    Hello!
    Firstly, thanks your awesome plugin!

    I just want add to the current users’s “bio box” to the sidebar (or below the posts, doesn’t matter) on post’s pages. I dont find plugin or extension for this.
    Now I use the “Simple Author Box” by Macho Themes, this also works fine, but I would like to, if the bio box including the current cover photo (um-cover-e) in the plugins background.

    So, if you dont have plugin or extension for this, my question this:
    How can i get the current user’s “um-cover-e”, so ultimate member cover photo?
    or

    Maybe the best solution that would be if i can get the full current’s UM-member profile, with the cover, avatar and description, and in this case I don’t should third party plugin.

    Hi @noitcif,

    I’m afraid, we don’t have this kind of author section and do not recommend adding your user page shortcode to the sidebar, however, some themes have the dedicated author section it and add it to the posts. Adding this section would require some customization.
    Thanks for letting us know about this option I will discuss it with the team and we will see if we can add this feature in the future updates.

    Regards.

    If someone would still think about it change the biobox code (or you can create your own) with the UM images, here is an example with the “Simple Author Box” by Macho Themes:

    modified “get avatar”:
    echo '<img src="' . network_home_url( '/wp-content/uploads/ultimatemember/' . $sabox_author_id . '/profile_photo-190.png') . '" alt="avatar">';

    get the cover:
    echo '<div class="saboxplugin-wrap" style="background-image: url(' . network_home_url( '/wp-content/uploads/ultimatemember/' . $sabox_author_id . '/cover_photo-600.jpg') . ');">';
