Tareq Hasan It's possible to verify if email is in use when a user update email profile? I would like it to appear an error message and the form was not sent. I think I can do with action hook field...how?? Suggestions?

Sorry, currently that wouldn’t be possible as there isn’t any validation filter available for the profile update.

What do you think of this solution? If email exists I reset this and I write old email. there is a way to cancel the form-post and / or return a custom error message??

function my_verify_and_reset_email($user_data) {
	if (isset($_POST['user_email'])) {
		$user_info = get_userdata($user_data['ID']);
		$old_email = $user_info->user_email;
		if(email_exists($_POST['user_email'])) {			
			$user_data['user_email'] = $old_email;
		}        
    }
	return $user_data;
}
add_filter('wpuf_update_profile_vars', 'my_verify_and_reset_email');

If the solution works for you, thats definitely good. But as I said, your can’t stop the form post and show an error as there isn’t any validation filter available for updating user profile.
