  206 +## User information in error reports
  207 +
  208 +Errbit can now display information about the user who experienced an error.
  209 +This gives you the ability to ask the user for more information,
  210 +and let them know when you've fixed the bug.
  211 +
  212 +The Airbrake gem will look for ```current_user``` or ```current_member```. By defailt it will only send the ```id``` of the user, to specify other attributes you can set ```config.user_attributes```. See [the Airbrake wiki for more information](https://github.com/airbrake/airbrake/wiki/Sending-current-user-information).
  213 +
  214 +If user information is received with an error report,
  215 +it will be displayed under the *User Details* tab:
  216 +
  217 +![User details tab](http://errbit.github.com/errbit/images/error_user_information.png)
  218 +
  219 +This tab will be hidden if no user information is available.
