Customizing member profile page

Each member in your database has a personal webpage - so-called 'member profile page'. This page can be made accessible to other people on your website - and they can find and access it via a Member directory.

Access to this page can be turned on or off by the administrator - and then adjusted for some individual member records - by administrator and by member himself.
Furthermore, administrator can set the default settings for each field - which apply to all new records. Each member can change these settings specifically for his own record. And administrators can also change these settings for individual records if necessary, see View and edit member record)

To change member profile page default settings for new records, go to Settings / Member profile page:

Changes on this page are default values that will be reflected in new records only - all previously existing records are not affected.

This page consists of two main parts:

  • Access by others: here you can set the following:
    (a) Member profile page access: this defines whether it is shown at all or hidden
    (b) If it is set to be shown, here you can define access level for each field:
    • Anybody - Shown to anyone viewing this page
    • Members - Only shown to logged-in members (all levels) viewing this page
    • No Access - Hidden from the public or other members
  • Fields to use as page title: here you can define up to 3 fields used as the page title in the member profile.

To change the settings, click on [Edit]:

Click [Save] to save your changes or [Cancel] to exit without saving.

For example, the above settings will cause a member profile in the public directory to look like this:

The same settings can also be access via Customizing your member database
Member can change what fields to display in his own public profile - See: Member - edit profile

    Question:

    Can profile access be limited to certain membership levels?  We want to block directory only to those above a certain subscription level.

    Please advise.

      In each directory you can define which member levels should be include.

      Sorry, you can not login into this site, this is  a wiki for internal editing only. Hence your login from other WA systems does not apply here.

    Is it possible to have the e-mails "hidden" but accessible in the member profiles? We'd like to have our directory public so people can contact our members (by e-mail, phone and/or Website URL), but we don't want the addresses shown because that opens them up more to spamming. Can we set the e-mail link on the profile that shows up to say something like "Contact" or "E-mail" instead of the person's actual e-mail address?
