Members directory page

Hi all,

Loving this plugin, just one thing - I'd like to have a page that lists all members, shows their Gravatar, user name, real name and their profile. So that members can search through other members.

Is this something that S2 could do ? If not, does anyone know of a plugin that will work with the S2 system and allow choice of display fields from the added registration fields you have created in S2?

I want users to be able to choose which fields to display publically.

If none of the above is possible.. maybe this should be added to the "new functions" list for S2?

many thanks in advance.

Hi there...

I too am pretty new to s2.
There are many who need this listing feature and near as I can tell it is on their to-do list but it is not here yet.

You might look at the Members List plugin as a temporary solution.
It has some nice features and I am sure it can be forced by editing some php to show the s2 custom fields but I have not figured it out yet.

There is also some php code out there which I am playing with which will print a user list of any fields you want onto one page.
The problem is, if you have 1000 users the page gets kind of long :shock:

Daine is right, there are plans for that feature. We are currently working on an extension for s2Member Pro that will be integrated to achieve a list of members that can be viewed publicly, and we have plans to make it customizable as well. We may have this ready for the release of s2Member Pro v1.6, around the end of April.

And the members list plugin is one others have tried and I understand worked fine with s2Member. I don't know about the latest versions, though. If you try, could you please let us know if they do? http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/members-list/

Another option may be to use BuddyPress. http://buddypress.org/about/story/

Hope that helps. :)

It was mentioned that the new members list feature coming in a release of s2Member in April would be customizable. Can you give an idea of what types of customizations might be available? This is a feature that I need for a project and I'd just like to get an idea of what the potential capabilities will be before I implement a temporary solution in the meantime.

Thank you!

It's too early to say, but we won't have to wait very long anyway. :)
