A membership userA user with limited privileges, such as writing to a community forum, but not having the same privileges as a forum moderator, or an administrator who has access to the Workarea. (A community user is the same as a membership user.) can access his or her profile page only from the website.
An Ektron user can access his or her profile from the Workarea or the website. Go to Settings > Users. See Managing users.
IMPORTANT: For Ektron users, some profile information in the Workarea’s View User Information screen is not available on the website profile page. That information involves Workarea settings.
An administrator can access user profiles from the Workarea. Go to Settings > Community Management > Memberships > Users. See Membership users and groups.
