Trying to list all the name of users in a particular group.

Permalink 1 user found helpful
I have a group called Test_Group, and a custom attribute with handle full_name. I would like to list out the value of full_name for all the users in the this group. Here is my attempt so far:


$gSelection = "Test_Group";
    Loader::model('user_list');
    Loader::model('user');
    Loader::model('userinfo');
    $ul = new UserList();
    $ul->filterByGroup($gSelection);
    foreach ($ul as $u) {
   $ui = UserInfo::getByID($ul->getUserID());
   echo $ui->getAttribute('full_name');
   echo "<br>";
   }


The problem is
echo $ui->getAttribute('full_name');
gives the error:
Fatal error: Call to a member function getAttribute() on a non-object

I tried wrapping it in an if statement:
if(is_object($ui)){
   echo $ui->getAttribute('full_name');
    }

But then nothing at all prints.

Haven't tested this but shouldn't $ul->getUserID be $u->getUserID

$u is the individual user from which you are pulling the user attribute 'full_name'.

I had originally thought that, but it gives the error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function getUserID() on a non-object

putting 
if(is_object($u)){
   $ui = UserInfo::getByID($u->getUserID());
}

again results in no output.

Just to be clear, there is currently only one user in this group, called test_user with full name Test User.

Try this loop:
foreach($ul->getPage() as $u) {
  $ui = UserInfo::getByID($u->getUserID());
  echo "First Name: " . $ui->getAttribute('full_name') . "<br />";
}

It works! Thank you.

I'm having an additional problem with this - it only lists the first ten users in the group (which now has 28 members).
My code is now:
Loader::model('user_list');
Loader::model('userinfo');
$ul = new UserList();
$ul->filterByGroup("Test_Group");
foreach($ul->getPage() as $u) {
    $ui = UserInfo::getByID($u->getUserID());
    $name =  $ui->getAttribute('full_name');
    echo "Name: ".$name."</br>";
}



For some reason this userList $ul has only ten elements - trying to access anything after the tenth returns null. I'm stumped as to why.

The default 'pagination' on the user_list is 10 so try tossing this in just before the foreach loop :

$ul->setItemsPerPage( 100 ); //set to whatever value


You can also try putting this in at the bottom of the page if that makes sense:

<?php echo $ul->displayPagingV2()?>

I think you can use 'all' in place of a numeric value as well

"All" doesn't seem to work (with or without quotes).

Yes, that fixed it. Once again, thank you for your prompt reply!
