 * Hi [@rubirosa](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rubirosa/),
 * Thanks for your message.
 * The current implementation of the plugin is designed to synchronize user meta
   fields, which are specific to user profiles in WordPress. However, WordPress 
   also supports custom fields (post meta data) associated with posts, pages, and
   custom post types. The reason the plugin doesn’t support post meta data out of
   the box is simply due to the initial scope of the project. I’m considering expanding
   the plugin to support synchronizing custom fields (post meta data) , but it’s
   quite an undertaking and I don’t have much time. Trying to squeeze it in.

 * Thanks for clarifying where you’d like to sync to. 
   As I don’t have the plugin
   and since it’s commercial, could you also clarify about the originating fields.
   Please see question above for context.

 * Thanks. 
   I’ll check why they don’t show up. Is it possible to share more information
   on the fields here? Not the content of course or anything else privacy related,
   just the field names, types, and anything else you could share.This allows me
   to check why it doesn’t show up. For example it could be they are using custom
   post types and custom fields. And if so, I can see how to best include them if
   I know what type of fields you are interested in syncing, and to what other fields
   they would ideally sync.Thanks!

 * Hi [@alortiz3](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alortiz3/),
   Thanks for your
   interest in SyncFields!I don’t know Ultimate membership fields plugin, so I’m
   not aware how it works. If it has usermeta fields, they should show up to be 
   ready for sync though. If you happen to have the Ultimate membership fields plugin
   I’d be interested to know. If it doesn’t work I could potentially check if I 
   can extend the SyncFields plugin.

 * Hi [@pradhansb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pradhansb/),
    Thanks for 
   your below suggestion.
 * The challenge with what you suggest is that a table can exist of any type of 
   data, and without following the logic of WordPress hierarchy of data (Custom 
   Post type, Custom Field, etc) we would have no knowledge what data constitutes
   a field with values and what other ‘field’ to sync it to.
    So that setup is too
   broad for this plugin I’m affraid.
 * Having said that, as long as the data is of these types it should work in the
   new version:
    Post meta, term meta, user meta, comment meta or users.
 * Want to try the beta? If so send me a Direct message.

 * Hi [@cauzeneffeckt](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cauzeneffeckt/) ,
    Thanks,
   good to hear! As for the future: I’m busy selecting a developer to help, (too
   busy to do the work myself, sorry). I’ll let everyone know in the support section
   once the work is underway!

 * Haha, that’s an interesting thought.
    So your wish is I’d add the option to add
   other database tables, (including those containing custom fields), and sync fields
   from those tables.
 * Any other thoughts that might behind your ‘etc’?
    Now that I’m thinking through
   possible (!) additional plugin functionality, feel free to chip in with other
   functionality or lay-out wishes you may have for the plugin 😉

 * Hi [@integritivity](https://wordpress.org/support/users/integritivity/)
    I’m 
   trying to recreate the error but in my tests sites this doesn’t happen.
 * I’m almost sure it isn’t the SyncFields plugin that causes this; the plugin doesn’t
   influence the saving of the user meta field, it uses the trigger from WordPress
   which fires AFTER the update, so it is (almost) impossible. I’m breaking my head
   what could cause it in your site, can’t think of something yet. Could I ask you
   to list the other plugins you have installed and activated? That may help me 
   get some ideas.
