 * So I’ve created a custom user field called “Committee” with a meta Key of committee.
 * The field is a Multicheckbox and has the values:
 * Bishop’s Council|bishops_council,
    Diocesan Synod|diocesan_synod, Board of Finance
   Executive Committee|board_of_finance_executive_committee, Readers’ Committee|
   readers_committee, DAC|dac
 * So the custom field is displayed when you go to edit a user profile, But when
   i check some of the boxes and hit save. The profile page refreshes and all the
   checkboxes are blank again. No Errors on the page at all.
 * Any ideas what’s up?

 * Again, I still need assistance on this please!
 * The field still isn’t saving as it should.
 * We still need the ability to save the meta of this field via the admin area. 
   We don’t want a front facing register form on the site. Just a login form. So
   all user registration / updating will be done within the admin area.
