Manage custom profile fields

Last updated: September, 2026

Once you have set up a profile field, you can easily control its visibility, organization, and modification from the profile fields dashboard.

To manage your profile fields:

1. Click Audience in the left sidebar, then select Profile fields.

2. Click Manage in the top-right corner.

Profile field management page is divided into three main areas:

1. Top bar: To switch between page views

2. Sidebar: To manage profile fields

3. Preview pane: To preview changes in real-time

In the top bar, you can switch between pages to manage the fields for each page. You can limit the visibility of your custom profile fields on these page views depending on the nature of the information and use case.

When members go through the sign-up process, they are prompted with the sign-up form to add their profile information. This is usually an ideal place to make all the non-internal fields visible to ensure the information collection at the beginning of a member’s journey.

This is a member-facing form accessible only to members when they navigate to edit their community profile. Enabling field visibility on this page allows members to update their responses.

The view profile page is visible to all the members of your community so that members can view each other’s profiles by clicking the member’s name or profile icon. This is an ideal place for profile fields that showcase information and member engagement.

The left sidebar on each page view displays all fields and lets you easily manage them for that page view.

Simply drag and drop your profile fields to re-arrange their order.

❗Important: Please note that system fields marked with 🔒 icon are locked in place. You cannot re-arrange them or move any other field on top or between these locked fields.
