Magento 2 Custom Customer Attribute not Showing on Frontend [Solved]

Question

I'm able to add custom customer attribute called "passport".

It's working fine on Admin Side. So no issues.

For the frontend however it's not displaying on Registration page.

Below code already added InstallData.php

'used_in_forms' => ['adminhtml_customer', 'checkout_register', 'customer_account_create', 'customer_account_edit','adminhtml_checkout'],

So, for frontend, i have created Block - Widget for that Passport Field & Overriding Customer Registration Page. It's already pointing to New File.

\magento2\app\code\Custom\CustomerAttribute\Block\Widget\Passport.php

public function _construct() { 
 parent::_construct(); 
$this->setTemplate('Custom_CustomerAttribute::widget/passport.phtml'); 
 }

\magento2\app\code\Custom\CustomerAttribute\view\frontend\templates\form\register.phtml

<?php
$_passport = $block->getLayout()->createBlock('Custom\CustomerAttribute\Block\Widget\Passport');
if ($_passport->isEnabled()):
 echo $_passport->setPassport($block->getFormData()->getPassport())->toHtml();
endif;
?>

While running above code it's not calling <project path>\magento2\app\code\Custom\CustomerAttribute\view\frontend\templates\widget\passport.phtml file.

I got the answer & solution.

\magento2\app\code\Custom\CustomerAttribute\Block\Widget\Passport.php

/**
 * @return bool
 */
public function isEnabled() {
 $attributeMetadata = $this->_getAttribute('passport');
 return $attributeMetadata ? (bool) $attributeMetadata->isVisible() : false;
}

Now it's displaying in frontend :)
