 * Hi,
 * I see i need to take a support case here, since you dropped the free support 
   version on your website.
    The problem is as following: I have created a profile
   form, in which i have some fields with these settings: privacy: everyone visibility:
   edit mode only validate: unique metakey value is this field required: no can 
   user edit this field: yes
 * This are the main settings, apart from the name of the field and other default
   ones.
 * I call this form into a different from with do_shortcode, like this:
    <?php echo
   do_shortcode(‘[ultimatemember form_id=965]’); ?>
 * Now, whenever i try to edit this type of fields, in the page where i put this
   short code, i get the following message:
    “You must provide a unique value”
 * If i go into the default UM edit page of the profile, i can edit the fields without
   any problems.
    Can we have a fix for this issue, so that fields within such forms
   can be edited when they are called by shortcodes ?
 * Best Regards,
    Laguna Ocean
