IMPORTANT: High Priority Documentation Needed?

[admin]

Hi,

As you have noticed I started building a new, more organized documentation site here: http://userproplugin.com/userpro/docs/

I UNDERSTAND that you have pending projects and need some features or options documented asap, what I ask from you is to reply to this thread and tell me what shortcode or options you want to be documented in PRIORITY so I can do them first until we have a complete docs. These are HTML files so once they are complete I will attach them with main plugin as well instead of online version.

Thanks!

+1.

We are completely with you on this. This will save tons of time to you and to the plugin users.

The plugin is really excellent we just need the keys for the car :). Let me know if I can be of any help.

P.S. If the official docs take too much time for you to finish, would you consider simple text version for developers that we just can shorty look into. No necessary explanations inside, just shortcodes options list?

Thanks.

Hi there! I indeed want to complete the shortcode options list, please start and tell me which shortcodes you find as high priority and I’ll document its option asap.

[admin]

Here for example http://userproplugin.com/userpro/docs/#shortcodes

Do you want to start with shortcode options?

To start with shortcode options would be excellent.

I am interested mostly at the moment about all shortcode options available for:

1. template=memberlist
2. template=emd

Shortcode options which are telling us how to control (if possible):
– fields visibility,
– hide/show search,
– show search fields from custom UserPro fields,
– show only specific user roles,
– show only users having a specific custom field value,
– show only user verified by UserPro verification (the blue verified circle icon).

If I come around something else, I will write it down.

Thanks in a million!

Need the shortcodes/php API for the ‘Front end posting’, need to be able to remove fields from it etc.

Need php shortcodes to add user profile information to our own template pages, I dislike the need for extra pages and URL’s being created to display stuff.

Need to know how to disable the login/registration with the plugin (because it won’t let me login with my own login form).

The plugin is really great, but at the moment I feel like we can’t get the best out of it or integrate it properly with our sites.

(can’t edit my other post now)

We also need hooks to incorporate things into our themes, for example getting the user avatar on posts etc.

Shortcodes on how to customize the member list. specifically adding a “follow” button to it.

Front end posting shortcodes (and ideas how to implement this) (I want certain roles to have the ability to publish to my site, I want the posting shortcode to appear on only their profile page but not be viewable to anyone else, I want to control what they can post and where it posts to)

Posts by users shortcodes

You have many people like myself that are aesthetic designers not coders, I have some code guys but I like to do the little things myself. I suggest you include a shortcode example that has EVERY option in it, for those that want to simply copy/paste the shortcode and edit the options they choose. Then have a list of what the edits can be, like “changing 0 to 1 for this option does…”

I know that probably sounds silly to you but people like myself struggle with making shortcodes work. I can edit code very easily but creating it is harder (I’m learning though).

Here is some progress guys

How is it coming along?

Need php shortcodes to add user profile information to our own template pages, I dislike the need for extra pages and URL’s being created to display stuff.

If you want to display user profile information to your own templates, you can do that easily! Actually you can show any bit of info about any user you want, anywhere. I’ll document this part asap in the docs site for you.. and always eager for feedback

Hi,

Thank you for the great efforts you have putted into the update. Much appreciated for the memberlist shortcode.

One thing I am not seeing in the options and I would like to double check if this is possible with memberlist is:

I need to display only certain members that has in their profile a certain value for a specific custom field I created with UserPro.

As for example: the fields is called ‘Team’ and the options are ‘Team A’, ‘Team B’, ‘Team C’.

I need to list only the Team A members by using the member list short ode.

Is this possible and if yes, please add the shortcode option to the docs as I couldn’t find it.

Thanks.

If it is not possible please consider adding it. Thanks.

Looking forward to see the options for Enhanced Members Directory end shortcode. Thanks again.

I need to display only certain members that has in their profile a certain value for a specific custom field I created with UserPro.

Yes you can show members who have certain value for a specific custom field 🙂 I’ll add it to the docs and update you now. Thanks!

Who needs other priority docs added? 🙂

I would like to +1 idesignstudios suggestion for a comprehensive guide on all the different things you can do with the memberlist. Maybe make it really clear how to add multiple search/dropdowns. What i find confusing is where there should be spaces and comma’s etc. Also an explanation of the difference of between V1 anv V2.

I see you have added the shortcodes to the doc but it would be useful if you set out a few examples combining several parameters.

For example would this be the correct way to set out the shortcode?

[userpro template=memberlist_v2=1 memberlist_paginate=1 per_page=12 memberlist_default_search=1]

I find this aspect of the member directory a bit confusing

Thanks

[admin]

[userpro template=memberlist_v2=1 memberlist_paginate=1 per_page=12 memberlist_default_search=1] this would correct. I’ve outlined all possible options for memberlist shortcode and you can combine them 🙂 Nothing wrong with that.

I also now added a tutorial on showing users with specific custom fields, and I’ll do one for showing specific roles…

Then I’ll document adding CUSTOM SEARCH FILTERS to member directory
