I could only find reference to update_user_meta function, but I did find update_{$meta_type}_metadata. $prev_value was empty in that, but because it triggers before the update I was able to get the value from the db and compare to the posted value. Super useful. Simplified everything and eliminated any need for profile_update. Thanks!

I was too tunnel-visioned in that post. The API call does work on the second trigger generally. There’s a separate barrier specifically for updating emails that is related to the API. I’m still curious what the reasoning for the second trigger is. I can imagine that creating issues.

Hi Nick. I’m happy to hear that you were able to replicate the obstacle and have started the process to address it. I understand that there is no guarantees of timeline, but if there are any updates I would appreciate it if you could share them with me.
