Not able to display user meta until I manually update profile.

    Hello. I have some custom fields in the user profile, which I created manually through functions.php (as opposed to using a plugin like ACF). I have used your plugin to bulk import users and meta. After importing, I can see all the data is in the fields on the user profile.

    However, I also have a frontend page which displays each user’s meta using “get_user_meta”, and this does not show any of the meta on the front end until I go to that user’s profile and hit “Update Profile.” Is there a way to solve this? I’ve imported over 1000 users, and I can’t manually update each one.

    Thank you!

    lsterling03,

    It should work without any problem.

    How are you calling get_user_meta?

    Try to include a 3rd parameter with a true:
    echo get_user_meta( $user_id, $key, true );

    And tell me.

    As you have not answered, I suppose you fix it with it. I close this thread, if need anymore, write again.
