 * Hi,
 * I have a client wanting to import some civi custom fields (like when they joined
   the group) into the WP user in User. I understand how to create custom user meta
   fields, but don’t get how to sync that metadata with the civi data only stored
   in civi. Is there a way to migrate certain custom fields from civi to custom 
   fields in the WP User?
 * Thank you.

 * Not with this plugin, I’m afraid.
 * For a one-time transfer, you would need to write some custom code to query CiviCRM
   and then transfer the content to the WordPress user’s user_meta.
 * For continuous sync, you would need to register a callback for the relevant CiviCRM
   hook and update WordPress from there. And vice versa, of course.
