Create a form with normal user data

    I know how to create a form so that users can update their meta date upon submission, but how do I add the user data that’s already there?

    For example: I want my users to be able to update their e-mail address, along with other options which are meta data. The meta data is no problem, but how do I include the user_email that already there? Do I have to create a meta data email field for each user? And if so, how do I assign that variable the same value as the email they already have?

    The [umm profile] short code can be used to display the entire user profile editor anyplace a short code can be used.

    Hmm is there a way to label the meta data in the user profile?

    Each section in the profile has a heading like ‘Personal Options, Name, Contact Info, etc.’ But the custom meta data fields are just sort of floating at the bottom. Is there a way to add a header to it?

    Like the [umm profile hide=”etc, etc”] is super useful and I have it almost perfect… Is there a way to modify/add those h3 headings, other than hide? Or a way to move the meta data around? Like put it under specific headings? Ex: I have a custom meta data field for telephone numbers, can I get it to show up under the Contact Info heading?

    You can modify UMM’s HTML markup in UMM’s settings panel. You can sort the order in which the fields are displayed by going to UMM > Edit Custom Meta, then drag-and-drop items into the preferred position. This only allows you to sort your custom fields and not the core profile fields.
