But I know that won't work out the way I want it to.

What is the correct way to iterate through the user table fields?]]> aaronkent Aug 12, 2015, 07:22 PM https://forums.modx.com/thread/97995/is-there-a-way-to-iterate-through-the-user-object-and-set-the-values-of-the-user-table-into-a-placeholders-array#dis-post-529933 <![CDATA[Re: Is there a way to iterate through the user object and set the values of the user table into a $placeholders array?]]> https://forums.modx.com/thread/97995/is-there-a-way-to-iterate-through-the-user-object-and-set-the-values-of-the-user-table-into-a-placeholders-array#dis-post-530072 Quote from: BobRay at Aug 13, 2015, 09:22 PM
You might look at ClassExtender for storing the extra user information.

To set placeholders with a prefix:

$user = $modx->getObjectGraph('modUser', '{"Profile":{}}', $userId); 
$fields = $user->toArray();
unset($fields['password'], $fields['cachepwd'], $fields['salt'], $fields['hash_class'] );
if ($user->Profile) {
   $fields = array_merge($user->Profile->toArray(), $fields);
}
 
$modx->toPlaceholders($fields, 'fi');
  
return $modx->getChunk('UserChunk');


You can do whatever you want with the $fields array before calling toPlaceholders().

Thanks again, BobRay! I've been searching for a couple days trying to figure out the trick to doing this. Now I know. I'll take a look at that article also.]]> aaronkent Aug 14, 2015, 06:18 PM https://forums.modx.com/thread/97995/is-there-a-way-to-iterate-through-the-user-object-and-set-the-values-of-the-user-table-into-a-placeholders-array#dis-post-530072 <![CDATA[Re: Is there a way to iterate through the user object and set the values of the user table into a $placeholders array?

Ah, sorry. That's way easier. Just use the Profile snippet (part of the Login package).

$user = $modx->getObjectGraph('modUser', '{"Profile":{}}', $userId);

Is there a way to set a prefix on the placeholders using this method?

I prefer to do it with code because I have my own pre-processor gathering other custom data for the user settings such as language preference and display name/alias. I also have a myriad of settings in another table for privacy settings, user blocking, and security.]]> aaronkent Aug 13, 2015, 02:58 PM https://forums.modx.com/thread/97995/is-there-a-way-to-iterate-through-the-user-object-and-set-the-values-of-the-user-table-into-a-placeholders-array#dis-post-530008 <![CDATA[Re: Is there a way to iterate through the user object and set the values of the user table into a $placeholders array?]]> https://forums.modx.com/thread/97995/is-there-a-way-to-iterate-through-the-user-object-and-set-the-values-of-the-user-table-into-a-placeholders-array#dis-post-530006

If you prefer to do it in code, it's just like my example above without the loop, and with getObjectGraph() instead of getCollectionGraph().

$user = $modx->getObjectGraph('modUser', '{"Profile":{}}', $userId); 
$fields = $user->toArray();
unset($fields['password'], $fields['cachepwd'], $fields['salt'], $fields['hash_class'] );
if ($user->Profile) {
   $fields = array_merge($user->Profile->toArray(), $fields);
}
  
$output .= $modx->getChunk('UserChunk', $fields);

OK, I see how that works. My placeholders are going to need to be [[!+fi.fieldname]] to work with formit. How do I amend the placeholders that are output?]]> aaronkent Aug 13, 2015, 02:28 PM https://forums.modx.com/thread/97995/is-there-a-way-to-iterate-through-the-user-object-and-set-the-values-of-the-user-table-into-a-placeholders-array#dis-post-530004 <![CDATA[Re: Is there a way to iterate through the user object and set the values of the user table into a $placeholders array?]]> https://forums.modx.com/thread/97995/is-there-a-way-to-iterate-through-the-user-object-and-set-the-values-of-the-user-table-into-a-placeholders-array#dis-post-530001

I'm not not clear what you're trying to do, but this might be what you want:

Create a Tpl chunk called UserChunk with the fields you want to show and some formatting:

<p>
   Username: [[+username]]

   email: [[+email]]

   Full Name: [[+fullname]]

   etc.
</p>


Put this code in your snippet
$users = $modx->getCollectionGraph('modUser', '{"Profile":{}}');

$output = "<h3>User List</h3>";

foreach($users as $user) {
    $fields = $user->toArray();
    unset($fields['password'], $fields['cachepwd'], $fields['salt'], $fields['hash_class'] );
    if ($user->Profile) {
        $fields = array_merge($user->Profile->toArray(), $fields);
    }
 
    $output .= $modx->getChunk('UserChunk', $fields);
}

return $output;

Thanks for your reply, BobRay.

That's a great example of iterating through multiple users, however, I would like to iterate through every field of a single user. I am trying to build a loop that will assign each of a single user's fields into a $placeholders array. So far it seems like I have to use the $user->get('field') to get each of the users fields from the database. I really wish I could iterate through a single users database fields in a loop rather than write out numerous get() calls.]]> aaronkent Aug 13, 2015, 01:45 PM https://forums.modx.com/thread/97995/is-there-a-way-to-iterate-through-the-user-object-and-set-the-values-of-the-user-table-into-a-placeholders-array#dis-post-529998 <![CDATA[Re: Is there a way to iterate through the user object and set the values of the user table into a $placeholders array?]]> https://forums.modx.com/thread/97995/is-there-a-way-to-iterate-through-the-user-object-and-set-the-values-of-the-user-table-into-a-placeholders-array#dis-post-529937
