The theme developers can use this information to display their bio and links on the front-end of the website. Besides that, users can also change their passwords from the Profile screen.<\/p><p>Moreover, user profiles are extendable. Developers can easily add additional fields to make robust user profiles. For example, developers can add user\u2019s Twitter fields, addresses, email preferences, or anything else that they like. Due to the extensibility of user profiles and user roles, we have plugins like bbPress which allows you to create forums in WordPress.<\/p><p>Often WordPress is used as a membership site where the admins might not want the users to be able to login to the WordPress admin area. In these cases, there are plugins that allow you to give your users the ability to view and edit their profile from the front-end of the website.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-58bffb8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"58bffb8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">How To Edit User Profiles?<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c14776b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c14776b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div>This tutorial assumes you\u2019ve already logged in to WordPress, and will show you how to edit your profile in WordPress.<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7276faf elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7276faf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Step 1<br \/>Firstly, click <strong>Users<\/strong> in the left margin.<\/p><p>Step 2<br \/>Then click <strong>Your Profile<\/strong>.<\/p><p>Step 3<br \/>On this screen, you can edit options relating to the <strong>visual editor<\/strong> and <strong>color scheme<\/strong>.<\/p><p>Step 4<br \/>Update your <strong>personal information<\/strong> here.<\/p><p>Step 5<br \/>You can also enter some biographical information.<\/p><p>Step 6<br \/>When finished, click <strong>Update Profile<\/strong>.
