 * I installed this plugin, had it working but now I get nothing. I just reinstalled,
   went to the homepage, I see the login button, clicked it and get a blank page.
   I create a page, told the plugin that it is id 8 which when I click the login
   button, It does go to page 8 but there is no form there. So I put in the shortcode
 * [theme_my_login instance=”1″]
 * and when I go back to the page the shortcode displays on the screen. Usually 
   this only happens when a plugin isn’t active but the plugin is active.

 * Try [theme-my-login] instead. I had the same problem when using _ instead of -.
   
   I think there might be a typo in the shortcode documentation.

 * Yes, the shortcode is [theme-my-login]. Also, the plugin creates it’s own page
   when it is actiavted.

 * yes, it was a typo. I looked through the documentation and that is why I was 
   so confused because I thought it created it’s own page as well yet installed 
   and reinstalled several times over the course of two hours and it would never
   work without the shortcode. I tried giving it a page id for the custom page with
   the shortcode, I tried deleting the shortcode and the page and removing the id
   from the admin area, nothing worked. It’s working now and I am glad. I think 
   this plugin will be exactly what I need and save me a bunch of time.
 * I don’t suppose you have any infromation on how to get the custom fields to populate
   the admin area of wordpress do you Jeff? I would like to follow your documentation
   for adding custom fields to the login and then be able to go into users in the
   admin area and see the data show up there.

 * You would have to use additional action hooks in order to inject the fields into
   the WP admin area profile page. That hook would be **edit_profile_user** and 
   it is passed in the WP_User object as it’s only parameter.

 * I followed this tutorial for your plugin
 * [http://wp.tutsplus.com/tutorials/creative-coding/bringing-the-membership-process-to-the-front-of-your-site/](http://wp.tutsplus.com/tutorials/creative-coding/bringing-the-membership-process-to-the-front-of-your-site/)
 * but it doesn’t seem to work fully. I see the custom fields that they talk about
   adding later on in the tutorial but it doesn’t populate the profile. I see the
   field in the profile but it’s empty. I saw the fields in the register screen 
   and filled it in but it didn’t populate anything on the profile page. I thought
   I would try doing it the way your documentation shows it next.
