Use metadata from members profile in WP posts?

Hi!

I have a blog with alot of different contributors, both regular people and companies, i want to make 2 different post styles depending on if the user is a person or writing as a company.

I have used 2 radio buttons that the user can choose between “Private” and “Company” but how can i use the metadata from the Buddypress member profiles to use as an if statement?

I am sure this have been asked before but i can’t find it, i guess i am a crappy searcher!

Sorry to bump but seriously? Nobody know this or does it mean that this isn’t possible?

Use:
`bp_get_profile_field_data()`:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.2.9/bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-templatetags.php#L554

Pass your field ID and user ID through that function.

See this thread for an example:
