 * Sure, just be aware this is my development server…it might be down or broken 
   at some times: [https://dev.th23.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/20190202_144812.jpg](https://dev.th23.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/20190202_144812.jpg)
 * I by now also dived a bit deeper in to the topic and within the core code of 
   WP saw, that there are some fields deliberately excluded from strip_meta, such
   as EXIF and IPTC data. Maybe this helps?

 * Hi kenblair,
 * to understand this a bit better: Do you see new users registered in the backend(
   Dashboard -> Users) and if my plugin is activated under “Pending”?

 * Hi Richard,
 * my plugin brings all user management related activity to the frontend of your
   page – and allows you to restrict the access to the admin area.
 * It does not offer functionality to set permissions for the posts / pages.
 * But this different objective is for sure taken up by various other plugins you
   can find here in the repository…and setting permissions by user role should work
   together with my plugin for having user registration/ login/ profile on the frontend.
 * Kind regards
    Thorsten

 * Hi grafixNZ,
 * this is the intended behaviour – I documented it in the source code of the uninstall
   routine as below:
 *     ```
       // NOTICE: We keep this role - otherwise unapproved/unvalidated users have no role assigned and will have access, role will become visible normally in admin area
       // remove_role($this->plugin . '_pending');
       ```
   
 * Two reasons for this decision:
    1) The active plugin prevents users with the 
   role “pending” from login, so I didn’t want to “autoapprove” all pending users
   upon plugin deactivation allowing them to login 2) The role does not “harm” the
   WP installation and does not cause any significant additional load.
 * However, if you want to remove the role, just add the following line to your 
   themes function.php file, call your site (frontend) once and remove the line 
   afterwards again.
 * `remove_role('th23_user_management_pending');`
 * Hope this helps!?
 * Kind regards
    Thorsten

 * Hi Francis,
 * thanks for your question!
 * In the FAQ on my page I have covered this basically under the question
    [Does the plugin support additional login/ profile fields?](http://th23.net/th23-user-management-faq-and-support/#faq8)
 * In a nutshell:
 * Yes, the plugin can handle additional fields upon registration and provides the
   required hooks/ filters. However, this requires other plugins to leverage upon
   these API points – or requires you (with some knowledge about PHP coding) to 
   use them.
 * A working example can be found on this website for integrating with a subscription
   plugin for the selection of the categories to subscribe to, using the following
   hooks:
 *     ```
       add_filter('th23_user_management_register_options_html', array(&$this, 'user_register_form_html'), 15); // th23 User Management plugin provides special filter to hook in frontend page
   
       add_action('user_register', array(&$this, 'user_register_add_subscribtions')); // execute subscription
       ```
   
 * The first line hooks a function inserting additional HTML into the registration
   page. The second one obtains this information upon a completed registration –
   for furter handling e.g. storing the data.
 * Hope this answers your question!?
 * Kind regards
    Thorsten

 * Hi there,
 * thanks for your interest…I can’t tell how this behaves with buddy press as I 
   do not run this addition (and BP does quite some changes to WP).
 * Suggest you try and test the free version of my plugin solidly before!?
 * I am afraid, there is no special pricing option – no chance to validate and the
   amount is very low…
 * Kind regards
    Thorsten

 * Nothing to hide, you even get the source code(s) of the plugin 😉

 * Hi there,
 * not really sure what to say about your quite personal allegations about me being“
   as shady as can be”…that’s somehow very off-topic, at least or do we know each
   other?
 * What is basic functionality and what professional add-on is descibed in the description
   of the plugin (main page of the listing on WP.org) and the pricing is stated 
   on my homepage – see the [screenshot linked here](http://th23.net/wp-content/uploads/temp/th23-user-management-pricing.jpg)

 * Hi there,
 * sorry to read your feedback!
 * If you do not like the functions provided by my plugin, you do not need to use
   it…
 * The plugin – in it’s free available BASIC version – already moves the user interactions
   for registration and login onto the main page, fully themed.
 * And on the main plugin page it already reads clearly:
 * > Additional options to enhance user experience further are available as a Professional
   > extension of this plugin and include:
   > * All user management actions available on frontend styled according to theme–
   > including profile changes, lost password, reset password
   >  * Access to the unstyled
   > admin area can be restricted based on user groups – wp-login.php can be disabled
   > completely * User chosen password upon registration option available – including
   > initial e-mail validation * Admin approval for new users option available –
   > before user can login * Use reCaptcha against spam and bots upon registration,
   > lost password and login – after specified amount of unsuccessful attempts *
   > Introduction of e-mail re-validation upon changes of address
 * Kind regards
