you can try this code $args = array( ‘meta_query’ => array( array( ‘key’ => ‘score’, ‘value’ => 0, ‘compare’ => ‘>’, ‘type’ => ‘numeric’ ) ), ‘orderby’ => ‘meta_value_num’, ‘number’ => 20 ); $suggested_user_query = new WP_User_Query( $args ); $users = $suggested_user_query->get_results(); echo ‘<div id=”user_suggest”>’; echo ‘<ul>’; foreach ($users as $user) { // get all … Read more

Where are you triggering the second code block (that includes is_user_logged_in())? That code may be triggered before set_current_user, which is called after plugins_loaded. I would take a look at the action reference and see if you are calling your check before WordPress is aware of the user.
Cookies, or even HTML5 local storage, seem like a good way to implement this. Here’s some basic code that could serve as a starting point. Post IDs are stored as CSV in the cookie. // Load current favourite posts from cookie $favposts = (isset($_COOKIE[‘favposts’])) ? explode(‘,’, (string) $_COOKIE[‘favposts’]) : array(); $favposts = array_map(‘absint’, $favposts); // … Read more
The easiest method of doing this would be to use the Gravity Forms plugin, it costs money, but it’s well worth the investment, and quickly pays for itself in saved development time
If I did understand well, we need to cache a value retrieved from another REST service, from the login to logout of the user on the wordpress installation, so we will hook into this wp_login to get the value and cache it using Transient API, Options API or a persistent caching plugin. add_action(‘wp_login’, ‘my_get_and_cache_rest_value’); function … Read more
