I want username's :firstname to be shown every page. User's email is showing up but firstname doesn't show up.

Did you re-run your migrations after updating the migration? What happens if you run rails db:migrate:reset? Youl'll probably need to turn off/on your Rails server.

Yes I did, it doesn't work

Ah, I think it's because you're not actually using that configure_permitted_parameters method you defined. You need to actually call it before the relevant controller actions. Take a look at this example in the Devise documentation, paying particular attention to what is included at the top of the ApplicationController.
