Hey, i am trying to setup custom fields and they are not showing up on the user preferences page. I am using SSO from wordpress and I would like users to be able to expand their discourse profile. Also is there a way I could add these fields to the wordpress registration so it sends them to discourse to automatically fill out? I know how to add the fields to the wordpress registration page but I do not know how to send them to discourse.

EDIT: Got it to show up, still want to know about sending the value via sso.
