Custom User Fields not showing in WordPress back end

Hi Long, thank you for coming back to me.
I'm a bit confused here - the code I am using (in my functions.php) is the code generated by Meta Box.
So are you saying that the code which Meta Box generates, is incorrect?
If so, why does it not generate the correct code? I don't understand.

Please see my attached screenshots (which are labelled from 1 to 5 in order), showing you what I am doing. I am thinking maybe you did not understand my original question, as there is no mention at all in the documentation for Meta Box, that I need to do what you have said in your response, to add a custom user field?

Thanks again for your help,

Keith

Hi Long, yes you explained, but I did not understand - your explanation was not very helpful, just redirecting me to a documentation page is not very helpful. Also your documentation is not very good (maybe for experienced Meta Box users it is, but not for someone like me who is using Meta Box for the first time).

An example would be to say
"Keith, to achieve what you need, add this code to your functions.php file" followed by the line of code (that is the level of support I have had at Advanced Custom Fields or Toolset).

Anyway - so now, I think I understand what you are saying, that because when I am logged in as the Administrator role, that because that is not the 'Customer' role, that I can't see the field.

So what I need to do, is for the Administrator role to be able to edit the field, BUT the Customer role to just be able to view their 'Company' field when logged in (but NOT to be able to edit it).

Am I correct in saying that I just need to add this line of code to my code in the original thread:

'edited_user_role' => 'administrator',

Is that right? As like I say, your documentation is not very good for a beginner user, there isn't even an example syntax provided for the 'edited_user_role'.

Please consider improving your documentation for beginner users. Also, please can you add it to the 'settings' tab for a field group, so that I can get this code generated correctly by Meta Box itself (as I'm guessing that is the whole point of using Meta Box).

Many thanks for your help,

Keith

So I tried this code in my functions.php file:

add_filter( 'rwmb_meta_boxes', 'show_customer_company_name' );

function show_customer_company_name( $meta_boxes ) {
    $prefix = '';

    $meta_boxes[] = [
        'title'   => __( 'Customer', 'customer-company-name' ),
        'id'      => 'customer',
        'type'    => 'user',
        'include' => [
            'relation'  => 'OR',
            'user_role' => ['customer'],
            'edited_user_role' => ['administrator'],
        ],
        'fields'  => [
            [
                'name'          => __( 'Company', 'customer-company-name' ),
                'id'            => $prefix . 'customer_company',
                'type'          => 'text',
                'admin_columns' => 'after title',
            ],
        ],
    ];

    return $meta_boxes;
}

It did NOT work. I am logged in the WordPress back end as Administrator, I go to User > test-customer1 (which has the role of Customer) and I still cannot see my custom field 🙁

Please can you provide me with workable code to try in my functions.php file which will fix this.

Many thanks,

Keith
