 * On my site, subscribing to a mailing list is only available to logged in users.
   When a logged in user signs up to a mailing list I would like to default the 
   Email Address to the email address of the logged in user.

 * Hi [@neilmstevenson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/neilmstevenson/) ,
 * Thank you for reaching out to MailPoet Support!
 * No, unfortunately, this is not possible with the MailPoet plugin out of the box.
 * However, it might be possible with some [custome code](https://saru.me/2026/05/27/mailpoet-logged-in-user-email-in-form/).
   If you need help with custom code, you can reach out to someone from Codeable:
   [https://codeable.io](https://codeable.io/). We claim no responsibility for any
   custom code on your site and we recommend you test it on a test site before using
   it on your live site. We suggest you hire a developer for such custom code needs.
 * You’re also welcome to add it as a suggestion here. I think that it would be 
   a nice add-on for our forms: [https://feedback.mailpoet.com](https://feedback.mailpoet.com/)
 * Cheers!

 * [@simplysaru](https://wordpress.org/support/users/simplysaru/) Thank you very
   much for your reply and this worked a treat. I followed your instructions and
   changed the field name but got it working first time. I did not use the functions.
   php file but instead used the plugin “Code Snippets”
 * Thanks again
   Neil
