UserProfile When first logging in, wiki users automatically create their profile page. Every link to the username in the wiki - for example from the title area of a wiki page or from a mention - leads to this page. Users can edit their own profile information.
Usage / features
- Image - In the profile information, users can upload a photo or create an avatar image. If an avatar is created, a previously uploaded photo is deleted and must be uploaded again if it is to be used instead of the avatar image.
- Profile data - Users can edit their own profile data. Administrators can also edit the profile information of other users. The available fields for the user profile can be defined in the server configuration.
- Free text - Below the profile infobox, users can add additional free text to their profile page. The page opens in visual editing mode for this purpose.

- Content droplet - The "User profile" content droplet allows the display of user profile information on any wiki page.
- Content Droplet in vertical orientation
- Content Droplet in horizontal orientation
Installation
- Download and move the extracted
UserProfile
folder to yourextensions/
directory.
Developers and code contributors should install the extension from Git instead, using:cd extensions/ git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/extensions/UserProfile
- Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:
wfLoadExtension( 'UserProfile' );
Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.
Template "Userpage standard content"
- By default, each profile page contains the "Userpage standard content" template. This allows wiki administrators to display predefined content on all profile pages.
- When administrators add content to this page, they must inform users that this standard template must not be manually deleted from the page.
- To add the droplet:
- Select the "User profile" content droplet.
- Specify the username and layout options.
- Click Done.
