When I initially installed this module there was no support for user reference fields. I added this snippet to the submit function in the module file around line 49 to get it working:
if($result){
if($result['type'] == 'nodereference'){
$node->$key = array(array('nid' => $value));
}
// Add this to provide functionality with user reference fields.
else if($result['type'] == 'userreference'){
$node->$key = array(array('uid' => $value));
}
