Answered Getting user profile fields in resources & chunks.

So we can do things like this to show information about the current user in chunks & resources:

[[+modx.user.id]] [[+modx.user.username]]

Great, but what about profile fields?

[[+modx.profile.fullname]] [[+modx.user.profile.fullname]]

neither of these work BTW - just guessing because if they are available, they don't appear to be documented.

can we get user profile fields in resources & chunks? [without writing a snippet]

[[+modx.user.id:userinfo=`fieldname`]]

It's at the end of the Output Modifiers documentation.

You can even access top-level extended fields using dot notation like this:

[[+modx.user.id:userinfo=`extended.name`]]

I'm not sure if there is any way to use this method for displaying nested extended values.

Thanks Susan, I figured there must be some way other than dumping the entire profile to placeholders.
