How to search Users?

How To
1

Hello,
I’m not sure if its stupid question but i didn’t find anything about it

I use all latest version of:

  • Bricksbuilder
  • Bricksforge
  • JetEngine
  • JetSmartfilter
  • JetSearch
  • Dynamicoo Shortcode

I build a custom Dashboard for a customer with a Section for registered Users as query loop.
I was able to filter the Users by status (from Metafield) with JetSmartfilter but i’m not able to search for one specific user via search field (username, firstname, lastname, email, etc…)

Does anybody has some Knoledge on this Topic?
Thank you in Advance
David

I answer my question myself :smiley: , in case other people are looking for that topic

Its kinda easy, it just didn’t came to my mind.

I used the JetSmartFilter (Search) with custom Query Variables to the custom meta Fields

Problem was in my case that it just can search for the jetengine custom fields. I couldn’t search for user_login, user_last_name, user_email etc… so the basic User fields

Solution:
You need to make also additional custom meta fields for those informations (for example user_login_b, user_last_name_b, user_email_b, etc…). When someone Register you can also update the user meta fields at the same time to fill your custom fields
This way you can after easily use JetSmartfilter (Search) to search for Users or their information

I know this could look like not a perfect solution but anyway.
If someone has a better one please let us know
