[Plugin: Register Plus] User Defined Fields – cannot alter Required option

  • I am using Register-Plus and it is JUST what I need.

    I have added several (10+) extra fields for the Registration page but cannot set more than the top 5 or so to REQUIRED – and I cant change those first fields to NOT-REQUIRED, they are stuck as REQUIRED.

    Also, How do I get rid of the “password sensor” from the registration page – the word “bad” will put people off as the page doesnt explain what this is.

    Finally, how do I increase the width of the Registration column as it is too narrow.

    Thanks
    Paul

    Hi Skullbit

    Can I manually edit a flag in the database to change to Required or Not Required etc?

    Great porgram BTW.

    Hi Ben

    I went into database to see how all these extra user-defined fields were stored and couldnt make out what was going on.

    When a person registers as a new user, does ALL of the info from the sign-up process get stored in the same table, or is it split across _user and _user-meta ??

    Also, how do I view the FULL data for users – none of these extra fields are displayed under the “Users” – “Authors & Users” or “Your Profile” screens nor under “Register-Plus”.

    Hey Ben,

    From poking around in the MySQL tables, I suspect that all of the Register Plus options-values pairs are kept in a single option (named, “register_plus”). This would make it very easy to uninstall Register Plus – but slightly more difficult to modify a setting manually.

    The custom field options are stored in the wp_options table under ‘register_plus_custom’, all other options are under ‘register_plus’. It is saved as an array so editing this manually would be quite difficult. I have a fix ready and am just putting the final touches on it for release later today, so I recommend waiting rather than hacking away at the database option and causing more problems.

    When a user registers, all the extra fields are saved in the wp_user_meta table. These options should show in the users profile if you have set the ‘Add profile field’ for the option in the RegPlus settings page.

    BTW, who the heck is Ben?

    HaHa – sorry – Ben is from another forum. I didnt want to keep adding further posts by explaining.

    However, as 2 of us now know you as Ben, I think it only fair that you adopt the name to save future confusion. LOL

    Hi skullbit (aka Ben)

    I have a fix ready and am just putting the final touches on it for release later today,

    Where will I find this please? – and are there easy instructions on how to install.

    AND, is there an option to view all members with a certain user field – ie everyone with red hair, or everyone aged 25, etc

    Thanks for your help.
