I'm loving the SimplePress Forums for my site! But have a change I'd like to add.
When a new member goes to the Forum page, it brings up their profile. I would like to do either
a) go to the Forum page and require the new member to fill out a profile before posting is allowed or
b) have clear instructions on the profile page should read something like, "Complete your profile information then click the Forum menu tab to access the Forum." (I'd prefer option A.)
Is there a way to do either one of these options? I've looked in every single setting and in these forums.
I'm using SimplePress 4.5.1 and WP 3.3.1 and would prefer to keep using v4.5.1 since we're launching in 2 days, but let me know if what I'm asking isn't possible unless I upgrade.
Thanks!

Afraid neither of those options is available automatically as you have already found. Not are they in V5. Your option b would be doable in V5 with a filter and a small piece of custom code. I would have to check if we have a filter in the right spot although they are easy enough to add.

That would be great if you could see if the filter is in the right spot and easy to add.
Thanks!

You tell me where you want to put your message (using V5) and I can make sure we cover it.

can assure you we are done with any updates to 4.5...
you can make new users have to go to the profile form on their first login (both 4.5 and 5.0) but no current way to force some sort of form change...
in 5.0, you can already control the main message displayed to users on the profile (ie your option b message)...
