    Hi - I can't get Metabox custom field "user_email" to display on Beaver Builder HTML module (or Heading, etc). Doesn't make any sense to me why that is.

    I spoke with their support, and they told me to reach our to you, as they said "The Metabox team actually did the integration for Themer on their end".

    Here are some pertinent screenshots: https://imgur.com/a/P31aO1T

    Hello Sam,

    The field ID is user_email which is the default field ID of WordPress and the custom field created by Meta Box does not work in the admin area so you will not see anything output with Beaver Builder.

    You can try to change the field ID to another one like my_user_email, add the value for the field and recheck this issue.

    Please read more about the default field IDs here https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-user-profile/#default-fields

    Hi Peter - Jist so we’re on the same page, I need to BOTH be able to edit the email address field that is provided from the Registration’s email field (via MB user profile shirt code) and display this same field. Your method sounds like we’re breaking this, as there’s now going’s to be a second email field.

    Thanks
    Sam

    Hello,

    Yes, I understand this case. Actually, the user_email is not a custom field when saving the user profile. If you check the database, it is saved to the table wp_users, not the table wp_usermeta. Using the Meta Box custom field to relocate it on the page is a hacky way.

    I hope that makes sense.
