No Documentation for Displaying User Data

  • I need to display a list of Posts from a Custom Post Type (called Recaps), and condition it to only show a Post (Recap) if the currently signed in User ID matches the ID from the advanced custom field I created, which is a User field type.

    But there appears to be no way to do this and I cannot locate an documentation on how to achieve this.

    Name of field: recap_customers
    Field type: Users
    My current code:

    
    $args = array(
    	'orderby' => 'asc',
    	'post_type' => 'recap',
    );
    
    $recaps = get_posts( $args );
    
    foreach ( $recaps as $recap ) : setup_postdata( $recap );
    				
    	echo "<li>";
    		$users = get_field('recap_customer', $recap->ID);			
    		foreach ($users as $user) {
    			echo $user['user_id'];
    		}
    
    		echo '<h3><a href="' . get_permalink($recap->ID) . '">' . $recap->post_title . '</h3>';
    	echo "</li>";
    		
    endforeach;

    Can anyone help?

  • Here’s what I ended up doing, feedback is welcome though:

    echo "<ul>";
    
    	$args = array(
    		 'orderby' => 'asc',
    		 'post_type' => 'recap',
    	);
    	$recaps = get_posts( $args );
    	$user_ID = get_current_user_id();
    	
    	foreach ( $recaps as $recap ) : setup_postdata( $recap );
    						
    		// Get the User selected as Customer.
    		$field_key = "field_546162f4a416d";
    		$post_id = $recap->ID;
    		$field = get_field_object($field_key, $post_id);
    		$values = $field['value'];
    			
    		if ( in_array( 898, $values ) ) {
    			echo '<li><h3><a href="' . get_permalink($recap->ID) . '">' . $recap->post_title . '</a></h3></li>';
    		} else {
    			echo "<h4>You do not currently have any Recaps.</h4>";
    		}
    	
    	endforeach;
