[solved] Accounts.onCreateUser not updating user fields

help
1

Here is my code that runs for Accounts.onCreateUser. This runs on the server (the file is in the server folder) :

Accounts.onCreateUser (function (options, user) {
	user.profile = options.profile ? options.profile : { 
		nameDisplay : user.username,
		entity : null,
		billingAddress: {},
		names : [],
		phones : [],
		address : [],
	};
	var now = new Date();
	_.extend(user, { 
		tokenSM : null,
		customerId : null,
		employeeId : null,	
		salesrepId : null,
		createdAt: now 
	});
	console.log(user);
  return user;
});

The terminal log shows the user object being created as expected.

But only the profile fields are written to Mongo.

I know this is a real noob post but stuck is stuck and I’m stuck so a little insight will be gratefully accepted.

Thanks

Arg. The issue is that the fields being added aren’t also being Published and Subscribed.

I am using Meteor Toys with the fabulous Mongol to watch the record contents. Mongol respects the Publish limits - I thought it didn’t. The tip off was when I attempted to add the field myself using Mongol and saw a console message:
"‘tokenSM’ is an unpublished field. This field’s value was not overwritten."
