Describe the problem you have found:

We cannot use $content array for our fields display. $content works for all other template files. Rather, we need to use $user_profile. And so, if we are trying to display a field with a machine name 'field_cool', we would try and render it this way:

<?php
render($user_profile['field_cool']);
?>

I don't understand what the documentation problem is here that you are trying to report?

The documentation says:


Use render($user_profile) to print all profile items, or print a subset such as render($content['field_example'])

This needs to be:

Use render($user_profile) to print all profile items, or print a subset such as render($user_profile['field_example'])

right?

Title: Documentation problem with user-profile.tpl.php » user-profile.tpl.php doc has confusing/misleading first paragraph
Version: 7.x-dev » 8.x-dev
Status: Postponed (maintainer needs more info) » Active
Issue tags: +Needs backport to D7

Thanks for the clarification!

I think that whole first paragraph probably needs to be rewritten.

Sorry. Ignore the last patch please, here it is again. I'm new! Just learned about this today from the wonderful jhodgdon at DrupalCon London.

Thanks for your contribution -- Looks good! However, the revised line is longer than 80 characters, so it needs to be rewrapped.

Hi there, here's the patch again.

Setting to Needs Review so that the test bot will test the patch (which in this case means just making sure it's formatted correctly and applies).

One small mistake: "which" always needs a comma before it:

By default,
+ * $user_profile['summary'] is provided which contains data on the user's

I realize that this was from the original, not a result of the patch, but if you could fix it that would be nice!

Also, $user_profile['user_picture'] will fit on the 80-character line wrapping, by my editor's count.

Thanks!

Whenever you upload a patch, please set the status to "needs review", which alerts both human and bots that the patch needs to be tested and reviewed. :)

Anyway, this patch looks fine to me (as long as the bot agrees). 7.x/8.x please...
