QUESTION about reinstall (anyone)

Apparently I have to reinstall userpro in order to fix the bugs that support says I am experiencing. I see that if I use the reinstall feature it will erase/reset all fields and settings. That’s ok I can rebuild those rather quickly. HOWEVER, I need to know what will happen to my existing users data (their profile information). If I make the same fields, will all of their data reappear automatically?

If you re-install your User’s Data or their profile will not be deleted!

Their profile data is STORED in database, they won’t be DELETED! Or modified. If you re-add the same key, and fields they will retain old / saved profile data automatically. Everything is saved in user meta table, which is never deleted or altered after userpro is installed. I understand people will need the meta fields and their values even if they do not UserPro, and decide to change it. So re-install and do not worry 😉

Thanks, knowing I can just make the same fields and stuff will repopulate makes me feel a lot better.
