I have created a Custom User Field (select field) called "Company"

I need to be able to assign each WordPress user account with a client's company. See screenshot 1 below.

I have a Custom Post Type called Customer Accounts, where the title of the CPT is the name of the company.

I need to auto-populate the select field in the User Profile with the titles of the CPT field (company names), so that as new records are added to the Customer Accounts page, the company names automatically appear in the user field select group.

Hi Rob,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

Unfortunately this is not possible as wordpress does not support a relationship between post types and users like this .

The only relationship that is supported is through the user being the author.

What you can do is to allow the user to create an account profile on a custom post type called User Profile and from here the User Profile account can be a child of Company.

Then you can setup a view to display the Profile of a specific user and with this you can get the company that the profile is a child of.

Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Shane
