What it does
Membership and community sites often end up with cluttered menus, where logged-in members still see a Register link and guests see an Edit Profile link that leads nowhere useful. This add-on fixes that by letting you decide who sees each menu item. You can show or hide items for specific user roles, or hide them for logged-in or logged-out visitors, so each person gets navigation that matches where they are on your site.
It works inside the standard WordPress menu system and requires the Profile Builder plugin. You can add Register, Login and Edit Profile forms as menu items and have them open in iFrame popups, so users fill in a form without leaving the page they are on. Login, logout and a dedicated logout button are also available as menu items. It suits any site where users have accounts and need quick access to their profile tools.
Best for
- Membership sites built with Profile Builder
- Online communities with registered user accounts
- Sites that show different menus to different user roles

Questions about Custom Profile Menus
Do I need Profile Builder for this add-on to work?
Yes. Custom Profile Menus is an add-on that requires the Profile Builder plugin. It extends Profile Builder Pro by adding its Register, Login and Edit Profile forms and account links to your WordPress menus.
Can I hide the Register link once someone is logged in?
