+=====================
+Profile configuration
+=====================
+
+The user profile presents the information of a user and is enabled by default
+for all users. Users may individually enable or disable their profile in their
+Personal info settings under the Personal settings section.
+
+As an administrator you may change the default for new users and may also
+disable profile globally to remove all profile functionality.
+
+To enable or disable profile by default for new users switch the toggle in
+Basic settings under the Administration settings section.
+
+.. figure:: ../images/profile_default_setting.png
+
+.. note:: If you are upgrading from Nextcloud 22 to 23 and want profile to
+  be disabled by default for all users, you may run the ``occ`` command below
+  before upgrading or upgrade first then switch the toggle in Basic settings
+  before letting any users log in.
+
+::
+
+  occ config:app:set settings profile_enabled_by_default --value="0"
+
+Please refer to :doc:`../configuration_server/occ_command` for all available
+``occ`` commands.
+
+To disable profile globally add the following line to your ``config.php``
+
+::
+
+  'profile.enabled' => false,
+
+Please refer to :doc:`../configuration_server/config_sample_php_parameters` for
+all available ``config.php`` options.
