    While trying to change the label for the Title (user_login) field I get:
    user_login is reserved for internal WordPress or Pods usage, please try a different name
    how am I supposed to do what I want?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi @axelhuizinga

    This is a WordPress core field and cannot be changed with Pods.
    What is it that you want to do exactly?

    Cheers, Jory

    Hi @keraweb,

    I want to create a user profile/register/login form using my pod user extending the WordPress user type – as seen here

    Best,
    Axel

    Am not sure where the problem is to change the form freely while adhering to the core requirements in the back-end since the standard WordPress login form also reduces the required fields by one with a Label: Username or E-Mail-Adress

    Hi @axelhuizinga

    The example you send utilizes pods_form() I believe.
    When calling this function you can define fields yourself and even overwrite some properties of core fields like the label.

    Also see: https://pods.io/docs/code/pods/form/
    It’s an old doc page but you can see some examples there.

    However, in the WP backend the labels won’t change. This is only the front-end form.

    Cheers, Jory
