Hi WpForo team. I have another suggestion and it is a feature I think many would find extremely useful.

Basically a "My Profile" widget that displays your basic profile information if you are logged in but more importantly other useful information. For example:

  • Replies to my posts (x) - where x indicates the number of replies to your post. Clicking on it would show post which have replies and links to them
  • Private messages (x) - where x indicates the number of new private messages
  • My subscriptions - clicking here would list topics you are subscribed to
  • My topics - clicking here would display topics you started
  • Log out - clicking here would log you out

Also if you are not logged in than the widget could display:

  • Log in

In my case I am trying to build on online community that is based on Wpforo. I have a website that is using WpDiscuz and I am using the "Blog Cross Posting" to link my website and the forum so everything looks tightly integrated. Something like a "my profile widget" would be very useful since I could use it on my entire website. For example: A visitor could be reading the news but in the sidebar (where I plan to put the widget) he/she would be able to see if someone replied to his/her messages.

This, combined with live notifications (which I hope you are working on 🤗 ), would be perfect for any modern community.

Thank you for the suggestion. This is already in our to-do list. We'll add it in near future releases.
