Accessing multiple user records

Accessing multiple user records was created by philiplardner
Hi,

I have created a script that pulls data from the currently logged-in user and places it in a PDF document for the user to download, using the CB Foundation API - www.allmysocials.com/index.php?option=com_flexicontent&view=items&id=231:include-api-externally and the code snippet from here - www.allmysocials.com/directory/tutorials/item/232-establishing-user-object - to establish a $user object from which I can extract various fields of user information.

This works great for accessing the currently logged-in user's data, but I also need to develop a script that will allow an administrator or manager to run a batch job to access user data from all (or specific) registered users in the database. What do I need to do to achieve this?

Second question: How do I get the CBsubs plan expiry date for the currently logged-in user? I can't figure out what CB field holds this date if any.

Thanks,

Phil.

Either create a list display that lists all the users and have a multi-checkbox to select them then a button that POSTs their IDs to your script or have your script support supplying an array of IDs. Either way your script needs to be updated to support a foreach loop to loop through an array of user ids.

No CB field does. It's stored in _cbsubs_subscriptions with the users subscription row (they can have multiple).
