Problem: I would like to create a custom Page View counting system that increments a custom field in a User's profile when someone visits their content.

Solution: I can show you how to save some value in a User profile custom field using PHP, and how to retrieve that value from a User profile custom field using PHP.
Your code:

$meta = get_user_meta( $post->ID, 'wcpf-count', TRUE );

Is $post->ID accurate here? I think not. You need an author's User ID, not a post ID.

Example:

$meta = get_user_meta( 12345, 'wcpf-count', TRUE );

The variable $meta will contain the value of the wpcf-count field in the profile of User ID 12345. Replace 12345 with the correct User ID, or a variable representing the correct User ID. Try hard-coding a value first, then replace that with a variable and test again.

Your code:

update_user_meta( $authordata->ID, wcpf-count', implode(',', $meta) );
You have a syntax error here. The second parameter, wpcf-count, is not correctly surrounded by quotes.

Example:
[php]
update_user_meta( 12345, 'wcpf-count', 'some value' );

Replace 12345 with the correct author's ID, and replace 'some-value' with the correct value to store in the custom field. Try hard-coding the values first, then once things work as expected replace the hard-coded values with variables.

How you trigger this code is up to you. That part of the application falls outside the scope of support we provide here in the forums.

Problem:

The issue here is that the user's custom permalink structure was not working for one of his CPT.

The user's code was

add_filter( 'post_type_link', 'my_post_type_link2', 98, 2 );
function my_post_type_link2( $post_link, $post = null ) {
    if ( !empty($post) ) {
        $post_type = get_post_type($post->ID);
          
        if($post_type == "projects") {
            return str_replace('%post_id%', $post->ID, $post_link);
        } else {
            return str_replace('%post_id%', '', $post_link);
        }
    }
}
 
add_filter( 'post_type_link', 'type_link', 99, 2 );
function type_link( $post_link, $post = null ) {
    if ( !empty($post) ) {
        $post_type = get_post_type($post->ID);
          
        if($post_type == "projects1") {
            return str_replace('%post_id%', $post->ID, $post_link);
        } else {
            return str_replace('%post_id%', '', $post_link);
        }
    }
}

Solution:
By right the user's code should've worked but it doesn't and I recommended that the functions be combined.

add_filter( 'post_type_link', 'my_post_type_link2', 99, 2 );
function my_post_type_link2( $post_link, $post = null ) {
    if ( !empty($post) ) {
        $post_type = get_post_type($post->ID);
            
        if($post_type == "projects" || $post_type == "projects1") {
            return str_replace('%post_id%', $post->ID, $post_link);
        } else {
            return str_replace('%post_id%', '', $post_link);
        }
    }
}

Since the functions are exactly the same. Now just ensure that the $post_type slug is exactly the same as the one you had created in types.
