 * Hello,
 * Besides from the standard fields which WP holds for a user eg.[username], [firstname],
   I want to use PieReg. for creating custom fields like Street, House_number, City
   etc.
    How to address these fields from other “services” like CF7-forms on the
   site? I also want these fields to be shown in the verified registration email
   to the user, like: “%Street% %House_number%, %City% ” or…??

 * Hi,
 * Pie Register provides custom fields, you can build your PR registration form 
   with these custom fields. Also, you can use these replacement keys in your PR
   email notification templates like verification email. Currently, there is no 
   option available to get other plugin’s form fields into PR registration form.
 * Click [here ](https://pieregister.com/manual/shortcuts/replacement-keys/)to learn
   more about replacement keys and click [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTL1pmd4uZA&t=7s)
   for a quick tutorial to how to build a form via Pie Register.

 * Hi,
 * I understand the basic functionality of the builder and it looks like a very 
   good solution – but I need to understand how I can use the custom fields from
   the User registration form, that is, make them available for pre-fill of other
   forms (CF7 eg.) and functions.
    Lets say a User have filled the reg.form with
   his Street name and house number, I want to fetch those 2 fields and pre-fill
   the related forms with the stored data from the user-profile – how to??
 * In relation to above.
    In the current setup I have some hundred users with std.
   WP-userdata and a handful of additional custom data fields – all of which can
   be exported to a CSV incl. those custom fields. Can I import all of these data
   into the Pie Reg. database?
 * Thanks for your support 🙂

 * Hi,
 * There is no option available in which you can sync PR custom fields with CF7 
   or any other forms fields. For that, you need to write code using CF7 provided
   action/hooks.
 * No, it’s not possible to import custom user data. It will have compatibility 
   issues, because PR plugin use different slugs for user registration fields.
 * Thanks

 * Hi,
 * Well, by digging a little deeper I found it is not that difficult after all 😉
 * The syntax is:
 * _[text* CF7-label-X1 id:CF7-label-X1 default:user\_pie\_text\_5]_
 * that will fill the CF7-label-X field with the pie_text-5 value from the user 
   DB (by PIE) – you can then edit or send the CF7-form as is.
    And you can CSS-
   format by ref. to the CF7 id. I believe this will work for other Forms as well…..
 * By means of an export of Users to a CSV-file the PIE-fields can be edited (or
   copy pasted to) by ref. to the appropriate “user_pie_” references.
    There are
   at least one good plugin which will do the trick of export/import of user data–
   to be used with care.
