CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Dear All,

Hopefully someone can help me with this.  Until very recently, Drupal users with Drupal accounts were able to log into their accounts and edit a Civicrm profile embedded into their user accounts.  I logged in as a non-admin user today to see that while the button for the CiviCRM profile (called "Member Information") appears in the profile, there is no way to edit or view that information.

The settings for this civicrm profile are: 

- All fields are Individual or Contact, View Only is NOT checked
- All fields are visible to "User and Admin Only"
- Profile settings are: Drupal User Registration and View/Edit User account, Account Creation Required, Update Matching Contact

In Drupal:
- Authenticated users may Profile Create, Profile Edit and Profile View

My ACL settings in CiviCRM:

Authenticated User = Membership Type That Can Create Website Profiles
Profile permissions for Authenticated User = All functions permitted for "Membership Information" profile

So, now I am at a loss.  I have no idea why this was working previously and suddenly is no longer working.  Can anyone offer any suggestions as to what may have gone wrong?

Thanks

Hi Pete,

Yes, I think we are experiencing the same issue.  I am working with CiviCRM 3.2.2, Drupal 6.19.  I haven't updated from when the profile stuff worked and now, and when I was setting the site up, I created a non-admin user account so I could check that everything is working for users and it was fine.  I don't know what happened, but at least I'm not alone! 

I also suspect that it's a CiviCRM ACL issue, but I'm not sure what to do.  I disabled the ACL related to this profile and I was still experiencing the problem.

What have you been thinking about trying?

OK
 I had to go digging to figure out how it works when a profile is displayed to be edited via drupal user form

but

1) a list of profile fields is retrieved.
2) The code determines whether the logged in user is 'admin'
3) Any fields with the visibility 'user or user admin' are checked & if the logged in user is NOT 'admin' then the fields are removed from the output.

'Admin' is determined by
1) User had drupal permission 'administer users' OR
2) user is the contact being viewed
3) User has passed in a checksum
4) User has been given ACL permission to view the specific Profile.

(this does mean that a user will not be able to see fields viewing the profile that they can see when viewing the contact).

So, I've managed to make the CiviCRM profile appear in user's member profile, but they are still unable to edit it.  I mostly futzed with Drupal permissions to get the profile info to appear on user profiles, but I am now stuck at letting people edit their info.

In my Drupal User Permissions, all of the following are checked for Authenticated Users --

profile create   
profile edit   
profile listings   
profile listings and forms   
profile view

So now, a user can view the CiviCRM profile in their profile when they log in, but when they click "edit" they can edit their Account Info (username and password) but not the CiviCRM profile here: user/(user id #)/edit/Member Information

The strange thing is that when I log in as a standard user and go to: http://www.DOMAIN.org/index.php?q=civicrm/profile/edit&reset=1&id=16&gid=8     

I am able to edit the user's profile info, save it, and all is well.  Then, when I go to "edit" in the profile, I see profile fields for the CiviCRM profile and I am able to edit them like I should be able to.  But when I log out and then log back in, the option to edit profile info is gone once again. 

Ugh!  Does anyone have any idea what's going on here?  Thanks!  For now, I guess I will provide the direct link to www.DOMAIN.org/index.php?q=civicrm/profile/edit&reset=1&id=16&gid=8   in membership menu so people can edit their info if they want.

Hi,

Are you sure you do not use hook on drupal side for login as hook_user_login() ?

I spent 5 hours with the same problem.... to finally figure I was using drupal_goto to redirect on a welcome page and it avoid CiviCRM to set-up session...

If you made the same mistake, use $edit['redirect'] = 'mynewpage'; in your hook_user_login() instead of drupal_goto and everything will be back as expected 

Regards,
