Description
The User Tags addon adds to Ultimate Member a system of **assignable tags to user profiles**, allowing each member to receive tags that appear on the public profile and function as filters in the member directory. Designed for those managing communities segmented by interest, specialty, or affinity, the module organizes the user base into navigable groups without requiring custom taxonomies via code.
Main Features of User Tags
- Tag assignment to profile
Each member can receive one or multiple tags displayed directly on the public profile. - Individual tag page
Generates a dedicated page for each tag, grouping all users marked with it. - Filter in member directory
Adds tags as filtering criteria in Member Directory listings. - User-managed administration
Allows members to choose and edit their own tags in the account area. - Administrative control in the dashboard
The administrator creates, edits, and removes tags through the WordPress management area.
Benefits of User Tags
- More navigable community
Visitors find related profiles by browsing tags instead of searching by name. - Segmentation without code
Organizes interest groups within the member base without custom development. - Member engagement
Brings users with common affinities closer, encouraging spontaneous connections on the site. - Flexible editorial curation
Administration adjusts the tag vocabulary as the community profile evolves.
Who is User Tags Recommended For?
- Those managing niche communities in Ultimate Member who need to group members by interest or specialty.
- Professional networking sites listing consultants, coaches, or providers classified by area of expertise.
- Operators of member directories wanting to offer richer filters than just search by name or role.

- Download the file
um-user-tags.zip. - In the WordPress dashboard, go to Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin.
- Select the file
um-user-tags.zip, click Install Now and then Activate.
- Both stay active at the same time. Deactivating the Ultimate Member plugin turns this add-on off with it.
