Using PHP, I would like to get a custom member field of the currently logged in member.

I would like to do something like this.

$this->EE->session->userdata ['custom_member_field'];

  Where custom_member_field is the name of the custom member field.

I notice in the user guide doc that custom fields are not part of the session class.

How could I go about doing this?
Thanks

UPDATE:
I think the answer can be found here.  This may also help using a 3rd party plug-in.

Do you have to use PHP? I only ask as there is a Custom Profile Data Tag which can bring back this information for you should you need it.

Failing that you would need to use a custom SQL query to get the information you need here.

Hope that helps a bit.

Best wishes,

Mark
