Extending Ultimate Member Profile Menu using Hooks

gistfile1.php

/* First we need to extend main profile tabs */

add_filter('um_profile_tabs', 'add_custom_profile_tab', 1000 );
function add_custom_profile_tab( $tabs ) {

	$tabs['mycustomtab'] = array(
		'name' => 'My custom tab',
		'icon' => 'um-faicon-comments',
	);
		
	return $tabs;
		
}

/* Then we just have to add content to that tab using this action */

add_action('um_profile_content_mycustomtab_default', 'um_profile_content_mycustomtab_default');
function um_profile_content_mycustomtab_default( $args ) {
	echo 'Hello world!';
}

Anyway to change "mycustomtab" in the URL ?profiletab=mycustomtab?

I tried changing it in the code but the tab disappeared afterwards.

@peteratomic You need to change "mycustomtab" wherever it appears in the code above.

E.G.:

add_action('um_profile_content_mycustomtabdefault', 'um_profile_contentmycustomtabdefault');
function um_profile_contentmycustomtab_default( $args ) {

Hello,
Which page should the customtab code be added to in order to at a custom tabe to my profile tab?

Do I have to create a new file and write this code or I have write this in um-profile.php in templates folder? I am new to this please help me!!

Hi,
I have two questions:

1. in which file do I have to add the code to get a custom tab?
2. I want to add a custom tab which leads to an URL (e.g. /user/edit.php) when I click on it - how do I do that?
   Thank you very much!

Hello,
does anyone know how to add arbitrary code to a custom tab on the Profile page? I've been able to do that with the Account page, but can't figure it out for the Profile page... i guess it doesn't help that I'm not a programmer... :)

I've used code from this example:
http://docs.ultimatemember.com/article/65-extend-ultimate-member-account-page-with-custom-tabs-content for the Account page.

Now I'm using this example:
http://docs.ultimatemember.com/article/51-custom-profile-tab-example-showing-user-pages
to try to add the same HTML code on the Profile page... using the sample code in above mentioned pages, I'm trying to apply this:

/* Finally we add some content in the tab */
add_filter('um_account_content_hook_mytab', 'um_account_content_hook_mytab');
function um_account_content_hook_mytab( $output ){
    ob_start();
    ?>
    <div class="um-field">
        <!-- Here goes your custom content -->
    </div>      
    <?php

    $output .= ob_get_contents();
    ob_end_clean();
    return $output;
}

to this:

/* Tell the tab what to display */
add_action('um_profile_content_pages_default', 'um_profile_content_pages_default');
function um_profile_content_pages_default( $args ) {
    global $ultimatemember;
    $loop = $ultimatemember->query->make('post_type=page&posts_per_page=10&offset=0&author=' . um_profile_id() );
    while ($loop->have_posts()) { $loop->the_post(); $post_id = get_the_ID();
    ?>

        <div class="um-item">
            <div class="um-item-link"><i class="um-icon-ios-paper"></i><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></div>
        </div>

    <?php
    }
}

Thanks!

Tab is disappearing when I change it from anything other than 'mycustomtab', similar to what @peteratomic reported. I changed all references where mycustomtab was called.

Is this expected behavior?

Edit: apparently de-activating and reactivating plugin fixes this problem..

@Psychopomp777

1. You add the code in your functions.php file at the bottom.
2. I am trying to figure this out right now. (Does anyone have the answer to this??)

is there anyone can help me with where exactly i would add that code, please??

@tajbarr Could you tell me how you made 5 custom tabs? Did you change the code or just paste it 5 times? anyone knows how to make more than 1 tabs?

