    Does anyone use the 'Create User' option? Cuz, I think its pretty buggy.

    * Does it call the plugin hooks when a new user is created? It doesn't appear to. I have the wordpress plugin which works fine if user is created on front end, but if a user is created from admin - it does not create a user in wordpress - why not?

    * When the option ' Require unique email' is checked, it doesnt respect that and allows a new user to be created with an already existing email.

    The admin 'create user' should go thru all the same validations and rules and plugin processing that the front end process does - but it looks like it doesn't do much of anything - so I basically have to refrain from using it :(

    Have you added a product to the user after creating them- I believe thats when the hooks are called.

    ah - thanks David. Just confirmed that is correct.

    But that leaves the 'require unique email' as a bug then. I can create as many accounts that I want with same email address even though it shouldn't based on the configuration setting.

    That works for when the user signs up themselves- not the admin signs them up.
