I'm trying to send user edit page to the user profile page (/user), so I can get user profile informations and user edit form on the same page.

function hook_preprocess_user_profile(&$vars) {
  global $user;
  $account = user_load($user->uid);
  $vars['form'] = drupal_get_form('user_profile_form', $account);
}

Then in user-profile.tpl.php I have the following :

<?php print drupal_render($form['field_user_address']); ?>
<?php // Print necessary validation fields and remove others
      unset($form['field_user_society_id']);
      unset($form['field_user_locations']);
      unset($form['locale']);
      unset($form['account']);
      print drupal_render($form);
 ?>

It works well, I have my form, the datas are coming into it but when saving it, even if I get status message "Changes have been saved" actually no datas are saved.

I tried to put module_load_include('inc', 'user', 'user.pages');in a hook_init() and in a form_alter, but no way to get the form datas saved.

Thanks for helping.

  • Could it be because 'account' is being removed?

  • Sorry, I had forgottent some infos. $account is just a var for user_load.

  • You could try hook_url_inbound_alter and hook_url_outbound_alter for 'faking' front-end paths. It would allow you to serve the form under a different url. But I am not sure if it overrides hook_menu. Otherwise you would have to use hook_menu_alter to remove the user path, but then you will probably run into weird issues where user/login and user/logout are no longer available.

  • Actually my users get logged through a oauth2 api. What I need is to get the user profile information and the user edit form on the same page. So It's not about a url problem :). Thanks for helping.

  • @Aporie, that is quite an important detail :) I assumed you wanted to replace the profile information entirely. Could you edit it into the question? Commented May 1, 2018 at 18:14

So, the solution was quite simple.

I just needed to remove the call to $form['field_user_address']

//<?php print drupal_render($form['field_user_address']); ?>
<?php // Print necessary validation fields and remove others
      unset($form['field_user_society_id']);
      unset($form['field_user_locations']);
      unset($form['locale']);
      unset($form['account']);
      print drupal_render($form);
 ?>
