Theme My Profile Plugin

Posted by Jeff on July 15, 2009 at 09:07 am

I created this free WordPress plugin to allow you to theme a user’s profile based upon their role. This WordPress plugin even supports custom roles right out-of-the-box! This free WordPress plugin was designed to be used to fill the void from the Theme My Login Plugin (as of version 2.2, profile themeing has been removed), but it can also be used by itself.

Features

Your users’ profile will match the rest of your website
Specify profile themeing according to user role
Lockout users from the admin area according to user role
Lockout changes links containing ‘wp-admin’ to profile link to essentially hide WordPress
Supports custom user roles

If I activate this plugin, and I try to go to my profile page, i get an error about a never ending loop. So, i can’t try it out.

Fantastic! I can’t believe I found the plugin I needed on the day it came out. Wild.

Unfortunately, I too am getting the recursive redirect — it worked the first time I tried it, but after a de- and re-activation, it simply refuses to load anything for my entire website, even a non-logged in visitor.

Hi Jeff, Still haveing the same problem with this version. Redirect errors. I also tried to empty cache/cookies and on an other pc. Doesn’t help. I hope this error can be fixed. It looks like a great plugin.

Tying it out today and so far no problems. I like it much more than CYC. Now I have to go back and undo all the hacks I had to add into my theme to use CYC. Thanks for the Plugin!

Hi Jae,

I can’t register to post on you forums!

Anyway, I loved your old Simple Login plug in, I even gave you a donation at the time. In fact you created it because I suggested a widget login to you.

I’m sorry, but I don’t like this new route you’ve taken. Before you broke it up, everything was contained in a single plug in and it all worked. Now to get the same functionality I have to install and maintain THREE separate plug-ins!

Also and most frustrating for me, is that the Simple Login plugin enabled me to redirect people to the Simpe:Press Forum profile page. The new “Theme my Profile” doesn’t allow this so it’s of absolutely no use to me!

I can’t tell you how disappointed I am that you have discontinued Simple Login in favour of this. The whole concept of using different plugins seem fundamentally flawed. The vast majority will need all three anyway and you have to try and keep all three compatible with every bug fix.

I’ve also found a bug. Now I’ve installed “Theme my Login” even though the option to display a profile link is set. I don’t have the link displayed to me when I’m logged in.

Sorry, but I’ve got to go back to Simple Login until such time as the old functionality is introduced to the new system.

James,

The separation of the plugins is actually easier for me to maintain. With each plugin handling a different function, it makes it easier to find and fix bugs. It also makes it easier to add features. Plus, not everybody needs all functionality in one, granted most people will. All the extra stuff is “bloatware” to some.

I will look into allowing you to specify the profile URL again. Other than that, Theme My Login combined with Redirect My Login does the same as SimpleLogin.

Comment by Jeff — July 18, 2009 #
Well if you can do that it would help me immensely! It would also help me a great deal if you could take advantage of the WP 2.8 feature of multiple instances of widgets.

I have several sidebars on my site and depending on what page people are on, they see a different sidebar. The current plugin can only be used once so it causes me problems.

At the moment I use the simplelogin(); call in my theme to add the widget manually to other sidebars. But I’d like it to be more flexible.

So, what I need to enable me to move to the new version is profile redirect and multiple instances of the widget. Is that something that is going to be possible?

BTW: I still can’t register to post in the forum.

Thank you very much for the great plugin. Keep up the development

Comment by Levani — July 24, 2009 #
May I ask, but why did you decide to discontinue SimpleLogin plugin, it really worked very nice. Did people complain about it?

Comment by Photon — July 25, 2009 #
It is easier for me to maintain seperate plugins. For instance, if someone points out a problem with logging in, I know to look at Theme My Login. If someone has a problem with redirection, I know to look at Redirect My Login. Plus, not everybody needs all the bloat in one plugin.

Comment by Jeff — July 25, 2009 #
This is amazing! Thank you so much. This combined with the theme-my-login is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks once again.

I am using ver 1.1.5 of this plugn…when I activate it go to the profile page…it gives me an error

Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_currentuserinfo() in …\wp-content\plugins\theme-my-profile\theme-my-profile.php on line 223

So for me it is not workng with the Wp 2.8.1 installation.

let me know if you have any fix for this.

It would be just about perfect except for the missing logout link.

Thanks for a Great mod

I have one small problem, but it’s not a biggie…
When the mod updates, I have to re-style and add the widget for any sign of this to show.

Works very well with your “theme my login” plugin too

Ok looks good i will try this out now! I just wanted to post and say that I am one of those people who do not want the full works, I have sorted my logins etc out already and am purely looking to theme my profile pages, nothing else. so breaking up the plugins is great for me. I figured id have to hack it out-just like i did with my my logins-until I saw you created this plugin from your other. So without evven trying it, kudos and thanks for the effort.

Comment by pips — September 30, 2009 #
wow, now that was super easy and exactly what i wanted!!

BISH BASH BOSH.

Maybe ill run into some issues, but at first look, absolute beauty. So easy im also tempted to reverse my hacks for the login and move over to your login plugin!!

Thanks sir. God job

Ok now im killing ur comments page so please feel free to delete them! Not like u needed permission eh!

Anyway so just a quick question – are these profile pages noindexed? I assume so as it seemingly shouldnt change from the original profiles, but just wanted to double check on that?

Comment by pips — September 30, 2009 #
Hello, Theme My Login, Why is there no language file? If so, please send to my e-mail, please? Thank you.

Thanks for you plugin !
I use it in my online shop http://dressroom.xiawa.my and it works perfectly, thanks

[...] In fact, I have been exercising this on Blogrity.com which is basically in alpha version. You are welcomed to try the site as it is being developed more. Excuse the mess. I will add a forum to get feedback for it, but in the meantime, you can use the contact form there. Blogrity is a social bookmark site with the WordPress core. I use this with the plugin Theme My Login. Theme My Profile and Theme My Login were both created by Jeff Farthing. Of course, you can use this plugin by itself as mentioned on Jeff’s page for the Theme My Profile plugin. [...]

Hi Jeff, this is indeed a great plugin that is very easy to use. I have been trying to allow my subscribers to upload pictures from their profile page on the front end, and I found NextGen public gallery. I’m just starting with PHP and I’m still new to that world. That plugin requires that the code [ngg_uploader] be placed where the uploader is supposed to be. Do you have any idea as to how and where I should that piece of code?

Thank you
