Problems with the registration page

Hi All

We are having some issues with the registration page. We have customized it with a bunch of ‘required’ fields including name, city, province/state, country and also added some optional checkboxes including a Terms and Conditions Checkbox.

However when we go to Dashboard – Users – All users and click on any profile, the only information it displays is:

Name
First name
last name
username

and email address.

All the other fields are non existent. Any idea how to view this information or where the information is at?

Thanks!

That is standard behavior. To look or edit their profile fields you would have to be an admin and do it from the front end. Go to the members page, click on the member and note how the toolbar changes to give the admin options.

It’s easy to display profile fields in the Dashboard.

For example:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16485925/extra-profile-field-not-showing-in-wordpress-user-profile/16491050#16491050

Editing the fields on that screen requires additional custom work.

It would seem so, but I have no idea what it would be.
Did you adjust the code for your situation?

You don’t need to repeat the function, just add as many additional field calls as you want to the function.

so would that look like this:
```
function show_xprofile_fields ( $user ) { 

$field_value = xprofile_get_field_data( 'x,y', $user->ID, $multi_format = 'comma' );

}
add_action( 'edit_user_profile', 'show_xprofile_fields' );
```
where x and y are my field names? thanks & sorry i don’t jack when it comes to php.

```
function show_xprofile_fields ( $user ) { 

 $field_value = xprofile_get_field_data( 'x', $user->ID, $multi_format = 'comma' );
 echo "x: " . $field_value . '<br />'.
 $field_value = xprofile_get_field_data( 'y', $user->ID, $multi_format = 'comma' );
 echo "y: " . $field_value . '<br />'.
}
add_action( 'edit_user_profile', 'show_xprofile_fields' );
```
