For the non coders, the following user list plugin may be useful to achieve various user queries and lists - recently launched for http://weblogtoolscollection.com/pluginblog/2009/07/31/amr-users-plugin-for-user-lists-and-reporting/.

It is aimed at being as configurable and generally useful as possible, so needs to be tested against various peoples different uses of the user data.

I’d be interested in feedback and feature ideas. I used it when doing a website using registerplus for extra user fields and subscribe2 and "your members" plugins and needing to get filtered and unified listings out,

It is of course also available at wordpress: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/amr-users/

Brandon, you can change the syntax from second example like

$wp_user_search = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT ID, display_name FROM $wpdb->users WHERE ID IN(1,2,3,4,5) ORDER BY ID");

IN(1,2,3,4,5) => thats the user ids to be listed.

Is there a way to only publish some users? I have users across the permission span whose information I would like to dynamically display on a staff page. I will from time to time allow a guest blogger access for a period but I don't want their bio on this page. I guess I'm asking if there is a way to "group" users through a custom field or something of that nature. Worst case scenario, I canjust create a page which lists posts on each person from the "staff" category or something, but then the bio information that page and and in their user record will be potentially out of sync.

I know this post is a little older, but thought I'd chime in... why not just use get_users_of_blog(). That gets all the user information you'd need, and you could simply write an array_filter() callback function to filter to a specific user role.

right. WP had include the roles and have secure the user_level. You can use the user_level and roles for different asks in code.

User levels are really overrated.. and are completely ignored by WP now.

Query for the roles directly.. However it is you're supposed to query roles..
