添加新字段以编辑用户页面

Question

I am trying to add a new field to my user edit page but I get this error

Notice: Object of class WP_User could not be converted to int in C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-includes\capabilities.php on line 49

Here is the code I use for the functions,

    static function my_extra_user_fields( $user_id ) {
        echo $user_id->ID;
    $user_meta = get_user_meta($user_id);
     if (!empty ($user_meta['_is_post_agent'][0])) {
     $check_true = $user_meta['_is_post_agent'][0]; 
         }
     else { 
         $check_true="false"; 
         }
     ?>
        <h3>Agent Author</h3>

        <table class="form-table">
            <tr>
                <th><label for="agent_author">Agent Author</label></th>
                <td>

                    <input type="checkbox" name="agent_author" value="is_author_agent"  <?php if($check_true == 'true') echo 'checked="checked"';?> >

                </td>
            </tr>
        </table>
    <?php }



    static function save_my_extra_user_fields( $user_id ) {

        if ( !current_user_can( 'edit_user', $user_id ) ) { 

               return false;

     }else{

            if(isset($_POST['agent_author']) && $_POST['agent_author'] == true) {

             update_user_meta( $user_id, '_is_post_agent', 'true');
                }
                elseif(isset($_POST['agent_author']) && $_POST['agent_author'] == false) {

                    update_user_meta( $user_id, '_is_post_agent', 'false');
                }
                     }
                         }

I would appreciate any help as to what I am doing wrong here!

Answer 1

get_user_meta() expects the first parameter to be an integer (or something that can be converted to an integer. If that parameter can't be converted to an integer, you will get that error.

Try switching line 3 above to:

$user_meta = get_user_meta($user_id->ID);

As per the Wordpress documentation, it is expecting that to be an integer.
