Best way to have profiles that users can update?

[ad_1]

I would like to collect user profile data on my site beyond what is built in. For example, in addition to name, email, website, etc, I would like to have custom fields such as Employer, Home City, etc.

​

And then I would like for it to be very easy for people to update those fields for themselves.

​

And finally, I would like to be able to sort on any of these fields, send emails according to the fields, etc.

​

Is this something best accomplished by having WordPress user accounts? Or is there another way to maintain profiles of people that they can update themselves?

​

Thanks!

  1. Membership plugin. Doubt any have what you want free (to email people based on fields) but maybe… anyway… buddypress, ultimatemember, memberpress… any of those.

    You can code/build your own, but since you don’t know that you want a membership system I’ll guess that’s not what you want.
