Profile Strength indicator

The Profile Strength indicator is something that shows when a user edits their profile, and on a user's profile page for the page owner and admins. Essentially, the more information a user adds to their profile, the stronger their profile strength. Below the Profile Strength indicator in edit mode, a user sees the last field they filled out that added to their Profile Strength, and suggestions on which fields to fill out next.



By default, 14 fields contribute to profile strength: profile photo, first name, last name, title, email, telephone, mobile, address, birthday, bio, manager, groups, languages spoken, and skills. Administrators can choose whether to display the Profile Strength indicator and which fields will contribute to the Profile Strength.
