I’m glad that the issue is resolved. Your 2nd code looks correct as you need to retrieve user data from user table. * If you run into any other issues, please feel free to let us know. * [akaii](https://wordpress.org/support/users/akaii/) * (@akaii) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-field-49/#post-6937742) * Hello, I am having a similar problem. * I wanted to create a segment in my list of those how have registered on the website and those are just signed up on the list. And ideally have new website registrations be added into that segment. * I decided the best way was to sync the username and create a segment within the list of those with a username (because it would mean they are registered on the website. * I added the following to the functions.php: * add_filter( ‘mailchimp_sync_user_data’, function( $data, $user) { $data[‘UNAME’] = $user->user_login; return $data; }, 10, 2 ); * But it doesn’t seem to have been added to the fields in the “wordpress user sync option”. * I’ve added Username as a field in the Mailchimp list and assigned it UNAME as the mergetag. * In the mailchimp wordpress sync settings, the drop down shows me email, First name, and last name. * Any ideas? * Plugin Contributor [Harish Chouhan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hchouhan/) * (@hchouhan) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-field-49/#post-6937744) * Hey Akaii, * Please note, to sync username to your MailChimp.com list, you do not need to use our filter. 1. First go to “MailChimp for WP” in your WordPress backend and click on the “Renew MailChimp Lists” button. This will pull in data about the new UNAME field you have created. 2. Next to go “MailChimp for WP > User Sync” and and in the additional fields section, add `user_login` in the “User field” and then from the dropdown select field next to it, please select the “UNAME” field you have created. 3. Click Save changes and you are good to go. * This should now sync the username of a user to the new field you have created in your MailChimp.com List. * [akaii](https://wordpress.org/support/users/akaii/) * (@akaii) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-field-49/#post-6937745) * Thank you!

Can you please make sure that you’re on the latest version of both [MailChimp for WordPress](https://wordpress.org/plugins/mailchimp-for-wp/) itself and the [MailChimp User Sync](https://wordpress.org/plugins/mailchimp-sync/) add-on? * If you are, are you sure that: * – Delated users are not unsubscribed from your MailChimp list – Updating a user profile in WordPress doesn’t update the MailChimp subscriber, even though your** MailChimp > User Sync** settings are configured. * If either of those issues are still happening, do you see anything in your Debug Log on **MailChimp for WP > Other**? * Thanks!
