Get values from user fields anywhere
Let's say that you are currently developing a module, or editing a existing one, or maybe writing some code from your cck custom template. And you need to get the value(s) of one or some user field(s). (without any ::fieldname:: ).
You can call the code below everywhere!
$user =& JFactory::getUser();
if ( $user->id ) {
$profileId = CCK_DB_Result( 'SELECT contentid FROM #__jseblod_cck_users WHERE userid='.$user->id );
$profile = CCK_GET_Value( $profileId, array( 'phone', 'city', 'nationality' ) );
$user->bind( $profile );
}
Then you called your field by:
echo $user->city; echo $user->phone; echo $user->nationality;
