How to show the [userpro template=card] of a user profile page?

If I have the shortcode [userpro template=card] in the sidebar and I visit the profile page of another user:

http://www.example.com/profile/john it will show in the sidebar my profile card. I would like to have the sidebar show the profile card of the profile user I am visiting in the case have the profile card show John’s card.

HI…yes this is what I am trying to do. In essence to show the card or template (in a sidebar) of the user profile URL that I am viewing/visiting.

I actually kind of solved one part of this issue with the [template=view user=author] added to the sidebar of my site so it now shows the template/card of the author being viewed but I now have an issue in that if the author has not made a POST to the site, the card or template is empty. One a post is made then the card / template displays info.

This is how the card works currently:


			case 'card':
				if (isset($args['user'])) {
					$try = get_user_by('login', $args['user']);
					$user_id = $try->ID;
					if ($args['user'] == 'author'){
						$user_id = get_the_author_meta('ID');
					}
				} else {
					if (userpro_is_logged_in()){
					$user_id = get_current_user_id();
					}
				}

case 'card':

if (isset($args['user'])) {

$try = get_user_by('login', $args['user']);

$user_id = $try->ID;

if ($args['user'] == 'author'){

$user_id = get_the_author_meta('ID');

}

} else {

if (userpro_is_logged_in()){

$user_id = get_current_user_id();

}

$user = custom user

or $user = author

else show logged in user CARD. 🙂

I mean to show card for author, on his posts [userpro template=card user=author] for a logged in user, you can juse use [userpro template=card] without user parameter. Hope that helps!

Hi,

Thanks for the help. Yes for the logged in user it works. I guess now what I need to solve is when that logged in user sees another users profile.

For this the user=author works well, the only issue or problem is that until that author has created a post his card or template view remains empty like this image: http://i.imgur.com/KlKrB8b.png.

Once that author makes a post then his display name, country badge etc… are shown. Is their a workaround for this so that the author=user displays the authors information (name, badge etc..) before the first post takes place?

Which code are you using ? which shows no info if user has no posts?

On the template=view user=author it shows just the default photo (when a post is created then is shows display info as well).

For the template-card user=author it is completely empty (shows nothing at all until the first post is published). Then the card shows user info.

Which code are you using ? which shows no info if user has no posts? The user=author should work only where an AUTHOR is identified. I think there’s a bit of misunderstanding in the implementation. That’s why I need to know which code are you trying and where?
