No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

    Basicly a vey good idea, but it should have options to choose: – yes/no LOGIN page – yes/no REGISTER page – yes/no those 2 PROFILE PAGES in many cases the user has already a special styled login or register page, the profile form ist not really fitting, but that we can ajust with the editor and nice regards from the Philipines

    There is no form customization. Apparently there is no way to user upload a picture for their own profile. It would be good if the pages created by the plugin could be shown under the user profile picture as a user menu. I hope I am helping to increase the plugin capability.

    The newest version causes some conflict with my website and I have to use the 0.2.2 version. Overall, I do recommend the author, developer focus on improving the “frontend user editing” instead of the “login page”. The “frontend user editing” is the thing we only needed. Thanks for developing such an awesome plugin. This topic was modified 4 years, 9 months ago by Liang. This topic was modified 4 years, 7 months ago by Liang.

    Hi, why don’t you provide a shortcode instead of a “template tag”? Using a template tag you have to run your code and load your styles and scripts on every single page of a site – since your plugin cannot know where the function is put by the admin. Further: template tags make sense if you use them with a template, meaning: several times. This is obviously not the case with a front end profile. You need it once, on one page. So, including all your stuff when the shortcode is found would be far more efficient. But maybe I’m wrong – However, the tabs feature is cool and would be a nice to have … Cheers, Frank
