The amr-users reporting plugin offers formatting functions for various fields.
Existing pre-defined special formatting
Many fields have pre-defined formatting. the functions are prefixed with ausers_format_, followed by the ‘internal’ field name. See the ‘nice names’ page to find the internal names.
For example for field ‘user_registered’, the function is called
ausers_format_user_registered
The function formats the field value as a ‘days ago’ field with a hover link showing the actual date and time.
See ausers-pluggable.php for examples
Your own formatting?
- To create your own formatting, write your own little site specific plugin and create a formatting function with the right name structure for your field as above.
- The plugin will check if a suitable function has been defined for a field it is formatting. If it does not exist, it will just output the value.
- If you define your own function, the plugin will not use it’s functions
- Special note for S2member users. Due to way S2 member creates it’s user fields, when creating the formatting function name, please do the following:
- any hyphens in the field name become underscores
Field Formatting Function Examples
- ausers_format_avatar

In the Future?
- Future versions of the plugin may have the ability to detect a field type (link, image) or for you to tell it what your special fields are (boolean values, image) so that it can format accordingly.
- Stay tuned, maybe add a note in the feature requests part of the forum
