I want to display a user's ID so that they can see it on their profile (ideally so only they can see it).
I am not entirely sure of the best way to do this. I do know that I should create a field item, and place it in the correct tab but not sure how I would get the field to pull the user's ID from the database to display it.
Is there a particular field type I should use and does it require some code to extract the ID to display it?
I also know I can work with the Privacy Plugin to restrict its visibility.
User ID can be displayed by using [user_id] in a Custom HTML field. You can then use CB Conditionals to condition the field to only be displayed to the profile owner.
