My Answer:
It seems like the issue might be with the way you are trying to retrieve the custom field value. Instead of using get_user_meta, you can try using get_user_meta(get_current_user_id(), 'billing_mr_ou_mme', true) directly without the underscore before the field name.

Here is the updated code snippet:

php
echo $custom_user_meta = get_user_meta(get_current_user_id(), 'billing_mr_ou_mme', true);


Make sure that the meta key 'billing_mr_ou_mme' is correct and matches the one set in the plugin. If it still doesn't work, you can try debugging by checking if the custom field value is being saved correctly in the database.

If you continue to face issues, you can reach out to the plugin support for further assistance.
