How do I capture the username for the user that is submitting a form?

Hello,

Please elaborate the question with more details.
How do you setup the user form? is it a creating new user form? are you using option "Auto-generate Username"?
How and where do you want to capture the username?

If you are going to capture the username with PHP codes, you can try Form API action hook "cred_save_data":
https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/cred-api/#cred_save_data

The first argument is user's ID, then use user's ID to get username, for example:

add_action('cred_save_data', 'my_save_data_action',10,2);
function my_save_data_action($user_id, $form_data)
{
    // if a specific form
    if ($form_data['id']==123)
    {
        $user_obj = get_user_by('id', $user_id);
        $user_name = $user_obj->user_login;
    }
}

Hi,

Thank you, that seems very useful..

Let me share some more details, and maybe you can recommend the best way to go about things.

What I'm building is a site to manage the data on people who have received grants..
- There will be a profile for each grantee
- They will have logins to regularly come in and put in a status report
- The profile and accounts will be created by the website managers
- These status reports will display on their profile in a section, using Views probably.

I'm trying to figure out the best way to keep these all linked together properly.

I hope this makes more sense?