Hello,
anybody can help me how can I display profile Form to the tab. Although I use shortcodes, it's showing the Profile form but when a user going to "Delete Account" it's not working ... I was check problem is the shortcode. here is the code

/* add new tab called "mytab" */

add_filter('um_account_page_default_tabs_hook', 'my_custom_tab_in_um', 100 );
function my_custom_tab_in_um( $tabs ) {
$tabs[800]['makeedit']['icon'] = 'um-faicon-pencil';
$tabs[800]['makeedit']['title'] = 'Make An Edit';
$tabs[800]['makeedit']['custom'] = true;
return $tabs;
}

/* make our new tab hookable */

add_action('um_account_tab__makeedit', 'um_account_tab__makeedit');
function um_account_tab__makeedit( $info ) {
global $ultimatemember;
extract( $info );

$output = $ultimatemember->account->get_tab_output('makeedit');
if ( $output ) { echo $output; }

}

/* Finally we add some content in the tab */

add_filter('um_account_content_hook_makeedit', 'um_account_content_hook_makeedit');
function um_account_content_hook_makeedit( $output ){
ob_start();
?>

<div class="um-field">
          <div class="custom-profile-update">
               <?php echo do_shortcode('[ultimatemember form_id=4658]'); ?>
          </div>
</div>		

You put this code into your function.php file. Also it is possible to use child themes' functions.php file.

By the way you can add one more tab with these codes:

add_filter('um_profile_tabs', 'add_custom_profile_tab', 1000 );
function add_custom_profile_tab( $tabs ) {

	$tabs['mycustomtab'] = array(
		'name' => 'Siparişlerim',
		'icon' => 'um-faicon-comments',
	);

	return $tabs;
		
}
/* Then we just have to add content to that tab using this action */

add_action('um_profile_content_mycustomtab_default', 'um_profile_content_mycustomtab_default');
function um_profile_content_mycustomtab_default( $args ) {
	require ("my-orders.php");
}
//----------------------------------------------

add_filter('um_profile_tabs', 'add_custom_profile_tabi', 1000 );
function add_custom_profile_tabi( $tabs ) {

	$tabs['mycustomtab2'] = array(
		'name' => 'My custom tab2',
		'icon' => 'um-faicon-comments',
	);

	return $tabs;
		
}
add_action('um_profile_content_mycustomtab2_default', 'um_profile_content_mycustomtab2_default');
function um_profile_content_mycustomtab2_default( $args ) {
echo "hello";}

Hi,
In the tab I want to write "Members" and link it to the members page. Can anyone please assist?

Hello!

How can I add upload field on my custom tab?

I use this code but it's all blank

`
"/* Finally we add some content in the tab */

add_filter('um_account_content_hook_mytab', 'um_account_content_hook_mytab');
function um_account_content_hook_mytab( $output ){
ob_start();
?>

<div class="um-field">
	
	   <div class="custom-profile-update">
           <?php echo do_shortcode('[ultimatemember form_id=692]'); ?>
	
</div>		
	
<?php
	
$output .= ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
return $output;

}
`

Great examples above but all I would like to do is change the "Posts" tab title to the name of my custom post type "Ratings". I've already got the code to bring in the Ratings. I've searched everywhere and haven't seen any examples of how to change the titles of the existing tabs.
Thanks in advance.

I also need a code example to just change the existing tab names/slugs (Posts,Comments), anyone?

// i am trying to create a custom tab as below

/* First we need to extend main profile tabs */

add_filter('um_profile_tabs', 'add_custom_profile_tab', 1000 );
function add_custom_profile_tab( $tabs ) {

$tabs['createevent'] = array(
	'name' => 'Create Event',
	'icon' => 'um-faicon-comments',
);
	
return $tabs;

}

/* Then we just have to add content to that tab using this action */

add_action('um_profile_content_createevent_default', 'um_profile_content_createevent_default');
function um_profile_content_createevent_default( $args ) {
echo do_shortcode( '[custom_short_code id="274"]' );

}

Problem: Tab disappeared as i replaced mycustomtab to createevent ??

Does this still work in version 2.0? I can't get this to work.

Hi Guys!

