User search conditional brackets and exclude by usermeta values

[davsev]

Hey,
I try to use conditional [code]Conditional bracket examples
[/code] in user search.

I enter the brackets in the Advanced description field but it doesn’t work.

this is the code:
[code]
[<strong>שם החברה:</strong>{pie_text_7} &lt;br /&gt;]
[<strong>מספר רשיון תיווך:</strong>{pie_phone_10} &lt;br /&gt;]
[<strong>נייד:</strong>{pie_phone_10} &lt;br /&gt;]
[<strong>טלפון במשרד:</strong> {pie_phone_11}]
[/code]

Without the brackets it works great but I want to avoid empty lines.

Another issue,
How can I exclude from search result users that don’t have certain value in user meta field:
Something like this meta_query:

[code]$args = array(
‘role’ =&gt; ‘Author’,
‘meta_query’ =&gt; array(
‘relation’ =&gt; ‘AND’,
array(
‘key’ =&gt; ‘active’,
‘value’ =&gt; ‘1’,
‘compare’ =&gt; ‘=’,
),
array(
‘relation’ =&gt; ‘OR’,
array(
‘key’ =&gt; ‘wp_w3dev_user_banned’,
‘value’ =&gt; ‘1’,
‘compare’ =&gt; ‘!=’,
),
array(
‘key’ =&gt; ‘wp_w3dev_user_banned’,
‘compare’ =&gt; ‘NOT EXISTS’,
),
),
),
);[/code]

Thank you.

Hi,

1. The conditional brackets does not yet work with the user search fields, only with custom post types. The only solution is to use a custom code.
Add this custom code to the functions.php in your theme/child theme directory (copy from line 3 only!). Before editing, please make sure to have a full site back-up just in case!

2. This is unfortunately not possible via arguments, only with custom code to filter the users after the search process is finished. This is a bit more difficult, but this should help to get you started:

Works like magic!!!
Now just one more thing,
Is it possible to assign this filters to a specific form?
