Forum Tabs on the Member Profile

Once at least one forum sub-tab is enabled, a Forums tab appears on the PeepSo member profile. This page explains what each part shows.

The Forums tab is the member’s forum dashboard. Its sub-tabs (each toggleable and relabelable under the admin settings) are:

  • Profile - the member’s wpForo profile view.
  • Topic - the member’s topics. When more than one board exists, board switcher pills (for example “Forums” and “Board Two”) let you switch which board’s topics you are viewing.
  • Activity - the member’s forum activity, paginated. Uses wpForo’s own items-per-page setting.
  • Subscriptions - the forums and topics the member subscribes to, paginated.

The default sub-tab (the one shown when you open Forums without picking a sub-tab) is the first enabled sub-tab. Developers can override it with the wpforo_peepso_default_tab filter.

Visibility depends on whose profile you are viewing:

Viewing Sub-tabs shown
Your own profile Profile, Topic, Activity, Subscriptions (whichever are enabled)
Someone else’s profile Profile and Activity only

Topic and Subscriptions are owner-only. An administrator viewing another member still sees only Profile and Activity. This is by design, not a bug.

When more than one wpForo board is active, a separate Board tab appears. It lists the extra boards in a table (Title and Description), each linking to that board’s front-end URL.

The default board (board id 0) is deliberately excluded from this table, because it is already the main forum. So a site with only the default board shows no Board tab at all.

Do not confuse the Board tab (a directory of extra boards) with the board switcher pills inside Forums > Topic and Forums > Activity (which change which board’s data you are looking at).

If a member submits the wpForo account form from inside the profile’s Forums area, the addon keeps them on the PeepSo profile account URL after saving rather than sending them to the standalone wpForo page.
