Hi Angela,

The macro only has the one parameter, "username".  I could not get it to display the About Me field on my test instance, either.

I opened a suggestion ticket to ask the development team to include the About Me field in the macro in a future release: Display "About Me" field in User Profile macro

You may comment or vote on the ticket to emphasize your use case to the developers. Doing so will add you as a watcher so you will know when there are updates.

Thanks,

Ann
