#  User Account

Use the {user} Smart Tags to retrieve information about the currently logged-in user. This Smart Tag can return the value of any property from the Joomla User object as long as you know the property's name.

 ```
{user.USER_PROPERTY}
```

Below is a list of this category's most popular Smart Tags.

## [{user.id}](#user-id)

Returns the ID of the user.

## [{user.name}](#user-name)

Returns the name of the user.

## [{user.firstname}](#user-firstname)

Returns the first name of the user.

## [{user.lastname}](#user-lastname)

Returns the last name of the user.

## [{user.login}](#user-login)

Returns the username of the user.

## [{user.email}](#user-email)

Returns the email address of the user.

## [{user.registerDate}](#user-registerdate)

Returns the registration date of the user.

## [{user.groups}](#user-groups)

Returns the IDs of the user groups comma-separated. Eg: 1,2,5.

## [{user.groupTitles}](#user-grouptitles)

Returns the titles of the user groups comma-separated. Eg: Public, Registered

## [{user.authLevels}](#user-authlevels)

Returns the IDs of the user access levels comma-separated. Eg: 1,2,6

## [{user.authLevelTitles}](#user-authleveltitles)

Returns the titles of the user access levels comma-separated. Eg: Public,Registered,Special

## [Custom Fields](#custom-fields)

To output a custom field value associated with the currently logged-in user, use:

 ```
{user.field.NAME}
```

Replace NAME with the name (not the label) of your custom field. For instance, if you have a custom field named age:

 ```
{user.field.age}
```

You can access additional properties of a custom field by appending the appropriate property name after the field name.

 ```
{user.field.NAME.rawvalue}
{user.field.NAME.id}
```

For advanced usage, including subforms, field labels and disabling content plugins check the full guide: [Using Custom Fields in Smart Tags](https://www.tassos.gr/docs/common/features/smart-tags/custom-fields)

## [Notes](#notes)

The following rules apply:

- All Smart Tags in this set will return an empty string if the user is not logged in.
- For security purposes, the “password” property can’t be accessed.
