I have inherited a website that is using the 'Simple Membership' plugin. Without disturbing its current function, I want to use the custom fields that plugin manages on pages and posts built using Toolset blocks.

I looked at https://toolset.com/course-lesson/convert-existing-custom-types-and-fields-to-types-control/ , created a Field Group, but no fields related to the 'Simple Membership' plugin are shown when I click the Post Field Control button.

With PHPMyAdmin I can see the table and fields that the plugin manages – is there something I can do with that information?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Those fields may be hidden - what if you try to follow the following Doc and see if you able to locate the fields you are missing:

I followed your suggestion, but the fields in the WP table screenshot I attached yesterday are not shown in the list of hidden fields. Is there some code I. can add to give Toolset access to those fields?

There is no such way - under the post field control either it will display the post/user/term meta fields but you have custom table and for that I belive you should wrire a custom shortcode that should return you the table row based on the ID.

Can you please explain a little more about what steps I need to take to create a shortcode that returns the table row and individual cells based on the database information I do have?

I would like to know do you want to display fields belongs to members?

Is member will be loggedin or from where to get the member ID?
