    I just installed Register Plus on WP 2.8.4, is this not compatible? It doesn’t seem to be working correctly. It didnt add my custom field to the register page and the password strength always yes too short.

    All I need to do is add one custom text field to the registration and be able to retrieve it in my pages. If someone knows how I could do this without a pluggin would be best.

    Actually, I could use the nickname field if it was on the register page, and labeled something different.

    Hi,

    Register plus is compatible upto 2.6 only. You can check it from here:

    http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/register-plus/

    There are many plugins for registration you can select any which is compatible with 2.8.4.

    Thanks,

    Register Pluss is currently not compatible with 2.8.4 – as well as the above mentioned issues, the captcha is non functional.

    Am still looking for an alternative solution myself.

    looks like DRegister would allow me to add fields but its says its only compatible upto 2.7.

    Anyone know of a pluggin that will work with 2.8?

    Or can someone lead me in the right direction on how to add a text field into the registration?

    Im not sure if cimy extra fields is compatible with 2.8, it said up to 2.7 but i figured id try.

    I added in a new field and it displays on the reg. page and profile. But I cant seem to access it.

    I have tried…

    <?php global $current_user;
   get_currentuserinfo();
   echo $current_user->NEW-FIELD-NAME;
?>

    and also 

    <?php global $userdata;
   get_currentuserinfo();
   echo $userdata->NEW-FIELD-NAME;
?>

    Both just return return a “0”

    Im not sure if im doing something wrong or if this pluggin just doesnt work with 2.8.

    Registerplus seems to work with 2.8.4 but it gives “username field is empty” error but everything works fine…is there a better alternative we can use that will do what Registerplus does but work better with 2.8.4?

    Or can anyone see if this “username field is empty” bug can be fixed?

    2.8 compatible plugins, that will help you style your login, register and profile pages, and add extra form fields.

    Click on the “plugin homepage” link and it will take you to the authors site. Scroll down towards the bottom and download the 1.5 beta.
    DONT GET THE VERSION FROM WORDPRESS, its only compatible to 2.7 (trust me i tried it)

    The following 3 plugins are all from the same author (Jeff Farthing), they are made to work together or separately depending on your needs.
