Hello All,

I added a few profile fields like
Saluation -> dropdown
First Name ->texbox
Last Name ->textbox
TOS-> checkbox

When i look at the wp_usermeta table i do not see all these fields in meta key and what it seems to eb doing is that the existing nick name value its splitting in first name and last name.. so my first question is

1) Am i looking at the correct table??? if not where is the data that a user enters on register page stored?

I am also looking to override the activation email message by adding a filter for bp_core_signup_send_validation_email_message.. My code is

add_filter( 'bp_core_signup_send_validation_email_message', 'RECN_CUSTOM_activation_message', 10, 3 );

function RECN_CUSTOM_activation_message( $message, $user_id, $activate_url ) {
    $user = get_userdata( $user_id );
    return "Hello $user->salutation $user->first_name,$user->last_name.";

Question 2:
$user->salutation $user->first_name,$user->last_name all return empty string?

Is that the correct way to retrieve that data?

Thanks,
Parag
