[Resolved] Query Loop of User Category?

Hi there,

what is a User Category ?

Hi Tom,

As the user is not a custom post type, so query loop can not achieve what you are looking for unfortunately.

Query loop block can not achieve query users, it will require custom coding.

However, you can use something like this to create a shortcode [my_user_list]:

add_shortcode( 'my_user_list', function() {
    ob_start();
  // Retrieve all users with the "admin" role
$args = array(
    'role' => 'administrator',
    'orderby' => 'user_nicename',
    'order' => 'ASC'
);
$users = get_users( $args );

foreach ( $users as $user ) {
    echo '<p>' . esc_html( $user->display_name ) . '</p>';
}

// Retrieve all users with the "Contributor" role
$args = array(
    'role' => 'contributor',
    'orderby' => 'user_nicename',
    'order' => 'ASC'
);
$users = get_users( $args );

foreach ( $users as $user ) {
    echo '<p>' . esc_html( $user->display_name ) . '</p>';
}

    return ob_get_clean();
} );

No Problem 🙂
