Default Custom User Values

    Hello,
    I have created several custom user fields to collect additional user info such as address, phone, among others that are not native to WordPress.

    I am able to successfully pre-fill fields such as name and email using the info found at this post on the CF7 website. But this only seems to work for native WordPress user fields.

    However, I cannot seem to do the same for the custom fields. I would like the user’s phone number, address, and others to be pre-filled for logged in users.

    I have tried using the Contact Form 7 Dynamic extension plugin but I have not been successful. I have made sure that the field types in the form are the same field types of the custom user data just to be sure.

    May someone please help with this?
    P.S: I created the custom fields using Cimy User Extra Fields plugin.
    Thanks

    I found a great fix for this, the trick is to use Advanced Custom Fields plugin to create new user profile fields and then use the default pre-fill functionality in contact form 7. I works perfectly.

    Other plugins do not seem to be able to use the default CF7 pre-fill function due to the way they create the custom fields.
