## Description

Ever wished you could add custom pages to the BuddyPress profile menu? Here’s a 
plugin for that. Simply install and activate the plugin, add your custom menu page(
s). That’s it, Bingo!

The **Custom Profile Menu for BuddyPress** plugin lets you add custom _static_ pages
to the BuddyPress profile menu. Extend the extremely limited BuddyPress profile 
menu by adding your desired number of custom pages to it, with your desired content
along with the built-in _Home_, _Activity_, _Profile_, _Notifications_, and _Settings_
items.

### Use Cases

The major use case of this plugin would be adding custom sections to the BuddyPress
profile, e.g. a _terms & conditions page_ or static pages with _shortcodes for forms,
appointment bookings, WooCommerce products, and other infinite possibilities_.

### Core Features

The core features of the plugin include the abilities to:
 * Add custom static pages
to the BuddyPress profile menu * Add submenu pages by assigning a parent menu page*
Set a default submenu page for a parent submenu page * Re-order the menu items.

### Installation

Installation of the **Custom Profile Menu for BuddyPress** plugin is very simple.

Was looking for something as simple as possible to add a menu item to a profile 
for BuddyPress or BuddyBoss. This works well and can accommodate shortcodes as well
so there is flexibility without being too complicated. This will be a nice way to
see what code is necessary for this also for this basic functionality. Well done!
