Problems with meta fields

Hi grandmountain,

This plugin works off actual data in the user meta (not settings of other plugins) so one must always create some data after changing settings.

This is usually the problem when people say that ‘find fields’ does not find their new fields. Without data, there is actually nothing to find in the user meta.

Note: Any third party plugin can be used, so long as it creates data in the wp user meta. If it doesn’t do that, or doesn’t do it well, stores it in strange ways, then an addon or custom code is needed to extract the data or it’s labels.

I haven’t done an exhaustive review of plugins that create user data, just noted how those that I have encountered work, (even gravity forms does odd things) and how few have considered how people might want to use or report on the data! I assume you saw this post. Register plus used to be pretty good but is many years old and needed much fixup to work with current wordpress last I looked – probably a few years ago.
