In reply to: [User Registration Using Contact Form 7] Mapping First Name and Last NameHello ZealousWeb,
Thank you for your explanation. In short, currently is not possible to map First name and Last name fields from the custom registration page to the corresponding stock WordPress profile fields. That’s what I wanted to know.

In reply to: [User Registration Using Contact Form 7] Mapping First Name and Last NameHello,
I have set ACF to “Current user”. Now it shows the additional fields in the “User Registration Using Contact Form 7” plugin settings. But I’m not sure if that field mapping will also work on my Registration page for visitors?

Then there is one more thing.
your-fname and your-lname are field names inside my registration form created with CF7.
How do I map these fields to First Name and Last Name field inside a user profile?
This is my current setting inside ACF plugin. The field type inside my CF7 registration form is Text and your-fname is the field name. But how does this get linked to the First name value inside a user profile? I don’t see any way to make this connection?

I think that the correct way to do that would be to totally avoid the ACF plugin and map First Name and Last Name fields inside your plugin. You already have this done for User Role, Email and Username. Why wouldn’t you add this for the First Name and the Last Name? It’s a nonsense and a really bad practice to connect a plugin to another plugin to get some basic data which is already a standard field inside WordPress user profile.

How can we make this work? I assume I’m not the only one who wants to save First Name and Last Name into the user profile from the registration form. That should be basic stuff.

I had location rules set to default, which was a Post. Now I have changed the location rules to Page is equal to [Page name of the page with CF7 registration form].

But there is no changes in the “User Registration Using Contact Form 7” plugin settings.

I don’t understand, how could the settings from “User Registration Using Contact Form 7” plugin be aware of the Rules set inside ACF plugin? How does this connection works?
I’m happy to report that everything now works as expected. The local backups are automatically deleted after 2 days and only 2 backup copies are retained.
Thanks a lot for a great and fast support.
Best RegardsThank you for this tip. Delete local backup was unchecked. I have checked it now. Will report if it works as expected in a few days.
Here is the log from the last backup:
