First, place the code below into your theme’s functions.php file and don’t forget to save.
function wpb_user_registration_date($atts, $content = null ) { $userlogin = shortcode_atts( array( 'user' => FALSE, ), $atts ); $uname = $userlogin['user']; if ($uname!== FALSE) { $user = get_user_by( 'login', $uname ); if ($user == false) { $message ='Sorry no such user found.'; } else { $udata = get_userdata( $user->ID ); $registered = $udata->user_registered; $message = 'Member since: ' . date( "d F Y", strtotime( $registered ) ); } } else { $message = 'Please provide a username.'; } return $message; } add_shortcode('membersince', 'wpb_user_registration_date');
Once done, you can now use the shortcode in your blog posts and pages. Let’s say you want to display since when “John” is a registered user of your blog:
[membersince user=john]
That’s it!
