A Member list plugin

Hello Zac, I’ve just downloaded your plug-in and it works like a charm. This is just what I’ve been looking for, thank you!

I just wanted to ask you a question: since the output is an unordered list where members are sorted by id, is there a way to sort them alphabetically (or in any other way)? Or is it a feature you’re planning to add in the future?

Hi LonelyTraveller,

I just wanted to ask you a question: since the output is an unordered list where members are sorted by id, is there a way to sort them alphabetically (or in any other way)? Or is it a feature you’re planning to add in the future?

Can’t believe I didn’t think of that the first time ‘round.

I added the ability to be able to orderby screen_name, username, or member_id and sort asc or desc.

Just check the documentation for the plugin for the details.

You can get the latest copy from the original post.

Please let me know if you have any issues or other ideas.

Glad to hear it is helpful to you!

Cheers, Zac

Thanks Zac, I downloaded the latest version and it works perfectly! 😊

FYI:

Zac, this is a great plug-in and I was going to adapt it for my need (a Member List page with avatars and other info) until Sue Crocker helped me customise the Member List Rows segment of the Member Profile template accordingly.

(Nice use of the poll option BTW, which I hadn’t twigged to. More use should be made of it, methinks.)

@watershed,

Thanks for the link to the modification. I haven’t seen that the use of “path:” before. I will have to explore that.

Maybe I will add a few more features to it in the future, although your approach seems like a much simpler solution 😉

seems like a much simpler solution

Well, yes and no. It depends on how things play out with EE2 with regard to this issue. There was a promising hint yesterday from Sue.

Zac G, I found this post and your original plugin and needed a bit more flexibility, so I tweaked it a bit (ok, a lot).

The main thing I did was allow for multiple group ID declarations, and instead of sending back a UL, I turned the plugin into a tag pair, instead of a single tag. I also added a param to only get members who have any blog/entry posts.

edit: removed code, plugin available for download above.

Huge thanks Brian! I posted up your revisions as 1.2 in the original post.

This plugin seems like it should meet my need. Where do I find the documentation for it?

Hi qbmarketing, I never really put any documentation together for the plugin, just what’s in the plugin information page after you install it.

Please let me know if you have any questions, though, and I’ll try to answer them or update the plugin information.

Here is how you use my modified version:

Example with all the available parameters and variables in use. Only member_group is required. The rest are optional.

It basically lists all the members, and can optionally return the total number of posts/entries the member is the author of in the defined weblogs. has_posts will only return members who have a post in ANY weblog, but if you want to restrict what weblog they have posts in, just use the weblog=”” parameter.

{exp:members:loop member_group="6|7|8" has_posts="y" weblog="blog|news"} 
      <li><a href="#">{screen_name} ({total_posts}) {username} {member_id}</li>
  {/exp:members:loop}

Thanks @litzinger!

Any chance of getting this to work with 2.0?

Hey Macrike,

I’m doing some updates on a few other plugins this weekend and I should be able to bang that out 😊

I’ll post up as soon as I have a 2.0 version done, Zac
