Editing own's profile and own's content

[Guy Verville]

Hi,

This question is perhaps dumb. How can a user change his/her profile? I get this empty window when logged as un regular user.

The fields are set to be vewable in the User template.

There will be numerous users that will be able to write blog entries. What if I want to restrict tue editing to own's content?  In the following example, the user logged is not the author of the page. So he shouldn't be able to edit it.

Role needs permission to do so.

[Guy Verville]

They have... This is what puzzles me...

[Guy Verville]

I can add this. Even the super user I am can't see directly the profile page...

But I can  by going here

I'm lost!

[Soma]

Works fine here. Nor sure, any custom modules messing with it?

[Guy Verville]

Nothing fancy...

• InlineEditor
• ImportPagesCSV
• Thumbnails
• ProcessRedirects
• FormBuilder
• InputfieldCKEditor

I did however tried the Blog module, but removed it. Had it corrupted some process? I hope not...  

The site is bilingual.

[Soma]

And what's the error?

[Guy Verville]

Nothing is shown... as described above. Just a blank page showing a purple band with no message. Nothing in the page source either...

[Soma]

Why is there no error message? In the error log? Debug true turned on.

Deinstalled custom modules one by one? PW Versions? etc...

[Guy Verville]

Thank you to have reminded me of turning on the debug mode... But it doesn't help understand the problem in my point of view. It seems to be template related.

[Guy Verville]

BTW, this is 2.5.3. Will desinstall module to see if it changes something

[Guy Verville]

I have discovered this. Any suggestion? The role field is there...

[Guy Verville]

I have found the culprit, an image field associated to the user template. I don't know what is going wrong with this field. I will try to recreate it to see what happens.

You previously mentioned the Blog Module. Is this image field related to Blog?

[Guy Verville]

I don't think so. Well, I don't remember if this image field was already set before I removed the module. I will certainly send a link to fetch the entire site to the Processwire team if they are interested of finding the cause of this mysterioius error. This is certainly an area to be looked at for improvement. I will anyway post something about the problem I see to have just one user template for two kind of operations (user admin and profile edit. There is only one context for both usages).

[Soma]

From the error. Looks like you have a field dependency on a field using "role" field. First, "role" isn't a field but "roles". Second, roles aren't shown on when you view/edit your profile. It's not the same as editing a user.

[kongondo]

I don't think so. Well, I don't remember if this image field was already set before I removed the module. ....

What was the name of the image field?

[Guy Verville]

Hello, Soma, you were right for the role which was set wrongly. However, the problem persists with my image field. I even checked the data (with the useful button found in the form) and PW saids it was ok. I compared my field with the already installed images field, and copied exactly the same settings for my image field, but to no avail. When I removed my field from the user template, everything went back to normal! So my solution will be to recreate the field since it seems definitively corrupted.

Kongondo, the field is called professionnel_photo

[kongondo]

OK, so not part of the Blog module then...

[Soma]

I found by searching the forum for your image name "professionnel_photo" that it is a crop image (apeisa thumbnail) field. CropImage isn't compatible with user profile page editing.

I tried adding a cropimage to user template and make it editable on the profile. It works fine but after trying to add an image I get same error as your's and can't edit profil anymore.

[Soma]

Issue seems with InputfieldCropImage.module rendering and testing if user is allowed to edit the current page, which is not there. It's not on context of a page edit. User profile doesn't have a "page" editing with an url param "id". Even if, the user isn't allowed to edit "user” page.

ProcessProfile #67 fails

$inputfield->value = $this->user->get($field->name);

InputfieldCropImage.module in renderItem() fails and throws empty exception

$page = $this->pages->get((int) $this->input->get->id);
if(!$page->id || !$page->editable()) throw new WirePermissionException(); // empty

[Guy Verville]

Thank you for the info. The images field, already found in the PW installation has been set also to the CropImage settings, and it does not throw any error. But I will test again to be sure.
