Hi Support, The Custom Attributes List under Manage People is empty for gluuCustomPerson and eduPerson, the attributes list is showing normally for gluuPerson. I have attached the screenshots from my installation.
Gluu 4.0 CentOS 7.7

I will check how it looks like in my 4.0 setup.

Hi Mohib, The Gluu4 I have is a fresh install, therefore the attributes are not "Active". I have activated them in custom attribute and is able to select them under "Manage User". This step is not clear or documented it seems and it is a departure from Gluu 3.1.6. Thanks for the clarification!

I think there shouldn't be any "eduPerson" and "gluuCustomPerson" tab at all in "Release additional attributes" sections if there is no eduPerson or Custom attribute active. Like [this](https://gluu.org/docs/ce/4.0/img/saml/samlfederationTR.png) screenshot. What do you think?

I feel it will be better to retain the tabs and provide a link to the "Custom Attributes" page so that the user can know to go and activate the attributes. Retaining the tab will indicate that there are different objectclasses for different attributes and having a non-empty content will show that it is not a bug (similar to "This page is intentionally left blank"). I raised this ticket as I was trying add the telephone attribute to a user and I wasn't able to find the attribute and it did not cross my mind that the attribute is inactive.

Thanks. I'll discuss with our GUI developer and open a github issue then.

Hi Kee Wee, I haven't forgotten this case but our oxTrust Dev is extremely busy with some prod work for one customer at this moment. I'll share our suggestion as soon as he is released from that task.

Hello Kee Wee, It's going to be implemented in next version. [Here](https://github.com/GluuFederation/oxTrust/issues/1875) is the github enhancement issue. Thanks for your suggestion and help so far!
