Future Development
What we're working on
User Custom Fields
Webflow Memberships allows for several custom field types as part of a User's account. These can be managed through;
The Designer user manager
The API
During Sign Up, if you add those fields to the UI
On the User Account screen, if you add those fields to the UI
CUI v3 aims to provide access to these fields both through Sygnal Attributes data-binding and directly through JavaScript. All fields will be part of the UserInfo object, as a map under the data element.
These will be named based on your defined field names, using Webflow's generated internal field names for each.
The Webflow CMS and User data storage systems generate internal field names based on the generated slug, however there are situations where the slug and the internal field name will mismatch. For example, if you rename your slug field, Webflow will keep the original name as its internal field name.
e.g. Full Name would be accessible in the user object as user.data.full-name
As of Feb-2023, these are Webflow's current field types, and our current plans;
