Ok,
So I have custom fields in my user registration. I have declared them in the snippet call and have the input tags named the same as the DB fields. Do I need to declare that I’m using the web_user_attributes_extended or is that default? The values are not being stored in the table. Do the DB fields need to match the order of the decalred fields in the snippet call? Is there any simple example of how to use custom fields (for now only text fields) and get them into a table? I’ve searched but it seems like everyone got past these steps quicker than I
Here’s the call:
[!WebLoginPE? &type=`register` &customTable=`modx_web_user_attributes_extended` &customFields=`dogdob,dogbreed,dogname,dogshots,dogvet,dogvetphone` ®isterTpl=`regTpl` &liHomeId=`15` &groups=`Clients` !]
Here’s my registration chunk:

Once a user registers how do you access the user information? I posted earlier about how to use placeholders, I can use the standard MODx place holders but once I login using a web user account I can’t figure or find out how to pull up profile info....it’s been a couple weeks since I touched this and feel like I just took a giant leap backwards! As always any insight is much appreciated.
UPDATE: I renamed my custom fields and re-uploaded the template file which seemed to have reset things. One thing I also did was remove the DIV wrapper on my chunk I think that might have been conflicting and throwing an error. According to Chromes JS window I had a ton of extra span tags in there. Needless to say after tinkering around the custom fields are saving data.
