Fetching User information

Tuesday 04 May 2010 6:59:51 am

Hi guys,

I am working on a website in which users will register from the public website. Once registered, user can search other users that are already registered on the website.

The search result will display name of the registered user, few other selective information from user class in a list. Now in the search result list, name of the user will be a link, when clicked will display all the information related to that user.

Is that possible, what is the best method?

I tried few roles and policies, it seems current logged in user cannot access information related to other user.

Hello,

Users under ezpublish are managed in the same ways that the content, except that it is in another root node that has the node_id equal to 5, and another section "Users".

So I advice you to create a new section called for exemple "Public Users" and in new profile you give access to module content > function read on the new created section.

I hope it's help you.

Anything you can do with content, you can do it with the users.

So to display the details of a user, you use content/view/full/[node_id] or even if you retrieve the node of the user, using his url alias (something like this : $user.url_alias )
