In fact, i have used basic examples from www.w3schools.com/php/showphp.asp?filename=demo_print1
Code:
<?php print "<h2>PHP is Fun!</h2>"; print "Hello world!<br>"; print "I'm about to learn PHP!"; ?>


Auto Action: CODE

Method: PHP
Trigger: After User Profile Edit Display
Condition: [cb_action] equal to Print
Return: Print

Still nothing appears as well..


As Kyle said:

Do not include <php tags.
Means remove the first and last lines.


Sorry to disappoint you Nant.. I accidentally cut and paste the php tags when I posted in the forum..

The auto action does not have the php tags and yet nothing is being displayed.. changed "Return" to echo, print, silent, var_dump;

and nothing is displayed.. what results am I supposed to expect actually? I am guessing it should show (the print out below in blue) at the bottom of the page?

PHP is Fun!
Hello world!
I'm about to learn PHP!

You need to write your code as if it was ran through create_function. This behavior is a little bit different from just executing a PHP script. The code is isolated for security purposes to prevent exploiting. Try the below usage for example.

Code:
Code:
return "PASS";
Return: Echo
