I have added a field named "Current Status" in the user profile where the users fill their information e.g. E-mail, Website etc. How can I make this field displayed only for authors and also display it in the admin/author bar so they can update it without going to profile area? Thanks in advance!

You can use get_currentuserinfo() to find out a user's role. To modify the wordpress admin bar, use the admin bar render hook.

  • What if you use similar code to this and instead of having an HTML address, have a JavaScript pseudo protocol that calls something similar to a lightbox (without fading the background).
