In fronted register page will be something like this:
(NOTE: I strongly suggest to use Theme my login plugin. This plugin will automatically theme you register and user edit profile pages using your theme instead of the defaul wordpress page)

this the user edit page (my account page):

WPUEF is also compatible with WooCommerce extension. It will add extra fileds to the register page:

and the edit profile page (my account page):

Backend

The plugin will also add automatically customer extra field to the order details page:

WPUEF is fully compatible with WPML. Once created new field, you can translate labels and description field going to WPML -> String translation and select "wp-user-extra-fields" as domain:

If you want to read a field or save programatically, you can use the two specia function:

• wpuef_get_field($field_id, $user_id = null): $field_id is the field id you find in field list. ex: 'c2', 'c5', etc. The $user_id, if not specified, will be used the current one. The function will return an object containing all the field data (label, values, etc.). To get the specific user selected value, use the "value" variable. Example:
  

  $result = wpuef_get_field('c13', 16669);
  var_dump($result->value); //Will print the user selected value for that field.
  

  
  
• wpuef_set_field($field_id, $value, $user_id = null): $field_id is the field id you find in field list. ex: 'c2', 'c5', etc. The $value is the value you want to save and the $user_id, if not specified, will be used the current one.

If you want to display a field value for the current or a particular user, you can use the [wpuef_show_field_value field_id=""] shortcode.
a "field_id" must specified and optionally can also specified a "user_id" paramenter. The latter one will let you to display a field value for a particular user.

To display custom forms cointaining just the selected fields, you can use the [wpuef_extra_fields_custom_form field_ids=""] where the field_ids parameter specifies the id of the fields that will be displayed. Ex.: [wpuef_extra_fields_custom_form field_ids="c2,c5,c6,c18,c20"]
