    Hi, is it possible to add a custom button in the user’s profile? I would like to add a shortcode that displays a “tip the author” shortcode. Is this possible? I am pretty new with this so any help would be appreciated. It is shortcode, not html. Thanks

    Hello Amanda,

    Try the following code:

    
    add_action( 'bp_before_member_header_meta', function () {
    	echo do_shortcode('[your shortcode goes here]');
    } );
    
    

    Please let me know if it works or not.

    Regards
    Ravi

    Hello Amanda,

    you can place this code under the active theme ‘functions.php’ file or ‘bp-custom.php’.

    For more info on the bp-custom file please refer to the following link:
