Q: Cimy User Extra Fields is not compatible with “Themed Login”, how can I do?
A: The reality is this plug-in IS compatible with WordPress 2.1 or greater and “Themed Login” NOT, so it’s NOT a Cimy User Extra Field’s bug! However I have tried with a little success a workaround to make it works, but first please understand that this is totally untested and unsupported hack, if you want a better one ask the author of that plug-in to support new WordPress!
If you still want *my* personal and unsupported hack edit the plug-in “Themed Login” and do these 3 modifications:
- at line 773, after “global $wpdb, $wp_query;” add this:
global $errors; - at line 811, before “if ( 0 == count($errors) ) {” add this:
do_action(‘register_post’); - at line 871, before “A password will be emailed to you.” add this:
<?php do_action(‘register_form’); ?>
Q1: I got “Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted [...]“, why?
Q2: I got blank pages after activating this plug-in, why?
A: Because your memory limit is too low, to fix it edit your php.ini and search memory_limit key and put at least to 12M
Q: Your plug-in is great, but when you will add support to add more than one choice in radio and dropdown fields?
A: This feature is here since ages, for radio field just use the same name, for dropdown field read instructions in the add field area (in the plug-in).
Q: Indeed, but for multiple choices dropdown?
A: This feature is not supported at the moment.
Q: Uploaded images are not resized, why?
A: You should add php-gd module (under Ubuntu install php5-gd package).
Q: Why big files are not being uploaded?
A: Please check this website, tells you how to change your PHP configurations to fix this issue: http://www.radinks.com/upload/config.php
Q: Why admin user cannot see all fields even if I set to do it?
A: Probably you installed the first time WordPress on PHP4 and you experienced this bug: http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8317
To fix the problem you need to create another administrator user and change admin user to another role and then back to administrator.
Q: I’m using your plug-in on WordPress MU per-blog installation, I’m registering users on one blog but they appear on the main blog too, why?
A: Because WordPress MU is designed like that and I can’t do anything about, however all extra fields and relative data are saved per-blog.
Since I had already a long discussion with an user that didn’t believe this, don’t bother me to insist on this topic until you prove I’m wrong.
Q: When feature XYZ will be added?
A: I don’t know, remember that this is a 100% free project so answer is “When I have time and/or when someone help me with a donation”.
Q: Can I help with a donation?
A: Sure, visit the donation page or contact me via e-mail.
Q: Can I hack this plug-in and hope to see my code in the next release?
A: For sure, this is just happened and can happen again if you write useful new features and good code. Try to see how I maintain the code and try to do the same (or even better of course), I have rules on how I write it, don’t want “spaghetti code”, I’m Italian and I want spaghetti only on my plate.
There is no guarantee that your patch will reach Cimy User Extra Fields, but feel free to do a fork of this project and distribute it, this is GPL!
Q1: I have found a bug what can I do?
Q2: Something does not work as expected, why?
A: The first thing is to download the latest version of the plug-in and see if you still have the same issue.
If yes please write me an email or write a comment but give as more details as you can, like:
- Plug-in version
- WordPress version
- MYSQL version
- PHP version
- exact error that is returned (if any)
after describe what you did, what you expected and what instead the plug-in did 
Then the MOST important thing is: DO NOT DISAPPEAR!
A lot of times I cannot reproduce the problem and I need more details, so if you don’t check my answer then 80% of the times bug (if any) will NOT BE FIXED!

PHP 5.2.11
MYSQL version is :5.0.89-community MySQL Community Edition
I also tried it on my local installation and same problem.
Also wanted to add that the file size, format, etc is fine as the same file gets added fine when editing the profile.
Erum:
did you check your personal email (if you entered correctly) that I sent you a possible fix for the first problem?
Found the email – almost missed it.
No difference with the new file. And it works perfectly when you login and update profile.
I have emailed you the link to the register page.
Dear Marco,
I’m using wordpress mu edition and I wanted to install it as per blog registration. I uploaded all files to plugin folder and then cimy_uef_mu_activation.php to mu-plugins. Bit right after I transferred this file to mu directory I noticed that I lost my ability to edit posts (when you are clicking on “edit”, list of posts opens but you can’t edit anything, you are always on the same page with posts list, nothing happens when you are clicking on edit links). In other things everything is ok, plugin is working per blog registration. Could you advice me something? With what this problem can be connected with?
Thanks in advance!
Is there any way I can list the users and their correspnding fields in a page like
[simyusers]
Katerina:
Yes you are right, there is a bug, will be fixed for v1.5.2 thanks.
GJames:
your request is a bit confusing, which page? Public? Private? If public I have developed a theme to do that, but is not released, contact me privately. If private is already in the plug-in, read readme file.
Marco, but could I do something to make it works now?? Any ways?
So far thanks for this plugin, I’m almost done with my MU-project! One last thing to tackle: If user logs in and gets redirected to (stripped) WP dashboard, only default WP userfields are shown, not Cimy fields. Also tried disabling certain standard WP-fields, but these changes are not reflected on the dashboard for the user. Any thoughts?
Filly:
I have no idea what are you talking about, read the FAQ and try again.
Hi!
first of all, thank you for such a good plugin! secondly, I’ve a problem with date fields. I try to add a Born Date but it never shows up in the Registration form, what’s wrong? Are there some mandatory fields I’m skipping?
Thanks again,
Alvaro
Alvaro:
I have no idea how you manage to add a “born date” as this plug-in supports only registration-date and of course there is no need to appear under registration as is automatically filed with registration date indeed.
If you need a generic date field maybe you can sponsor it.
