wordpress get username

To get the current user's username in WordPress, you can use the following code:

$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
$username = $current_user->user_login;

Explanation: 1. wp_get_current_user(): This function returns the current user object. 2. $current_user: We store the current user object in this variable. 3. $username = $current_user->user_login;: We retrieve the username from the current user object and store it in the $username variable.
