I’ve found the following code that places custom fields into a user’s profile:
<?php
function extra_user_profile_fields( $user ) {
?>
<h3><?php _e("Roof Asset Information", "blank"); ?></h3>
<table class="form-table">
<tr>
<th><label for="facility"><?php _e("Facility"); ?></label></th>
<td>
<input type="text" name="facility" id="facility" value="<?php echo esc_attr(
get_the_author_meta( 'facility', $user->ID ) ); ?>" class="regular-text" /><br />
<span class="description"><?php _e("Please enter the facility name."); ?></span>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th><label for="roofsection"><?php _e("Roof Section"); ?></label></th>
<td>
<input type="text" name="roofsection" id="roofsection" value="<?php echo esc_attr(
get_the_author_meta( 'roofsection', $user->ID ) ); ?>" class="regular-text" /><br />
<span class="description"><?php _e("Please enter the roof section."); ?></span>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th><label for="footage"><?php _e("Sq. Feet"); ?></label></th>
<td>
<input type="text" name="footage" id="footage" value="<?php echo esc_attr(
get_the_author_meta( 'footage', $user->ID ) ); ?>" class="regular-text" /><br />
<span class="description"><?php _e("Please enter the square footage."); ?></span>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<?php }
add_action( 'personal_options_update', 'save_extra_user_profile_fields' );
add_action( 'edit_user_profile_update', 'save_extra_user_profile_fields' );
function save_extra_user_profile_fields( $user_id ) {
if ( !current_user_can( 'edit_user', $user_id ) ) { return false; }
update_user_meta( $user_id, 'facility', $_POST['facility'] );
update_user_meta( $user_id, 'roofsection', $_POST['roofsection'] );
update_user_meta( $user_id, 'footage', $_POST['footage'] );
}
Is there a way to add extra functionality to this code that makes it so only administrators can edit the custom fields?
Add this third line to all your inputs that you don’t want the non-admins to edit.
