Profiles
Helping users to feel a part of your community is an important part of getting them to stick around and contribute. User profiles are just one feature that creates invested users who want to visit over and over.
A user profile
Personal Photo & Avatars
Users can upload a photograph to represent themselves right across the community, and an avatar to display next to their posts. Let them choose one of their own images, or install avatar packs for them to browse through.
Mini Profile Popup
Wherever you see Icon on your board (which is just about everywhere a member name appears), it can be clicked for a handy mini-profile popup. Send a PM, check reputation or find user content - without needing to leave the current page.
Custom Profile Fields
You can create additional profile fields, that members can fill out to tell others a bit more about themselves. These profile fields may also be set to hidden, so that only administrators and moderators can see them, as well as configured to show on the registration form.
Customization NEW
Users can customize their profile pages by selecting a background color or background image, with tiling options. Alternatively, if you enable Twitter and/or Facebook integration, users can choose to automatically import their profile customizations from those sites - and keep them synced.
Profile Comments
Allow users to leave comments on the profile pages of other users for all to see - naturally, moderators and the profile owner both have full control over content posted, or can disable comments completely if they prefer.
Activity Overview
The profile page shows an overview of everything that user has done in your community, including status updates, recent topics, posts, blog entries and more.
