I have wpForo user custom field plugin. I want to fetch the custom field data in the member's list. But it returns a string of all the data. But I want to retrieve only one field. Please check the screenshot below. I only want the city data

It's a JSON data, you can decode it using json_decode() PHP function: https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.json-decode.php#example-3446
Also, as a quick solution, you can use the wpForo function which returns user field by user id:
<?php wpforo_user_field( 'city', $member['ID']); ?>

Hey @tomson,
Thank you so much. This worked perfectly. I have another query, where I am struggling. How we can use the custom field data in our template?
Here I want to use custom field data.

I'm sorry, but we don't provide template customization support. This is all on you. If you're PHP developer, you can ask for files or functions. And you should read this documentation to see who it could be customized in update safe way:
- wpForo Template Files: https://wpforo.com/docs/root/forum-themes/theme-files/
- wpForo template File Customization: https://wpforo.com/docs/root/forum-themes/theme-customization/
