This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
Us wpv-conditional shortcode to compare custom user field.
The information that I am looking for is in the wp_usermeta table. The condition would be something like, if meta_value eq 4 where user_id eq current user and meta_key eq "wpcf-privacy-level"
Solution:
You can get the current logged-in user's field "wpcf-privacy-level" value with shortcode:
[wpv-user field="wpcf-privacy-level"]
and use above shortcode in conditional, for example:
( '[wpv-user field="wpcf-privacy-level"]' eq '4' )

Tell us what you are trying to do?
I'm working in a multisite WP setting.
I have a user form with custom fields so that registered users can edit their own information. I would like to have a conditional output in a view that filters by one of the custom fields.
Specifically, one of my custom user fields is "privacy". There are different levels of privacy that would allow various amounts of user information to be displayed on my site. (eg 1=everything visible, 4=no information visible)
I'm not sure how to go about this, but what I am thinking is to use a custom conditional output to filter out pieces of information depending on the "privacy" setting for each user.
The information that I am looking for is in the wp_usermeta table. The condition would be something like, if meta_value eq 4 where user_id eq current user and meta_key eq "wpcf-privacy-level"
Is there a syntax for this sort of custom conditional output that I could use?
Or, am I doing this in a overly complicated way, in which case can you suggest a better way to accomplish my goal?
