    Hi there,
    Is it possible to use amr-users with Participants Database Plugin, (developers website) It creates new tables instead of using the wp_users and wp_usermeta tables. Is there an easy way to have amr-users use the tables associated with this plugin? They are: wp_participants_database, wp_participants_database_fields and wp_participants_database_groups?
    many thanks,
    eve lurie

    I’m not familiar with that plugin. (Amazing how many do not use standard wp – which then limits the integration of their plugins.)

    As to an ‘easy’ way – that depends on the skill set you have and hwo their data is stored. I have provided filters
    http://wpusersplugin.com/support/documentation/filters/

    and pluggable functions

    http://wpusersplugin.com/support/documentation/formatting-and-pluggable-functions/

    to enable these sorts of things.

    IN addition some of the ‘addons’ are working examples which use the filters and actions.

    If the data is freely accessible then one can write some php calls to add the data in and make it look like wp user meta data. [some plugins (ok one I know of – apply own adjectives here!) encrpyt the data, so one cannot access it except via their plugin. And if their code does not have an ‘api’ – ie a function one can call to access the data, then it is pretty well impossible to get at the data.]

    So basically, how they have stored their data determines the ease of access. Wp usermeta being the easiest.
