I’m not sure if bbPress follows WordPress conventions, but WP has a global class called $WP-roles that holds the role information. So, starting from what you have, there is the role of the current user: $current_role = $user->roles[1]; Next, retrieve a list of all roles: $all_roles = $wp_roles->roles; Then, loop through $all_roles and find the … Read more
get_userdata() function is an alias of get_user_by(‘ID’) function. Use this code: $username=”your user name”; $user = get_user_by(‘login’, $username); It will return WP_User object on success, or false on failure. See Codex. REST API: http://example.com/wp-json/wp/v2/users/<id>
Password is not unique all the time. According to worst password statistics, password is the most used Password of all time. I’m pretty sure some of your users too use that password. So multiple rows will contain the same hash. Hence its not possible. By the way, this is a weird question.

How to customize wp_signon()
A solution I have found is to manipulate the entry after submission using the following: function submit_as_user_proxy( $form ) { $id = null; $proxy_user_meta = null; $user_role=””; $field_existing_users = null; $field_signed_up_as = null; foreach ( $form[‘fields’] as &$field ) { if ( false !== strpos( $field->cssClass, ‘existing_users’ ) ) { $field_existing_users = &$field; } if … Read more
I had a very similar situation, but I am using it for a family member with an illness to provide updates to the wider friends and family without relying on the primary caretaker to give these updates and a blog seemed the best way. We also wanted to allow people to add comments to the … Read more
Ok, I got it figured out. For some reason, current_user_can was returning false when an admin went to edit other user’s posts… I have no idea how admins lost the ability to do this, but putting this into functions.php is a workable bandaid that restores admin edit capabilities; $administrator = get_role(‘administrator’); $administrator->add_cap(‘edit_others_posts’);
I used this so a teacher would mark what courses the students were subscribed to. This is a generic version of that code, using only one extra field. Admin view Other users view <?php /* Plugin Name: Admin User Fields */ add_action( ‘admin_init’, ‘wpse_70265_init’); function wpse_70265_init() { if( current_user_can( ‘administrator’ ) ) { add_action( ‘show_user_profile’, … Read more
This is dependant on your theme/plugins so it’s impossible to answer, as s_ha_dum mentioned. For example some themes output the author name in the body as a class like <body class=”author-keanu”> or maybe they just use the author id like <body class=”archive author-22″> and then you can check the author by going to www.example.com/?author=22 and … Read more
