Note
A regular form: clue simply adds -d, and one spelling serves both as the past (she clued him in) and as the participle after have or be. When the meaning is supplying information someone lacks, it usually takes a particle, giving clued in or clued up. Without a particle it means giving someone a clue. The same spelling also covers clue used as a variant of clew.
Nobody had clued me up about the change of venue.
She was well clued up on the new regulations.
