Thanks for confirming. I was a little worried data was kept in the db, but you’ve set my mind at ease. I’ll continue as I am.

Okay, thought I’d post this in case someone else has the same problem. It’s a user error … in my haze due to scratching my head for hours on end over this I failed to spot the sc- prefix, ie shortcode. I’d used the shortcode version of the profile form so the form could appear in a page. So, after finding sc-profile-in.inc.php, editing out the breaks and then uploading it to the mu-plugins/ directory the breaks disappeared. All good now though feeling pretty embarrassed!

Thanks for that. It helps. The only thing is the edits I made haven’t made a jot of difference – a bit like the translation -ja.mo file that’s gone into the plugins/ directory.

I must be doing something wrong here. I edit the profile-in.inc.php file, taking out the breaks I don’t want. I save it and then i ftp it using Filezilla to the mu plugins directory.

Could file permissions have something to do with this?

Thought I’d reply to this as I seem to have an answer. And yes, the code gets overwritten during an update as this is editing core files – not advisable but needs must …
