In this blog post, we’ll walk you through the process of creating a WordPress.org profile, step by step. Whether you’re a seasoned WordPress user or a complete beginner, this guide will make the process quick and easy.

Why Do You Need a WordPress.org Profile?

WordPress.org is the official platform for WordPress, where users can access resources, contribute to the community, and participate in forums. Having a profile helps you:

  • Engage with the WordPress community.
  • Contribute to WordPress through support forums, translations, themes, and plugins.
  • Register and buy tickets for WordCamp events like WordCamp Nepal 2025.

Step 1: Sign Up for an Account

Go to the WordPress.org registration page: https://login.wordpress.org/register.

Step 2: Fill Out the Registration Form

You’ll see a registration form asking for the following details:

  • Username: Choose a unique username. This will be your identity on WordPress.org, so pick something that represents you well.
  • Email Address: Enter a valid email address. This will be used for account verification and communication.
  • Privacy Policy: Tick the box to confirm you’ve read and accepted the privacy policy.
  • Other Fields: These are optional and can be filled out later.

Once you’ve filled in the required details, click Create Account.

Step 3: Verify Your Email

After submitting the form, you’ll receive a confirmation email from WordPress.org. Open the email and click on the verification link to activate your account and set a password. If you don’t see the email, check your spam or promotions folder.

Step 4: Complete Your Profile

After logging in, visit your profile by clicking on your username at the top-right corner. You can add details such as:

  • Display Name (if different from your username)
  • Profile Picture (via Gravatar)
  • Bio, Website, and Social Links
