Custom meta fields not showing on edit user page

Hi Aaron,

A couple of things to check:
– In the setting for each custom field, be sure the “Add To Profile” option is selected.
– In the User Meta Manager Settings, be sure the HTML Markup fields are populated.

HTML Before-

<table class="form-table umm-custom-fields">
   <tbody>

HTML During-

<tr><th>[label]</th><td>[field]</td></tr>

HTML After-

</tbody>
</table>

Let me know if this helps.

Hi,

I can confirm both of the above are set correctly. Anything else I can try?

Thanks

Have you tried disabling gravity forms and the user registration addon? There may be a conflict with another plugin.

Hi again,

Just deactivated both plugins and tried again. Still the same problem.

This is just on my localhost so I can’t even give you a login to check it out.

When you are on the Edit User screen, what is the URL in the address bar?
Example:

user-edit.php?user_id=7&wp_http_referer=%2Fwp%2Fwp-admin%2Fusers.php

The exact URL is:

user-edit.php?user_id=2&wp_http_referer=%2Fclients%2Fvpcwp%2Fwp-admin%2Fusers.php

So far I haven’t been able to reproduce this issue.

You can try the following –
Update the plugin settings. If that doesn’t work, deactivate and reactivate the plugin. If that doesn’t work, try it on a live server.

If PHP version is < 4.1 the plugin cannot use $_REQUEST variable to establish user_id, and you won’t see any custom fields.

To test this, open user-meta-manager/user-meta-manager.php

Find on line 2417 –

if(isset($_REQUEST['user_id'])):

Replace with

if(isset($_REQUEST['user_id']) || isset($_GET['user_id'])):

Ok I have found the issue (none of the above). I had set the custom meta fields to only show on the ‘Subscriber’ role, when I set it to ‘All’ it works fine. So it appears you have a bug with limiting the meta fields to specific roles?

Actually, it is not a bug. If you want a field to be visible for the Administrator and Subscriber, you should select both Administrator and Subscriber options from the Roles menu. You can select multiple roles.
