    When a user tries to sign up with the same last name as someone else, I cam getting the below error. Has anyone seen this before? I only seem to have the issue when using the condition profile field plugin.
    It’s a red error box that reads ‘Last Name has already been taken’

    Hi Oliver,
    I am sorry, the conditional profile field does not check for other users at all. The conditions are for current user and strictly limited to the profile being edited/registering,

    Please check if you have any other plugin or code applying unique last name restriction.

    Regards

    Thanks for the reply.
    I have disabled the plugin and I don’t have the error, therfore I am confident it is coming form the plugin. Is there anything I can check?

    Hi Oliver,
    Thank you for the reply.

    The plugin can not cause it and I know because I wrote this plugin. It does not have anything to check duplicate names in database.

    Please take a look at the code here.

    I believe something else is triggering(and that might be getting applied when conditional field plugin is acitve).
