    I have two more questions that I hope you might answer for me!

    First of all, after creating and deleting several users for testing purposes, I just realized that the user IDs in the membership list aren’t the same as the WordPress user_ID, they’re one digit off. Are they supposed to be the same?

    Secondly, after a user has updated their profile and/or changed their password, the message “Your profile has been updated….etc” appears at the top of the front end profile page. After the user logs in again, if they go back to the profile page, that message is still there. Is there an easy fix to turn that off once they’ve logged in again?

    Thanks!

    Hi, did you by any chance purchased the Form builder add-on?

    No I didn’t. Should I? I didn’t think it was really necessary – I only really have 2 levels, one that expires and one that doesn’t and they have the same fields etc.

    Hi, no you don’t have to purchase the Form Builder add-on. I just wanted to confirm if you had it or not. In regards to your first question, can you give me an example of the number of characters between the WordPress User name and the plugin Simple Membership user name?

    In regards to your second question, can you delete the browser cache and see if you still see the message. Do you have a cache plugin installed in your website?

    Sorry I wasn’t clear – the user NAME is the same, it’s the user_ID that’s different. Like for instance I have my account chayton which is wordpress user_ID 5, but in the membership plugin my username is still chayton but my user_ID is 6

    It’s not a big deal, I just thought maybe I’d screwed something up and they’re supposed to be the same.

    As for the other thing, once I’ve closed the browser and cleared the cache the message goes away, but it might be confusing to users who maybe go to change their password, they get the message they have to log in again, they log in again and they go back to their profile and it still says they have to log in again. On the login page there’s the message “Please log in again” and once they do, it goes away. I was hoping there was a simple way to hook to that to clear the message that appears on the profile page as well.

    And no I don’t have a caching plugin, and the caching thing that’s set through my host is turned off as well. Even the ‘Registration was successful’ or whatever it is stays too long. I’m thinking that right now my workaround will be to just hide ALL messages on the profile page….? I do have some intro text that tells people that if they change their password they have to log in again, so it’s redundant anyhow. Unless you have a better idea?

    Hi the User ID works different between the plugin and WordPress. One does not affect the other. This is how it works. You have done nothing wrong 🙂

    In regards to your other comment, I think your method is best for your scenario. The plugin developers will investigate this further to see if something can be done.

    Regards
