    In my blog,all users’ user_status value is 0.

    Can anyone tell me what value does user_status have and the meaning of those values?(I can’t find it either in DOC or Google)

    I want to write some code to have my blog’s registered user renew his membership once a month or a year,so i need to find some place to store the activation information.if I put it there, anything would go wrong?

    any help would be appreciated,thanks!!!!!!

    If you mean the user_status field in wp_users, I don’t see anywhere in the code where that field gets used so you should be okay.

    I’d make sure to do a backup before every upgrade though just in case that ever changes! See WordPress Backups.

    Some would argue that it is wiser to put your custom information in wp_usermeta.

    BuddyPress uses this field. User who haven’t confirmed their registration (via email link) have user_status = 2, otherwise it is back to 0

    @bobchou: Have you written the code? I am interested in making exactly the function you are talking about. Any help would be appreciated 🙂
