Try not to make me sorry for handing your stupid ass a solution, wouldya? * (sorry mods, gonna make you actually remove this one yourselves) * Thread Starter [Cortex](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cortex/) * (@cortex) * [18 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-user-profile-fields-in-phpmyadmin/page/2/#post-762642) * A wanker? Good one. I love the name calling that comes from a wordpress nerd who thinks he is cool. Please try and get a life, and make sure not to respond to any of my posts in the future. * [ivovic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ivovic/) * (@ivovic) * [18 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-user-profile-fields-in-phpmyadmin/page/2/#post-762643) * you tell me to “shut the f*ck up” and I’m the one name-calling? 😉 yes, clearly you’re the defenceless victim here. * This post will get sanitized, but that shit rattling around in your head will still be there. * Have an nice day, and you’re welcome for the solution — the air is cleaner on the high ground. * Thread Starter [Cortex](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cortex/) * (@cortex) * [18 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-user-profile-fields-in-phpmyadmin/page/2/#post-762646) * Whoa…did I hit a nerve with my “wordpress nerd” comment. Sure seems like it. * Oh, and by the way, “shut the f*ck up” is not name calling. You egged that on by telling me I was just pissed off and trying to break my wordpress. * Oh, and not to hurt your ego about your “ingenious” solution that you so graciously gave me, but that plugin doesn’t solve the problem. * [ivovic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ivovic/) * (@ivovic) * [18 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-user-profile-fields-in-phpmyadmin/page/2/#post-762647) * it doesn’t address your question, but it definitely solves your problem. * your original question was about how to use phpMyAdmin – clearly you’re in the wrong place, as Joni pointed out… * And no, you can’t hurt my feelings, I simply don’t respect you enough. I just figure since this thread is going to be heavily moderated I may as well not restrain myself. * PS: I’m not worthy of the title, but since when did accusing someone of knowing much more than you, become an insult? I hope that one day you learn enough for someone to call you a nerd. * Thread Starter [Cortex](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cortex/) * (@cortex) * [18 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-user-profile-fields-in-phpmyadmin/page/2/#post-762648) * Wow, let me tell you how sad it makes me that you don’t respect me. My whole day is now ruined…Ivovic doesn’t respect me. How is life going to go on? This guy from wordpress who can’t offer solutions doesn’t respect me. PLEASE Ivovic… please respect me! My self worth will be gone without your respect. * Like I said before, get a life and quit making me respond to your pathetic ramblings. * Thread Starter [Cortex](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cortex/) * (@cortex) * [18 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-user-profile-fields-in-phpmyadmin/page/2/#post-762649) * I guess I was right…it was the nerd comment. It’s ok dude, just live with it. * PS: Being a nerd becomes an insult when you use the fact you know more than someone else to justify using sarcasm and a condescending tone when your reply to their questions. Might want to keep that in mind in the future when you want to start using your cool computer nerd comments like, “come sit on Santa’s lap…” * [ivovic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ivovic/) * (@ivovic) * [18 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-user-profile-fields-in-phpmyadmin/page/2/#post-762654) * You know, despite the sarcasm in your post, I actually believe you. * For the record, I didn’t resort to sarcasm until your post in which you said you had nothing to achieve with your request here. * _“??? You lost me. I don’t know, what do I really want?”_ * It was obvious at that point that you were the kind of person who only likes answers if they match your expectations. How arrogant and closed-minded of you. * really, I’m not upset, you wanna hug? maybe you want the last word? * I’m in such a giving mood that it’s all yours if you want it. If you don’t take it, then on behalf of the rest of the forum, I thank you for finally pissing off. * Thread Starter [Cortex](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cortex/) * (@cortex) * [18 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-user-profile-fields-in-phpmyadmin/page/2/#post-762657) * I will take the last word to correct your stupid ass once again. * >For the record, I didn’t resort to sarcasm until your post in which you said you had nothing to achieve with your request here. It was obvious at that point that you were the kind of person who only likes answers if they match your expectations. * “Come and sit on Santa’s knee, and tell him what you’d like for Christmas.” “ feel free to ask for a refund if you weren’t satisfied with the support you got” * If you don’t think these comments are sarcastic and condescending, then you should probably go back to school. Obviously, your english skills aren’t as honed as your computer nerd skills. * Have a nice night Ivoprick. 🙂 * 774386 * [17 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-user-profile-fields-in-phpmyadmin/page/2/#post-763009) * This post history is highly amusing and I would like to thank you both for entertaining me this afternoon with your public displays of affection, but you should probably get a room in future 🙂 * To the point of the original question, I am myself wondering how I add additional user profile fields within a plugin I am writing. I am looking at the Dashboard and nothing is immediately jumping out at me in how to do this? I have implemented the show_user_profile action and added the field I want, but I am not sure how to save this and repopulate it next time the profile page is viewed – can you help? * [1alex1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/1alex1/) * (@1alex1) * [17 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-user-profile-fields-in-phpmyadmin/page/2/#post-763019) * Cortex, my god, you are horrible… * [ba4hirecom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ba4hirecom/) * (@ba4hirecom) * [17 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-user-profile-fields-in-phpmyadmin/page/2/#post-763027) * AaaaaHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAH haha ha * [ba4hirecom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ba4hirecom/) * (@ba4hirecom) * [17 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-user-profile-fields-in-phpmyadmin/page/2/#post-763028) * Wow that was funny.
