Joomla 2.5 - Show Edit Profile Page


I am creating website using Joomla 2.5. For login, I am using default Joomla user management system. After I login sometimes I see the profile page where I have edit profile option. After I browse some other pages and click on Login, I only see option as "Hi User, Logout". How to bring Edit profile option when I click login?

Also in profile page, I see many details like Editor to use and many things. How to hide those details?

Edit 1

In Joomla 3.0 I can see edit profile option. (user id and password as demo)


Solution

  • In the Module Manager in the admin panel, there will be a module called "User Menu" which will be associated with a menu, most likely called the same name. Go to edit the "User Menu" module and in the bottom right, are some options to choose which pages the module appears on.

    Else, if you would like to have the "Edit Profile" link as part of the login module, you will need to go to the following file:

    modules/mod_login/tmpl/default.php
    

    And add in the necessary code there

    Hope this helps
