Thank you. I’m holding breath every time I think it’s ok. Thankfully you are really switched on with this!

The issue is with custom fields only… previously (prior to code snippet) for editing and now for saving. UM standard fields function normally. Custom fields do not save. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Ultimate Member – User Profile, Registration, Login, Member Directory, Content Restriction & Membership Plugin] profile forms uneditable (all permissions set to allow users to edit profile)](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/profile-forms-uneditable-all-permissions-set-to-allow-users-to-edit-profile/) * Thread Starter [alychef](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alychef/) * (@alychef) * [2 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/profile-forms-uneditable-all-permissions-set-to-allow-users-to-edit-profile/page/6/#post-16986981) * [@missveronicatv](https://wordpress.org/support/users/missveronicatv/) following yesterday’s success of adding code and being able to edit fields… now users cannot save their profile update changes. Again… only custom fields are not saving. They can be edited… but they don’t save.

I’m not worried about those. And there’s drop downs and multi selects etc included. For now… this works.

I used the plugin. I’m celebrating with caution. You need to work for UM. More help than I’ve ever had. Could you try fields on my site?
