integrate with an external LMS

[RMA]

I am trying to integrate with an external LMS. This LMS plugin requires a few properties witch is extracted from the current logged in user. The plugin that we are creating is using the built in wordpress functions to get the user. "wp_get_current_user()", "is_user_logged_in()","get_current_user_id()". We then add a shortcode to the "LMS -> Unit", witch will pull the external content into an iframe. But without the current user context, it cannot function. When tested outside the course/unit page, it works. When using the shortcode inside the course page it does not get the current logged in user. So my question is, how can we modify this plugin to get the current logged in user so we can extract the following required fields: "user_email","user_firstname","user_lastname","user_id" Do you have some global function that the plugin can use to extract this info from the current logged in user?

Here is how you can add to content : please try adding this given code in your wplms-customizer.php file in wplms customizer plugin : this code will append your user id based dynamic content to the unit content .

add_filter( 'bp_course_api_get_user_course_status_item',function($return, $request ){
    $body = json_decode($request->get_body(),true);
    if(!empty($body['token']) && is_numeric($request['course'])){
        
        $user = apply_filters('vibebp_api_get_user_from_token','',$body['token']);
        $user_id = $user->id;
    }
    if(!empty($user_id)){
        //do your thing here and add the content to :

        ob_start();
       echo 'your dynamic content';

        
          

        $cont =  ob_get_clean();

        $return['content'] .= $cont;//here the content is appending in api call return 
    }

    return $return;
},10,2);
