This recipe will redirect the specified “Membership Account” page to the bbPress Profile for your member. A recipe is also included to insert the pmpro_account shortcode before other default content in the “Profile” tab of this page. You can use the base shortcode pmpro_account OR specify sections to display using the “sections” attribute of the shortcode.
