Add "about me"-text to member profiles

Dear Community,

are there any possibilities to add an individual description to some members (e.g. only for community managers) like a “self-introduction” or a short “about me” story? The text should be displayed on the “Member profile” page e.g. as a component between “community stats” and “badges”.

An option could be to add the texts to a new component and display the respective text based on an IF condition (e.g.: IF members = Tom THEN Text (“My name is Tom…”)).

 Are there any other, better possibilities or recommendations?

Thank you,
best regards,
Clemens

    Any user can add there information like "About me" or same into biography field in personal profile settings tab.
    This url https://community.lithium.com/t5/user/myprofilepage/tab/personal-profile:personal-info will take you to personal profile tab and same to your community as well.


    Using this API V2

    "Select biography from users where id = '${page.context.user.id}'" 

    Will return user biography.  Add code using this api in component.


    After that add component to MyProfile or ViewProfile Page.
    This way you can get user information in there profile settings. without adding any extra conditions for user role specific.
