Views - PHP Code for Profile Data
If you have a custom field in your user(s) profile and you're trying to pull that value into a view... here's the ticket.
If your profile field is called: "profile_custom_value"
1) For that view, add a new value under "Arguments"

Don't use the brackets - as noted.
global $user; $profile = profile_load_profile($user); return $user->profile_custom_value;
