    If a Meta (num or string) value is selected, you have to specify the field searching from all the available.

Filters

If you don't want to display all Users you can limit them with some simple filters:

  • Roles, you can display only a range of user filtering them by their Role. Multiple roles are accepted.

  • User Field Filter, you can select only one user which contains a selected field (like an ACF Field) equal to a specified Value

Exclude

Maybe you don't want to display info about a specific user.

  • Exclude user, you can easily remove users from the list simply searching them.

  • Exclude Authors, enable it if you don't want to display Authors who never post an article.
