Allow user to update all data from “My Account”?

    I set up UM with a registration form mapped to a few custom fields. This works and the fields are populated upon registration.

    But when I go to the My Account page, these fields are not present to update any of the data. What do I need to do? I have the extensions package. I thought that would activate them.

    Add this code snippet to your child-theme functions.php file
    or add it to the “Code Snippets” plugin:

    add_filter( 'um_account_tab_general_fields', 'my_um_account_mobile', 10, 2 );

function my_um_account_mobile( $args, $shortcode_args ) {

    $args .= ',phone_number,mobile_number';
    return $args;
}

    where you replace phone_number and mobile_number with your meta keys comma separated from the UM Registration form. Note string must start with a comma as these meta keys are added to the User Account tab predefined fields.

    Does not seem to work.

    My meta keys from Jetengine and the form are a match with the keys in the registration form, the data from the form properly populates the user account in the default WordPress “Edit User” interface, however, the My Account tab of UM Account does not show any of this data.

    Can you try to clear the UM user cache.

    UM Dashboard -> User Cache -> Clear cache of XX users

    Seems odd this is not part of the settings, as is partly the reason I purchased the Pro Bundle, so I wouldn’t have to play with code.

    If you have paid for UM Extensions you must email UM Developers for support.

    Thanks for tryingp @missveronicatv, i really appreciate it!

    I see they are taking a few days off. I cant wait and will just find another solution while I wait for a refund.

    Updating the fields in the Account page is an odd UM implementation.
    Account page is used for private and hidden data.

    Normal usage of UM is to have a profile page where registration fields are displayed for other users and edited by the profile user.

    I dont need public-facing profile pages. Im trying to build it so that all data is private to only website administrators and the users themselves. Sort of a Human Resources/Workplace website.

    I want a single private account page where the user can update their address, email address and all custom field data. The site also uses Woocommerce and don’t want them having a second account area just for Woocommerce. So I’m in a bind here.

    Do you have any WP caching plugin or web hosting caching active?

    Don’t cache pages Login, Register, Password Reset.
    Don’t cache pages Account and User (a profile page).

    I don’t. I deleted the plugin and all of it’s data. I give up. Thank you though for trying to help.

    Be well
