Hello
I often need to have a user management (login, profile, password, etc.) on my wordpress websites. What do you use? How do you do it?
Dennis Eitner
Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Graduate 25,593 PointsDo you use plugins for user registration/login process? If so, which is your favourite? Or do you use wordpress' user management and extend it with custom roles?
Andrew Shook

Edit: I do extend with custom roles.

Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Graduate 25,593 PointsUser registration with custom fields, export registered users as excel file, user privilges. And I don't want users to see the wordpress login screen.
Andrew Shook
31,709 PointsYeah, I've never really had to do anything along those lines.
