 * Uncheck “display” in the Fields tab.

 * Hi Chad,
 * Thanks for coming back.
    The thing is…all the additional fields are automatically
   added on the registration page, whilst I would like them to be able to modify
   these additional fields on their profile later on. So, basically what I would
   like to do is remove from registration page while still showing the fields on
   the profile (separate) page. Thanks.

 * There are ways to do that, but it’s a multi-step process and is only supported
   in the WP-Members forms. It’s not supported in the default WP registration.
 * There is a new filter included in the upcoming 3.1.7 release that will allow 
   you to do this fairly easily. But it is not finalized at this point – I may be
   making changes. You can follow the process via the blog ([http://rocketgeek.com/blog](http://rocketgeek.com/blog))
   and read more about it here:

 * does this have anything to do with the “Users Screen” checkbox column on the 
   fields page? i haven’t found any docs on that…

 * Actually, no, that’s entirely different. You’re right – it wasn’t mentioned in
   the docs, although [I’ve added it now](http://rocketgeek.com/plugins/wp-members/docs/plugin-settings/fields/).
   It is mentioned/demonstrated in the video discussion of the fields tab.
 * Checking “[User Screen](https://codex.wordpress.org/Users_Screen)” adds the field
   to the User Screen (Users > All Users).
 * Hope that helps.

 * oops…i checked
 *     ```
               Registration Date 	user_registered 	  	native 	
         	Active 	  	  	active 	  	
         	Registration IP 	wpmem_reg_ip
       ```
   
 * but while the columns appear, only date & ip are filled; active is blank in active
   users:-\

 * If you have all active users, the column will be blank. It only displays “No”
   in a row if the user is not active.
 * This question does come up every once in awhile – why doesn’t it display “Yes”
   for active. It’s based on the premise of ease of visually determining if there
   are pending users to be acted on (i.e. users needing to be activated). When the
   column is full of “Yes” and “No” (or any other terms, such as “active” & “inactive”),
   it takes more effort visually to determine if you have user action to take. It
   is far easier on your brain to look at the column and if there is an entry, it’s
   an inactive user.
 * So what you’ve got indicates it is working if all the users you are looking at
   are activated.
 * Hope that helps clarify.

 * ok, a valid design descision, but since null==false, shouldn’t the column then
   be titled “inactive”, with a simple X to flag attention, sorta inlining the documentation…
