Maybe I’m being thick today, but I don’t really see how a plugin solves my problem after looking at them. Indeed there is an apply_filter call to read the user profile info, but the names of the keys in the associative arrive are assumed in various places around the code. As far as I can tell there wasn’t any forethought into an admin wanting to replace the user info collected at registration with something relevant to the specific forums domain.

I think either I am missing some aspect of the plugins or this an area that could be improved upon for customization by the admin.

Am I missing something that anyone can see? The problem appears to be akismet.php where the key of the user profile info is hardcoded into the code. In my version of the file line 86 and 148 seem to assume the keys to info have not been modified.
