Title: [Plugin: Register Plus] User Defined Fields – cannot alter Required option Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # [Plugin: Register Plus] User Defined Fields – cannot alter Required option * [pauluk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pauluk/) * (@pauluk) * [17 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-register-plus-user-defined-fields-cannot-alter-required-option/) * I am using Register-Plus and it is JUST what I need. * I have added several (10+) extra fields for the Registration page but cannot set more than the top 5 or so to REQUIRED – and I cant change those first fields to NOT-REQUIRED, they are stuck as REQUIRED. * Also, How do I get rid of the “password sensor” from the registration page – the word “bad” will put people off as the page doesnt explain what this is. * Finally, how do I increase the width of the Registration column as it is too narrow. * Thanks Paul Viewing 8 replies - 1 through 8 (of 8 total) * [skullbit](https://wordpress.org/support/users/skullbit/) * (@skullbit) * [17 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-register-plus-user-defined-fields-cannot-alter-required-option/#post-816488) * I see the problem, I’ll try to get a fix out soon.

This would make it very easy to uninstall Register Plus – but slightly more difficult to modify a setting manually. * – H * [skullbit](https://wordpress.org/support/users/skullbit/) * (@skullbit) * [17 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-register-plus-user-defined-fields-cannot-alter-required-option/#post-816652) * Pauluk * The custom field options are stored in the wp_options table under ‘register_plus_custom’, all other options are under ‘register_plus’. It is saved as an array so editing this manually would be quite difficult. I have a fix ready and am just putting the final touches on it for release later today, so I recommend waiting rather than hacking away at the database option and causing more problems. * When a user registers, all the extra fields are saved in the wp_user_meta table. These options should show in the users profile if you have set the ‘Add profile field’ for the option in the RegPlus settings page. * BTW, who the heck is Ben? * Thread Starter [pauluk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pauluk/) * (@pauluk) * [17 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-register-plus-user-defined-fields-cannot-alter-required-option/#post-816656) * HaHa – sorry – Ben is from another forum. I didnt want to keep adding further posts by explaining. * However, as 2 of us now know you as Ben, I think it only fair that you adopt the name to save future confusion.
