Shortcodes
[ultimatemember_wall] #
The [ultimatemember_wall] shortcode is designed for the user profile page, exclusively showcasing a user's wall posts. It does not display single posts or hashtags directly. Instead, the hashtag link leads to the predefined Activity page. Additionally, the shortcode supports the display of the user's wall form.

The [ultimatemember_activity] shortcode offers a comprehensive view of site-wide activities. Users can filter by hashtag or a specific wall post.
