How do I add my own tab to the profile output?

Tabs can be added using the wpfep_tabs filter provided. Below is an example of how to add a tab after the default Profile and Password tabs.

<?php
function wpmark_add_tab( $tabs ) {

    /* add our tab to the tabs array */
    $tabs[] = array(
        'id' => 'wpmark_tab',
        'label' => 'Testing',
        'tab_class' => 'testing-tab',
        'content_class' => 'testing-content',
    );

    /* return all the tabs */
    return $tabs;

}

add_filter( 'wpfep_tabs', 'wpmark_add_tab', 30 );
?>

Note here the priority of 30 which means after the Profile tab (10) and the Password tab (20).

How do I add fields to a tab?

Fields can be added to a tab using a dynamic filter named wpfep_fields_$tab_id. The tab ID is the id of tab as declared when adding the tab (see FAQ above). This means that you can add fields to any tab even the default tabs. Below is an example of how you would add fields to a tab with the ID of wpmark_tab:

<?php
function wpmark_add_tab_fields( $fields ) {

    $fields[] = array(
        'id' => 'testing_field',
        'label' => 'Testing',
        'desc' => 'Just testing.',
        'type' => 'text',
        'classes' => 'testing',
    );

    return $fields;

}

add_filter( 'wpfep_fields_wpmark_tab', 'wpmark_add_tab_fields', 10 );
?>

Are there any field IDs I cannot use?

Yes there are two field IDs reserved which are user_email and user_url. This is because you should not save new meta data with these keys are they already exist, but not in the user_meta table.
