What's going wrong

Site owners using the WP User Profiles plugin repeatedly report that it offers no simple way to add their own profile fields, such as custom meta, ACF fields or extra data stored in user meta. Some ask how to build their own tabs, and others find the developer filters described in the documentation hard to locate or use without coding. Developers hooking into the section classes also struggle to attach metaboxes. Non-developers in particular are left with the default WordPress profile page. A guided way to attach custom fields and sections to the profile screen, with clear instructions for common setups, would serve these owners well.
