In Ultimate Membership Pro, the profile form is where members update their own details: name, email, avatar, your custom fields and their password. It shows in the Profile tab of the Member Portal and can be placed on any page.

Troubleshooting

Why is a field missing from the profile form?

Only fields with On Profile switched on appear in the profile form. Turn it on for that field in Registration Form › Custom Fields.

Why is the Profile tab of the Member Portal empty?

Show Profile Form is off for the Profile tab. Switch it on in Showcases › Member Portal and save.

Why doesn’t the new profile form template show?

Click Save Changes on the Profile Form Showcase, then clear your page cache.
