First of all thank you for CouchCMS, it is genuinely saving my ass right now. So I've created a HTML static webpage for a user profile page (including profile pic, bio, description, comment section etc), but I'd like each user to be able to edit their own page and visit others. I don't even know where to start here so if someone could point me in the right direction that'd be great

to elaborate, I've made the page clonable and made the areas editable, however the only way to edit them is via the admin panel, so users cannot actually edit them

The learning curve is a bit steep here, but definitely manageable in foreseeable time. If you need have this done yesterday, then it is a problem

Thanks for the reply. I'm cutting it fine for sure but I've got a couple weeks, just doing my best . Just to make sure I'm not barking up the wrong tree; I define the additional fields in the users/index.php file, add the input on users/profile.php and then I can use 'show' cms tags on my template to display the profile page?

to follow on (again), I have done all this but when I press the 'browse' button to upload a profile picture, nothing happens. As a result I get the error message


User Type: Required field cannot be left empty
Smart Package Active: Required field cannot be left empty
Premium Package Active: Required field cannot be left empty


Sorry for the stupid questions, and thanks again for all your help.

If the fields are not available (always check by placing <cms:dump /> or <cms:dump_all />) then fetch them with <cms:pages> tag.

'Required' fields should not be left empty on any /even minor/ page edit.

Sorry you've lost me, you're dealing with a bit of a dumbass here. Where do I place those tags? Also any idea why the 'browse' button isn't working?

UPDATE: I fixed the earlier problem but am now getting the error message "Tag "form" - page_id required" when I go to edit profile. I think my earlier mistakes ruined everything so I think I'll just have to start over. Days of work down the drain! Thanks for your help.
