🌟 Overview
We’ve rolled out a major refresh of the member profile header experience across Locticians Community & Directory. This release focuses on design upgrades, UX improvements, and feature logic enhancements that make profiles more engaging, trustworthy, and action-oriented for members and visitors.
🔑 Key Highlights
1. Modernized Profile Header
- Larger avatar display, now styled with auto-tinted outlines and shadows that adapt to the member’s primary action (ThriveSeat, ThrivePeer, CrownThriveU, CrownRewards, or Get Matched).
- Avatar framed inside a clean card container for consistency with other widgets.
- Streamlined identity block with:
- "Posted by" label.
- Prominent display of member name.
- Verified badge shown above the name for trust.
2. Action-Driven CTA Precedence Logic
The header dynamically determines which primary call-to-action to show based on availability:
- ThriveSeat – Quick booking integration.
- ThrivePeer – One-to-one mentorship booking.
- CrownThriveU – Instructor courses.
- CrownRewards – Loyalty card view.
- Fallback: Get Matched program.
This ensures members always have a clear, relevant next step without clutter or confusion.
3. Unified Button Styling
- Buttons now inherit brand color schemes from each ecosystem platform:
- ThriveSeat – Deep green.
- ThrivePeer – Blue teal.
- CrownThriveU – Royal blue.
- CrownRewards – Slate gray.
- Get Matched – Vibrant success green.
- Responsive adjustments:
- Mobile: Full-width stacked buttons.
- Desktop: Flexible, non-block width alignment.
- Icons + labels for faster recognition (calendar, envelope, ID card, magic wand, etc.).
4. Enhanced Author Block
- Avatar auto-resizes for perfect clarity.
- Outline/shadow colors automatically tint based on the active CTA button color.

- Cleaner spacing between labels (e.g., Posted by → Author name).
- Matching sidebar avatar settings for consistent branding.
- Cards now provide subtle hover/tap interactions for better engagement.
🛠 Technical Notes
