Thank you.

Hi @mikesuccess,

I am afraid, I am a bit confused about what you are exactly trying to do.

From the code that you have shared, it seems you need to display the user account details of the currently logged-in user using a shortcode.

Can you please briefly explain what you are exactly trying to do and where you need to display the data?

Kind Regards,
Nebu John

Hi Nebu,

I am creating a shortcode to diplay a field at front end. I am choosing telephone number {phone-1} from the registration form. What meta key to use inside my shortcode?

Thank you.

Hello @mikesuccess !

I trust you’re doing well today!

In this case, when creating the form you’ll need to add the custom meta fields like this (on the User Registration tab on the form’s edit screen):

The Label will become the meta_key in this case: https://imgur.com/a/YSMBt9l

And you can retrieve it using:

$phone = get_user_meta($user_id, 'phone', true);

Hope this helps!

Best regards,
Pawel
