    Go to the list of your users and hover over the name of the user, then have a look at the status bar. Or click on “edit” and look at the URL.

    Sorry we didn’t put it clearly.

    We’re using the Formidable Form x GD Tabs (https://wpgeodirectory.com/formidable-forms-in-geodirectory-tabs/) and we wish to retrieve the AuthorID based on the post ID.

    We saw there’s a function to retrieve the email > geodir_get_post_meta($post_id, ‘geodir_email’);

    Anyway to retrieve the AuthorID?

    Hi,

    try this:

    $author_id=$post->post_author;

    It should work like in normal posts…

    Let us know if this helped,

    Thanks
