getting user_id in buddypress profile page

[BenderisGreat]

This is likely very simple, but I am having an issue with it.

I am using

<?php
global $wpdb, $userdata, $current_user;
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
$userid = $current_user->ID;
?>


I can echo out $userid and it shows the correct user ID, but when I put it
into the form submit;

$wpdb->insert(wp_jo_plugin_options, array (
'user_id' => $userid,
'length' => $_POST['length'],
'girth' => $_POST['girth'],
'date' => $_POST['date'],

it just posts a 0 to the database. Am I doing something wrong here? It
seems very straight forward, never had an issue with such a simple task.
But trying to add this code to buddypress is a real hassle.

Shouldn't you be using double quotes around your vars (associative array
syntax)?

I don't see anything wrong with that. Try changing it to

'user_id' => get_current_user_id(),

Are you sure that $userid is being set above your insert code?

In the below code the first argument has to be a string so you should
put the table name in quotes. Also use $wpdb->prefix to refer to the
table prefix instead of "wp_" because this is something that can be
changed when installing wordpress and varies in multi site installs.

$wpdb->insert(wp_jo_plugin_options, array (
'user_id' => $userid,
'length' => $_POST['length'],
'girth' => $_POST['girth'],
'date' => $_POST['date'],
)
);

If you want to use the global variable $current_user why call
wp_get_current_user again?

Finally there is this:

"Use the init or any subsequent action to call this function. Calling
it outside of an action can lead to troubles. See #14024 for details. "
