APologies for the newbie/Dumb questions but the more I read the more confused I am
1. I have user Registration plugin in. I even have a feed linked to a form and I have one test entry to show that the info entered into the form has been saved. I have a series of Custom_Meta_labels that map to my form fields ....so far so good.
1ST NEWBIE QUESTION - Reading all the FAQs it seems that this information has been stored in the WP user profile database table (ie written), but cannot be displayed on the WP profile page unless i add code into my functions.php file (Justin's 2009 post on this). Is this correct? IS the information that is stored by the plugin in the main WP-USer table or in a special Gravity forms table?
2. I make users register (simple registration of username, email) before they can have access to the form. As they fill out the form (application for a grant) I want to capture and add that information to their profile, so that for subsequent applications they just have to tweak a couple of fields rather than re-enter.
2ND NEWBIE QUESTION -I want to give them the option to edit their profile (Not through a form) but a customised Edit profile page. Do i have to write a lot of php code (Similar to Justin's 2009 post) to be able to display and allow the users to edit this (Assuming the answer to Newbie Q1 is that it IS stored in the WP user profile table)?
3RD NEWBIE QUESTION - its 4 years since Justin's post. Is there an easier way to make all these potential code changes for a non-coder like me, or am i going to have to take the plunge?
Sure these Qs will make some of you giggle with their simplicity, but it is a daunting world for us non-progammers to tweak and adjust plug-ins, so any help gratefully received!
Happy Memorial Day!
