I am looking for a way to display/list all users by categories that they are assigned to. It is a functionality similar to Weblog Category Archive List but would be preformed on users.

The resulting output would be something like this:

<ul>
 <li>Slovakia
  <ul>
   <li>User A</li>
   <li>User B</li>
   <li>User C</li>
  </ul>
 </li>
 <li>Poland
  <ul>
   <li>User D</li>
   <li>User E</li>
   <li>User F</li>
  </ul>
 </li>
 <li>Czech Republic
  <ul>
   <li>User G</li>
   <li>User H</li>
   <li>User I</li>
  </ul>
</li>
</ul>

in case the users were assigned to those three categories: Slovakia, Poland, Czech Republic

Thanks in advance

OK I came up with a solution wrapping the {exp:user:users} in the standard EE {exp:weblog:categories} tag like this:

{exp:weblog:categories category_group="2" show="not 16|5" style="nested" show_empty="yes" weblog="weblog_name"}{category_name}
 <ul>
  {exp:user:users category="{category_id}" dynamic="off"}
   <li>{screen_name}</li>
  {/exp:user:users}
 </ul>
{/exp:weblog:categories}

This gives me exactly the list that I mentioned in my previous post. Even better, when I use the {path=} inside the <li> like:

<li><a href="{path=people}">{screen_name}</a></li>

I am getting an output

<li><a href="http://www.example.com/people/category/slovakia">{screen_name}</a></li>

Too bad that the Listing users by category from URL with the {exp:user:users} (Member list) tag does not work. It could be used automatically.

Not sure if this too much stress for the SQL requests but renders pretty quickly in my case.
