I have a list of all users on my website and I want to display the user role for each of those users but I can't seem to find a way to do that within the Views-plugin.

Hi Patrik,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

Unfortunately the only shortcode we have to handle, however with a bit of custom coding you can achieve it by doing this.

Add the following to your functions.php file.

// Add Shortcode
function getuser_role( $atts ) {

	// Attributes
	$atts = shortcode_atts(
		array(
			'user_id' => '',
		),
		$atts
	);

	$user_info = get_userdata($atts['user_id']);
	    
	      return implode(', ', $user_info->roles);
	   

}
add_shortcode( 'getuser_role', 'getuser_role' );

You can use the shortcode by doing this [getuser_role user_id='[wpv-user field="ID"]']

Please try this and let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Shane

Thank you, Shane.

For some reason it didn't work at first, but I changed the functions name from getuser_role to get_usersrole and then it worked perfectly.
