Multiple Edit Profile Forms

Activating the Multiple Edit Profile Forms Add-on

The Multiple Edit Profile Forms add-on is available only with a Profile Builder Pro, or Agency license.

After purchasing the Pro, or Agency version of Profile Builder, you can check the following guide on how to install Profile Builder.

Multiple Edit Profile Forms with Different Fields

After using Multiple Registration Forms to register different user roles with different fields, it makes sense to set up multiple edit profile forms and offer all these user types an option to access and edit their (different) profile information.

Using the Multiple Edit Profile addon you can set up one or more front-end edit profile forms with different fields.

After activating the addon from the Addons UI, the Edit-profile Forms tab will show up in the Profile Builder menu.

Here you can edit all the existing Edit Profile forms as well as add a new form. If you haven’t created any Edit Profile form yet, you will be taken directly to the Add New Edit Profile page.

Adding a new Edit Profile Form

To add a new Edit Profile form, simply click the “Add New” button and enter a form Title.

After, you can customize your Edit Profile form using the options below:

• Redirect – You can choose whether to redirect the user to a specific page or not
• Display Messages – The allowed time to display any success messages (in seconds)
• URL – Specify the URL of the page users will be redirected to once they update their profile using this form
• Ajax Validation – Use AJAX to validate this form without reloading the page

Managing Edit Profile Form Fields

When setting up a new edit profile form you can choose which fields to appear in it.

You can easily add, edit or delete any of the fields defined in the Manage Fields tab. You can also drag & drop to reorder the fields to your liking.

You can have for example a lite registration, where users fill in only some basic fields, followed by a detailed edit profile where they are required to fill in more information.
Also using the two addons you can have some fields only show up on registration and not on the edit profile, making them not visible and editable by the user afterwards.

This setup offers major flexibility for managing your user fields.

Edit Profile Form Shortcode

After setting up the edit profile form options and fields you can go ahead and “Publish” it.

After publishing, you will be prompted with a form shortcode that can be used to display the form on the front-end.
