Problem: I have a Form that creates posts, and I would like to set the default values of some custom fields using information from the current logged-in User's profile. For example, I would like to place the User's email address in one custom field.
Solution: You should be able to set the default value using the value attribute and a Types or Views shortcode. Be sure to alternate quotation marks as shown in the following example:
[cred_field field='email-field' force_type='field' class='form-control' output='bootstrap' value='[wpv-user field="user_email"]']
