user of user meta

Hello,

Thank you for the contact.

In terms of installing Custom Post Type Permalinks it is not required to have it installed, plugin is standalone. However, if you would like to use mentioned plugin’s functionality and have different permalink structure for each Custom Post, you need to install it and this plugin works with it perfectly.

Going back to the question of user meta key, it’s not supported out of the box in this plugin – only post meta fields are considered. You can always use build-in filters functionality and extend post meta keys on-the-fly without creating them. Then you can provide any value you want, especially some user’s meta value, for instance author’s one.

I don’t know your real use case of getting user meta key (author one or another user?) but this plugin has an extension called ACF Permalink, then you can make an association of the post custom field to user and reuse this user’s value.

Hope I little helped,
Piotr.
