This Plugin gives you the possibility to hide the Dashboard before selected users. 
It is very flexible, since it works with an extra capability “Hide Dashboard”. 
This capability can be assigned to one or more roles and/or as an extra capability to one or more users.
Users with hidden Dashboard will be redirected to their profile-page.
You need also the “<a href="http://www.im-web-gefunden.de/wordpress-plugins/role-manager/" title="Role Manager Plugin for WordPress" rel="nofollow ugc">Role Manager Plugin</a>” for this Plugin.

WP User Profiles

A great addition to the profile page and I look forward to extending it.

Works wonders for the Profile page

This plugin is genius. Documentation could be better, so for that matter, I'm sharing my code that I used to extend this wonderful plugin: https://github.com/bigwing/wp-user-profiles-custom

Great Work and Very Extensible

So Happy I Found This. I had spend a day testing plugins such as Ultimate Member, BuddyPress, Types to get me at least 70% to my goal. This plugin is best in class when it comes to cleaning up user profiles. Very lightweight, only deals with user profiles, and does not add in all the 'member' or 'social' aspects of other plugins. Wish I discovered this plugin sooner.

Have since forked it on GitHub and look forward to contributing. 

Great job!

Best in Class

Hey,
Great idea to organize items to tabs, but this thing didn't work with Members (https://wordpress.org/plugins/members/) plugin. Ability to select multiple roles just wasn't there, only ability to select one role, plus pressing Update would give an error.

Not working with Members plugin

This is a plugin that transforms WP User Profiles to what it should be. Highly recommended.

Using it everywhere
