I have a field group attached to a front end form that is supposed to pull user info. One field is a text field that’s supposed to show the user email address. I’ve tried user_email, email, and user_login (registration sets login to email) as the field ID and none of them appear to be pulling anything. User email is stored in the _users table but is not a field in the _usermeta table. What am I doing wrong?

I had that issue. See https://metabox.io/support/topic/prompt-to-change-password-shows-on-edit-form/

It shows the filter for showing the email (below). Then add the ID.
```
add_filter( 'rwmb_profile_info_fields', function( $fields ) {
    $fields['email'] = [
        'name' => 'Email',
        'id'   => 'user_email',
        'type' => 'email',
    ];
    return $fields;
} );
```
