Hi,
I've created 2 profiles types with a lot of extra fields. Now users stort to fill in their profiles?
As an admin I would like to see the profiles? how can I see the profile pages from other users as an admin?

The admin has the permission to Administer profiles (Edit and view all user profiles.) but there is no tab or link on a user page to see the extra profile pages of that user?

Any help? did I miss something in the permissions??

Same situation here. Not sure how to view a Profile2 user profile. I just get Page Not Found. Tried http://www.mysite.com/profilename/username .. nothing.

Make sure the profile type has Profile page enabled in custom display settings.

I have them as enabled.
There is no link to the 'Profile Page' anywhere.
Where should the link appear, or what is the url to it?

Yes you can use a link, I think: profile-profilename/[pid]

I am getting an 'Access denied' error for users/profile-pid. I double-checked permissions and enabled the custom display. Any help would be appreciated

The biggest issue with this for us, is that the links don't use URL aliases for the profiles.
So if we insert a custom menu, or link to the profile the URL reads users/profile-X.
Where users/profile/[TITLE] or something would be preferable.

Because of this, we opted for making Profiles with a content type, and then giving a user reference to the node.
This doesn't create the lovely user integration of this module, but it did allow us to have custom profiles, referenced from a user menu, with pretty urls.

I'd be interested if an added tab menu, and pretty urls for profiles can be implemented.

Under edit select "Provide a separate page for editing profiles." and a new menu entry will be created for that profile. You can then place it anywhere you want.

I'm running into the same problem. I've selected "Provide a separate page for editing profiles" in my profile type, but no menu item is generated anywhere. Help?

Sorry if I'm being slow but ... I'm obviously missing something

Where that "menu entry" is created? because I can not find it anywhere

The only difference I see (after enabling "provide a separate ...") is that it disappears the link to the profile at the page user/*/edit so I don't know where to access that page or form

Same here... I've had access to custom profile fields when creating a user (when logged as admin, I've not tried from anonymous user yet), but after the user was created, no way to retrieve fields : neither being logged as admin nor being logged as the user itself.

I might be wrong, but I believe that if you want to access the profile page of a specific user, the link is:

profile-[profile_type]/[uid]

where [profile_type] needs to be replaced by the machine name of your profile type (main for example) and [uid] by the user id...

Answering my own question at #10

- On the user menu, that to see it, needs to be enabled at the blocks admin page admin/structure/block

I believe that there are a couple of issues.

First, even if there is a menu entry under the user menu, isn't it just for "edit my profile" as opposed to letting an admin edit the user's profile?

Second, there doesn't appear to be a way to use the user's name in the URL, so the admin has to look up the user ID for the person whose profile is to be edited.

Could this be addressed?

I just tried pathauto_entity and it allowed me to create aliases for viewing profiles using profile name /[profile2:user:name].

If I need to edit the profile, I can then just click on the edit tab.

So, as long as I know the user's name, I can get to the profile(s) without having to know the user ID.
