Add your submit handler to the submit button, rather than the entire form.

My code now looks like this:

	$form = drupal_build_form($form_id, $form_state);
	$form['#action'] = '/user/selectrole/individual?destination=user/selectrole/getstarted';

	$form['#submit'][] = "arkitheme_user_add_role_individual";
	$form['actions']['submit']['#submit'][] = "arkitheme_user_add_role_individual";
	$form['submit']['#submit'][] = "arkitheme_user_add_role_individual";

	return $form;

Still not working.

Sorry, I didn't look too closely at your original code the first time. The problem here is that you are trying to add your submit handler in the wrong place. Submit handlers need to be added in hook_form_alter().

First, in your page callback, you can call drupal_get_form()

function arkitheme_user_select_role_individual()
{
  global $user;

  return drupal_get_form('user_profile_form', $user);
}

This will generate the user_profile_form, passing it the global $user object, meaning the form shown will always be the profile form for the current user.

Next, you add your additional code in hook_form_alter:

function arkitheme_form_alter(&$form, &$form_state, $form_id)
{
  if($form_id == 'user_profile_form')
  {
    $form = drupal_build_form($form_id, $form_state);
    $form['actions']['submit']['#submit'][] = "arkitheme_user_add_role_individual";
  }
}

This will add your submit handler to the user_profile_form. If you need to add conditions as to when to add your submit handler, you will want to do it here.

Many thanks.
It works now.
All code and logic seems correct and reasonable, But not working, I called it a "drupal trap". It is what always driving me crazy!

Hi! I'm interested in this solution, but when I apply it the hook_form_alter is called in a loop, as it looks that drupal_build_form fires the hook again.

If I don't us the call to drupal_build_form, then my submit action is not modified.

I know it is a lot of time since this question resolution, but any help will be really appreciated.
