CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Hi all,

got two roles (guest and activist) in drupal. Each role is mapped as a subtype in civicrm.

I'd like to be able to let the user switch from one to the other. When she does that, she need to provide extra info about her.

My initial idea was to create a new profile "update from guest to activist" that contains the extra info, and write a post hook that when saved
1) change the contact subtype
2) change the role in drupal

Also, it seems that the url for profile edit  http://example.org/civicrm/profile/edit?gid=10&reset=1&id=xxx needs the contact id. Would it make sense to modify profile/edit so if there isn't any id in the get param, it takes the id of the logged in user ?

Do you have a better idea to implement that ?
