Any chance to have more info on the versioning? Can I see the bug myself?

Thanks. I tried a few things again today, but still no luck.
I’m using the latest version of WordPress, the latest version of your plugin (just downloaded) on a Safari v5.1.4 browser (in case that makes any difference).
The registration form is generated by the plugin Login with Ajax (latest version).
As the checkboxes don’t work, I’m using drop-down menus instead that work perfectly. So I don’t know if a visit to my site it is of any use, but … (in case) … https://gailhastings.com.au/ (and click REGISTER bottom left of footer).
I guess, if you’re at your computer now-ish and you let me know – I could change the drop-down menus back to the checkboxes and you could try registering and see for yourself.
Does the bug affect the standard registration form?

No – which means it’s incompatible with Login with Ajax. Annoying, as that plugin solves other problems.
One last thing, is there anyway the new user can be sent a link to a site’s custom login – rather than to /wp-login.php ??
Yes other plug-ins might be not working well.
There are other plug-ins yes, like Theme My Login if that is what you meant.

No – I mean if one sets up front-end login and registration so that a new user doesn’t leave the site but stays on the page, even if this front-end login is achieved through WordPress coding rather than a third party plugin – when the new user is sent a confirmation email generated by your plugin, the link takes them off site to WordPress’s login. For new users unaware of WordPress’s workings – it looks as though they have been sent somewhere entirely foreign, not the website they just registered for.
Theme My Login achieve exactly what you wanted.
Email’s link can be what you want, just change the email content with a custom link from my plug-in’s admin page.

Theme My Login hasn’t been updated to the current version of WordPress. I’m steering clear of non-updated plugins. Plus, I read somewhere that it too is incompatible with certain functions of your plugin.
Many thanks, though, for responding.
Actually I mainly fixed all issues regarding incompatibility between mine and that plug-in.
I cannot speak for that plug-in and newest versions of WordPress, they lack constant updates indeed.

Yeah – I just don’t want to go there. My previous website was hacked. I’m doing everything, this time, to eliminate any gates left open – such as un-updated plugins. Being hacked it too painful.
Hi Ghes,
i’m using cimy & Login with Ajax as well, how did you get the login plugin accept the custom registration form created with cimy? i only get the usual username/emial filds, but the usual wp registration form includes all the custom fields…
greets

Odd – my only suggestion is it may have something to do with the parameters you have ticked. I have ‘Show the field in the registration’, ‘Show the field in User’s profile’ and ‘Show the field in Users Extended section’ ticked (users can’t actually access their profile as I want them to stay on the front end, but I still have it ticked). If it’s not that, then maybe it’s another plugin you have but I don’t that’s preventing the extra fields’ inclusion. You’d have to do one of those laborious plugin checks.
This stuff’s frustrating, so hope you find an answer after any toil.
even stranger: i had a look at the code of “login with ajax” and the username und email fields seem to be hardcoded to the form?! well, this is really time-consuming and sometimes leading nowhere.
btw i have the same fields ticked as you, no change…
