Email or Private Message

#1 · November 2, 2020, 2:25 pm

I understand the forum does not have private message and I much prefer member to member email using a form for email.

I notice that is also not present so currently there is no way for a member to contact a member.

Even the email address does not display, there should be a setting that allows the email address to display in the member profile.

Right now the only option I see is to add the email address a second time into the Biographical Info field.

Any way to get the email address to display or have an email form?

Better yet a PM system?

Hey @kamwest,

I would advise you to use Ultimate Member to set up a custom user profile. But keep in mind that a lot of users don’t like it to display their email address in the internet.

For private messaging you should use a plugin like Front End PM.

I use Buddypress and it works very well with the private messages