Thanks to your comments I have been playing around with the code also but with limited success. I am no developer but at least I was able to add more tabs using the function php file. Now my problem is the following:
I would like my new created tab to redirect to a specific URL.
I have successfully called the tab "Submit Property" but when I click on the tab as a logged in user nothing happens. Can someone supply me with the code in order to redirect the tab to a URL placed outside the plugin please.

I believe i need to make some changes in the last bit of code and add smth like <a href=“URL"> but I am not 100% sure and would appreciate help! Thank you!!

I used this code from "eminsafa" example

---

add_filter('um_profile_tabs', 'add_custom_profile_tab', 1000 );
function add_custom_profile_tab( $tabs ) {

$tabs['mycustomtab'] = array(
	'name' => 'Submit Property',
	'icon' => 'um-faicon-comments',
);

return $tabs;

}
/* Then we just have to add content to that tab using this action */

add_action('um_profile_content_mycustomtab_default', 'um_profile_content_mycustomtab_default');
function um_profile_content_mycustomtab_default( $args ) {
require ("my-orders.php");
}

A BIG THANK YOU

Hi Everyone,

The code still works in UM 2.0+

You need to turn on the profile tab in WP Admin > Ultimate Member > Settings > Profile Menu.

It is turned off by default.

Regards,

Here is the full code to add multiple custom tabs to UM.2.0 - this is put together from the above comments:

/* ------------------------------------------------------------------/
/ CUSTOM TABS /
/ ------------------------------------------ ------------------------*/
add_filter('um_profile_tabs', 'add_custom_profile_tab', 1000 );
function add_custom_profile_tab( $tabs ) {

// tab1 
$tabs['arrival_info'] = array(
	'name' => 'Arrival Info',
	'icon' => 'um-icon-plane',
);
// tab1 
$tabs['program_summary'] = array(
	'name' => 'Program Summary',
	'icon' => 'um-faicon-bars',
);

return $tabs;

}

// tab1 actions
add_action('um_profile_content_arrival_info', 'um_profile_content_arrival_info_default');
add_action('um_profile_content_program_summary', 'um_profile_content_program_summary_default');

// tab2 actions
add_action('um_profile_content_arrival_info_default', 'um_profile_content_arrival_info_default');
add_action('um_profile_content_program_summary_default', 'um_profile_content_program_summary_default');

function um_profile_content_arrival_info_default ( $args ) {
// add tab1 content - exchange the next line for your own content
echo do_shortcode( '[gravityform id="23" title="false" description="false"]');
}
function um_profile_content_program_summary_default ( $args ) {
// add tab2 content - exchange the next line for your own content
echo do_shortcode( '[uv_um_program_summary]');
}

// THIS GOES IN functions.php
// UM.2.0 - You need to turn on the profile tab in WP Admin > Ultimate Member > Settings > Profile Menu.
// IMPORTANT - You also need to hit save on this page - WP Admin > Ultimate Member > Settings > Profile Menu.

Thanks for all the commenst above.

How do I order the default tabs and the two new added tabs in the example code?

Just tried it and it was not working for me.
I had to add custom => true:

$tabs['mycustomtab'] = array(
		'name' => 'My custom tab',
		'icon' => 'um-faicon-comments',
                'custom' => true,
	);

THis seems to work well in basis, but I m having a hard time implementing it the way I would like to.

What I would like to do is to output various profile fields in the tab window.
I have tried to add an ultimate member profile form short code so that I can use the form to display the values that I want to show on the tab. THis does not seem to work at all.

On the other hand if I try to display another short code created by wpforms that works fine.
WHy is the [ultimatemember form_id="1173"] short form not working with this while the wpforms shortcode [wpforms id="1120"] does work?

Is there another way to show Ultimate Member profile fields in the created tab?
Even better would be if I was to be able to allow the user to edit what information showed in the tab, choosing which profile fields would show .

