Admin Area Snippets Not Working

[Joseph Lee]

remove_action( 'show_user_profile', 'genesis_user_options_fields' );
remove_action( 'edit_user_profile', 'genesis_user_options_fields' );
remove_action( 'show_user_profile', 'genesis_user_archive_fields' );
remove_action( 'edit_user_profile', 'genesis_user_archive_fields' );
remove_action( 'show_user_profile', 'genesis_user_seo_fields' );
remove_action( 'edit_user_profile', 'genesis_user_seo_fields' );
remove_action( 'show_user_profile', 'genesis_user_layout_fields' );
remove_action( 'edit_user_profile', 'genesis_user_layout_fields' );

None of these are working. I put them in a function and hooked them in to admin_init, still nothing.

Have the functionality of these snippets changed ?

What you have looks right. remove_action must match up with what is added in terms of priority, but the add_action for all of these uses the default, so you should be OK there.

I am doing the same thing hooked to admin_init and it works fine. This is what I am using:

add_action( 'admin_init', 'remove_genesis_user_meta' );
function remove_genesis_user_meta()
{
	remove_filter( 'user_contactmethods', 'genesis_user_contactmethods' );

	remove_action( 'show_user_profile', 'genesis_user_options_fields' );
	remove_action( 'edit_user_profile', 'genesis_user_options_fields' );
	remove_action( 'show_user_profile', 'genesis_user_archive_fields' );
	remove_action( 'edit_user_profile', 'genesis_user_archive_fields' );
	remove_action( 'show_user_profile', 'genesis_user_seo_fields' );
	remove_action( 'edit_user_profile', 'genesis_user_seo_fields' );
	remove_action( 'show_user_profile', 'genesis_user_layout_fields' );
	remove_action( 'edit_user_profile', 'genesis_user_layout_fields' );
}

I have tried hooking the remove_actions in to the admin init. Still no avail.

I've also looked at a few 3rd party developer themes that use those exact same actions, and they are not firing on the devs site.
