Where does the profile page come from?

At the beginning of the lesson, the profile page is referenced (to pull json from). I'm not seeing a profile page for users created with the plugin, just the settings/options page. I've been following along with the other WP plugin lessons so far, do I need a different WP install for this part of the project with info already set up? Or do I need to add a .json file with info to pull from? Am I missing something really simple?

Nevermind...figured it out. It pulls from the treehouse site, but I needed to enter my own treehouse username (or another valid treehouse username) within the badges/settings page.
