Idea: Welcome Message on Profile Pages
-
I’m looking for more ways to personalize Profile pages and this seems like a common sense feature. Just a simple sentence in bigger type at below the avatar and above the nav menu.
I can see people saying: “Thanks for checking me out! Join my ______ group for more about ________”
Or even “I do _________. Send me a message if you need __________.”

It wouldn’t be too difficult to do this now. If you created a new profile field for a “profile welcome message”, users could insert whatever they wanted in that area. Then you’d just need to display that field in the member-header.php file. There’s even a comment there to show how to do it.
Alternatively, hook into bp_profile_header_meta and display the “profile welcome message” field with bp_profile_field_data( ‘field=fieldName’ ).
