profile field ID is missing from the recent versions.
this topic is moved to bugs & issues section
IMO it doesn't really matter, because you can see the ID in the link if you edit a field. But also nothing against readding that field so it's more user-friendly.
Yeah, looking at the URL isn't ideal. There are a few plugins that add/use profile fields and require the field ID in their settings.
I took it out because it was redundant, but if people want it back, I can re-add it.
There is no in-core feature that asks for an profile field id.
Instead of reading it we should probably add a new way for plugins to retrieve a friendly dropdown list of available lists. i.e: A new setting type.
@alexdinpoik why do you need to know the FID for?

You can add profile fields to templates individually to style your theme.
But for plugins, I agree this would be better:

I think it should be possible to do with the php optionscode, a new type wouldn't be bad either. Or, depending on the implementation, a new profile field table column and a hook to the add/edit profile field pages.
The current profile system adds the fields automatically to the post-bit/profiles so IMO it is redundant now. Old tutorials on adding them manually no longer apply for the branch this was removed on.

It is possible. I haven't seen any plugin requiring a profile field id freely available though.
Just a suggestion onto adding something that would actually be useful instead of reading something that no longer is.
My old Xbox Live plugin did, and there are probably others
