Member Profile Page - YourMembers/yourmembers GitHub Wiki

Your Members provides a group of shortcodes to enable the display of member profile information; they can be used throughout your site. The shortcodes also give a site administrator the ability to create a custom member profile page. This is perfect if you prevent members from accessing the WordPress dashboard, usually making use of Your Members redirection.

A benefit of a Your Members generated member profile page is that it inherits the look and feel of your site.

Create a new page on your WordPress site maybe called Member Profile, then use these shortcodes to produce a custom member profile page:

These shortcodes produce member and subscription information in an out-of-the-box solution.  

• Replicate the WordPress profile page: [ym_user_profile_form]

This is an editable form to enable your members to update their own personal details.

• Member's subscription information: [ym_profile]

    <li><span class="scodes"><strong>Reset WordPress password:</strong></span> <code>[ym_user_password_form]</code></li>

    <li><span class="scodes"><strong>Member's custom registration fields:</strong></span> <code>[ym_user_profile]</code></li>

When using [ym_user_profile], you can selectively display or hide individual fields by making use of these arguments: show_custom_fields or hide_custom_fields, followed by a comma separated list of custom fields (by name) to show/hide. Such as this:

[ym_user_profile show_custom_fields="user_url,birthdate"]

These shortcodes provide for fine grained tuning of you member profile page or allow for specific member information to be displayed anywhere on your site.

• Member's provided first name: [ym_user_first_name]
• Member's provided last name: [ym_user_last_name]
• Member's chosen or supplied username: [ym_user_username]
• Member's provided email address:[ym_user_email]
• Member's registration date:[ym_user_register_date]
• Member's bio or description if provided:[ym_user_description]
• Member's private RSS token:[ym_rss_token]
• Any configured custom registration fields:[ym_user_custom name="field_name" alt="alternate text"]

Here the more specific shortcodes are being used to create a tailor-made member profile page. Note that the profile information is only displayed to logged-in members by use of the [no_access] and [user_has_access] shortcodes. Non logged-in members are given the opportunity by means of the [ym_register] shortcode.

[no_access] [ym_register] [/no_access]

[user_has_access]

Hello [ym_user_username]

Here is your membership profile and subscription information:

Once saved, your new member profile page would look like this:
