I have been trying to fetch a user meta value for key ="user_listing_cat1" using ultimate member's(plugin) function um_fetch_user() but its not working
so I used a sql query
$query_results = $wpdb->get_results("
SELECT meta_value
FROM wp_usermeta
WHERE
user_id = '". $user_id ."'
AND meta_key ='submitted'
");
to fetch the data but it returns array in following format ..
array(1) {
[0]=> object(stdClass)#6 (1) {
["meta_value"]=> string(371) "a:10:{s:17:"user_listing_cat1";s:6:"Beauty";s:7:"form_id";s:5:"12097";s:9:"timestamp";s:10:"1473744616";s:7:"request";s:0:"";s:4:"role";s:6:"member";s:8:"_wpnonce";s:10:"253f5600af";s:16:"_wp_http_referer";s:18:"/add-your-listing/";s:10:"first_name";s:16:"Amritanshu Kalia";s:10:"user_email";s:22:"amritanshu@w3monks.com";s:10:"user_login";s:22:"amritanshu@w3monks.com";}"
}
}
