    Thank you very much for this lightweight plugin. Just what I need.

    I need to add the first name and last name upon registration. I am able to display it but I am not sure what to do on the registration form and upon saving it. Please help.
    `$num = 1;

    foreach ($users as $user) {

    $user_info = get_userdata($user->user_id);

    if ($user_info->first_name == ”)
    $seatt_output .= ‘
    <li>’ . esc_html($user_info->user_login) . ‘</li>
    ‘;
    else
    $seatt_output .= ‘
    <li>’ . esc_html($user_info->first_name) . ‘ ‘ . esc_html($user_info->last_name) . ‘</li>
    ‘;
    $num++;

    }`

    As it’s core wordpress, are you expecting users to complete that detail when they create an account, or are you looking to include it as part of the process of registering for an event?

    Or are you just wanting to add it to the form (i.e. display the logged in user’s name alongside their username?

    Thanks

    Hey Dave. Thank you for your response. I think all the options you mentioned are good to have it onboard. Upon creating an account there are extra fields like First Name and Last name. And on the list of Registered users in the front end shows their First Name and Last Name alongside with their username.

    I updated the plugin with the latest version. Works great!
