Recomendation for Directory Plugin?

[SarahG (Sarah Vanderweik)]

Hi All, I have been using S2 Member pro with the [WP Users Plugin] (https://wpusersplugin.com/) directory for sometime. Recently there was a security loophole and the developer never responded to people reporting it. After some sleuthing I see they have not posted anything anywhere since right around the time the pandemic started, and never responded to my recent technical support questions for plugins I bought newly from them.

Anyhow, I wondered if anyone has been using another plugin for their member directory that they want to recommend? I thought I would ask and see what people suggest.

Thanks, Kind Regards, S xo

Hi Sarah.

s2Member Pro has a directory you can use. https://s2member.com/kb-article/s2member-list-shortcode-documentation/

If you already have s2Member Pro, just add the s2Member-List shortcode to a page of your site.

Thanks Clavaque, exactly what I was looking for! One follow up question. I was looking around how to display the level within the directory info? Under - " Membership Levels (required, please customize these)" ie… Student Level 1, Standard Level 2 etc…

But I cannot seem to find the short code to display that within the directory? I have tried “level” within the string of short code or “user_field” and finally roles which display the technical name, like “s2member_level1” , which is functional, but I want the nice name. for users to see the organizational categories that they know.

Current example:

s2Member-List enable_list_search="yes" /] [s2Member-List-Search-Box /] [s2Member-List levels="1","2", "3", show_fields="user_title,user_last_name,user_first_name,user_research,country,user_university,user_email,prof_website,roles" /]

Help most welcome, thanks for the continued support for this plugin!

In the show_fields attribute, have you tried s2member_access_label?

See also from the s2Member-List article, if you want to customize the column header labels:

show_fields Optional, defaults to "" (an empty string, i.e., no fields). This is one of the most useful shortcode attributes. You can build a list of fields for each user. For instance, if you have Custom Registration/Profile Fields configured with s2Member you can provide a comma-delimited list of unique Field IDs here. If the user has a value for that field it will be displayed in the final output. e.g., show_fields="user_login,user_registered,custom_field_id" . The list of field IDs can include anything compatible with s2Member’s get_user_field() function.

TIP: By default, each field’s label is generically constructed from the field’s ID. However, you can customize the field labels (optionally) using a special : colon-delimited format as follows: show_fields="Field Label 1:field_id1,Field Label 2:field_id2" . This produces a table with the following format:

Field Label 1	Field Label 2
[value for field_id1]	[value for field_id2]