Here is what I have in there now:

// BEGIN ADD PROFILE TABS
/* First we need to extend main profile tabs */

add_filter('um_profile_tabs', 'add_custom_profile_tab', 1000 );
function add_custom_profile_tab( $tabs ) {

$tabs['mycustomtab'] = array(
	'name' => 'My custom tab',
	'icon' => 'um-faicon-comments',
    'custom' => true,
);

return $tabs;

}

/* Then we just have to add content to that tab using this action */

add_action('um_profile_content_mycustomtab_default', 'um_profile_content_mycustomtab_default');
function um_profile_content_mycustomtab_default( $args ) {
echo do_shortcode('[ultimatemember form_id="1173"]');
}
// END ADD PROFILE TABS

Hello,

I need just to add some links (like a Edit, LogOut) in Member Profile Menu. Can you help me please?

Hi there,

Since 2.0.53 version we support Profile Tabs privacy settings for all tabs and 'custom' attribute for custom tabs is deprecated. Instead of this, you could set default privacy for your custom tab. So after the adding of profile tabs, please update your Profile Tabs privacy settings here UM->Settings->Appearances->Profile Menu https://www.screencast.com/t/n2q7MQDoplg

This code still works

// Filter
function um_mycustomtab_add_tab( $tabs ) {
$tabs['mycustomtab'] = array(
'name' => 'My Custom',
'icon' => 'um-faicon-pencil',
);
return $tabs;
}
add_filter( 'um_profile_tabs', 'um_mycustomtab_add_tab', 1000 );

// Action
function um_profile_content_mycustomtab_default( $args ) {
echo 'Hello world!';
}
add_action( 'um_profile_content_mycustomtab_default', 'um_profile_content_mycustomtab_default' );

Thanks!

thanks @nikitasinelnikov

where exactly do we add these lines of code?

hi @rajb686

You could add these lines in your theme or child-theme. Also, you may create your own plugin with all custom solutions at your site and paste these code lines in this plugin.

I recommend inserting these lines to child-theme.

Thanks!

The one which works.

// Filter
function um_add_custom_tabs( $tabs ) {
    $tabs['account'] = array(
        'name' => 'Edit Account',
        'icon' => 'um-faicon-pencil',
        'custom' => TRUE
    );

    $tabs['profile'] = array(
        'name' => 'Edit Profile',
        'icon' => 'um-faicon-pencil',
        'custom' => TRUE
    );

    return $tabs;
}
add_filter( 'um_profile_tabs', 'um_add_custom_tabs', 1000 );

// Action
function um_profile_content_edit_account_default( $args ) {
    echo do_shortcode('[ultimatemember_account]');
}
add_action( 'um_profile_content_account_default', 'um_profile_content_edit_account_default' );


function um_profile_content_profile_default( $args ) {
    wp_redirect( "/user?profiletab=main&um_action=edit" );
}
add_action( 'um_profile_content_profile_default', 'um_profile_content_profile_default' );

I've got custom tabs added ok, and are now looking at adding content within those tabs. I can add text in using echo, or a shortcode or a re-direct from the code snippets above.

What i'm trying to do is embed a different pre-existing page within the new custom tab, so that it will display there without me having to hard code it into the function.php file.

I think i'm just missing the right syntax to be able to do this?

@CoachAlng Did you figure this out? I'm looking to do the same 🙂

Tabs are producing the data I want. In back-end of Ultimate member all functions are working correctly but I'm having an issue with privacy.

I have echoed user roles with:

which are:

um_musician-level-1
um_musician-level-2
um_musician-level-3

I need SOUNDCLOUD and YOUTUBE tab for role = um_musician-level-3

Anyone can see the tab on any profile as long as said profile has role = um_musician-level-3

Level 3 will always have the tab on their profile. Level 1 and 2 should not because they have not paid for it.

I had it working I BELIEVE but got so deep into other coding as you can see below I must have made a typo.
