You aren’t going to be able to use `decorateWidget()` on a plugin outlet. Try something like this:

```plaintext
<script type="text/discourse-plugin" version="0.8.42">
    const h = require("virtual-dom").h;
    api.createWidget("user-card-custom-field", {
      html(attrs) {
        const userCustomFields = attrs.user.custom_fields;
        if (userCustomFields.user_field_4) {
            return h('span.poster-user-field', userCustomFields.user_field_4);
        }
      }
    });
</script>

<script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="/connectors/user-card-post-names/user-card-custom-field">
    {{mount-widget widget="user-card-custom-field" args=(hash user=user)}}
</script>

```

The `mount-widget` is passing the user object we have available from the plugin outlet in core and making it available in the attributes of the `user-card-custom-field` widget we’ve created.

Make sure you’ve added `user_field_4` to your `public user custom fields` or `staff user custom fields` site settings as needed.

## Edit

Also, unless there’s anything particularly special you need to do, you should be able to avoid widgets altogether and just use the plugin outlet:

```plaintext
<script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="/connectors/user-card-post-names/user-card-custom-field">
  {{#if user.custom_fields.user_field_1}}
    <span class="poster-user-field">{{user.custom_fields.user_field_1}}</span>
  {{/if}}
</script>

```
