CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Hi,

I've activated the "access Contact Dashboard" permission for authenticated user on my install and I created a menu item linking to "/civicrm/user?reset=1" that's only visible to authenticated user. However, after a couple of tests, I've realised that CiviCRM doesn't display the right profile: e.g. Mr Smith register with his email but he lands on Mr O'Leary's dashboard.

Is there a config I should change?

From what I understand, authenticated user should be able to access and edit their profile if they register on Drupal with the same email that's on their CiviCRM profile (and if, obviously, they got the permissions). What I want to do is allow users to access and edit their own profile only.

OK, I've added a contact with my email and I created a Drupal user with the same email.

I've got the same problem: I land on mario mario's dashboard and the contact I created was Bob Geldof.

I've tried again and it's working.

However, I've noticed that Drupal is now asking for my name when I create an account.

we load the db's on a periodic basis (weekly) on demo. We've been tweaking the db's to have a better setup and hence have been loading them seperately last week (drupal and civicrm). this caused the drupal users table to be out of sync with civicrm's civicrm_uf_match table. hence we were matching users to contacts erroneously.

i reloaded the civicrm database and things were fixed

thats a demo server. So we just reset it on a periodic basis (definitely not recommended for production)

if you are still having the issue, please truncate your civicrm_uf_match table either via PhpMyAdmin or mysql command line. that should resolve the issue
