      Hello, in order to perform operations out of the data that is saved in the DB, is there an easy way or helper function to query values quickly into an array?

      I looked around in forum and hlpe files, but couldn’t find anything.
      This function seemed like another way to save data , piklist_get_file_data.

      Any help or code appreciated.

      @seanster– You can use any standard WordPress function to grab data from the db.

      get_post_meta

      get_post_custom

      get_option

      etc.

      What sort of data do you want to retrieve?

      @ Steve, thank you! For some reason I thought the data was saved diffently in an array. Just need data from the user profile, from additional fields.

      By thew way, in the standard user forms, I found remove Twitter, AOL scripts to remove those fields, but can’t see to do that for “URL” and “about me”

      Thanks

      @seanster– In most cases Piklist does NOT save data as an array. The exceptions are add-more fields, and grouped fields with a field parameter defined.

      For User Meta, you can just use the standard WordPress function get_user_meta().

      I just checked wp-admin/user-edit.php and there are no actions to remove those items. You will have to do it with CSS.
