Works wonders for the Profile page
A great addition to the profile page and I look forward to extending it.

Great Work and Very Extensible
This plugin is genius. Documentation could be better, so for that matter, I'm sharing my code that I used to extend this wonderful plugin: https://github.com/bigwing/wp-user-profiles-custom

Best in Class
So Happy I Found This. I had spend a day testing plugins such as Ultimate Member, BuddyPress, Types to get me at least 70% to my goal. This plugin is best in class when it comes to cleaning up user profiles. Very lightweight, only deals with user profiles, and does not add in all the 'member' or 'social' aspects of other plugins. Wish I discovered this plugin sooner.
Have since forked it on GitHub and look forward to contributing.
Great job!

Not working with Members plugin
Hey,
Great idea to organize items to tabs, but this thing didn't work with Members (https://wordpress.org/plugins/members/) plugin. Ability to select multiple roles just wasn't there, only ability to select one role, plus pressing Update would give an error.
