Get User ID from within a plugin
If you want current user id only then use get_current_user_id. because it reduce execution time. get_current_user_id get only current user id where wp_get_current_user get all user data. Else every things is perfect. $user_id = get_current_user_id(); $loc_statuss = $wpdb->get_row( “SELECT status FROM profile_location INNER JOIN relation_user ON profile_location.loc_id=relation_user.loc_id WHERE relation_user.user_id=”.$user_id ); $loc_status = $loc_statuss->status;
