   Hello,

   I am trying to make a directory for my website (currently on my localhost) that will allow users to login and edit there own info from the front end.
   I started with the connections plugin for the directory. I have created a custom page template and made a link from the directory display page to my custom page template for editing (if the users last name matches the directory listing).

   I want to be able to use the same code for the plugins edit form on my custom (front end) page template. How can I do that?

   Here is the code:
   

   <?php
   			if (current_user_can('connections_edit_entry'))
   			{
   				$id = esc_attr($_GET['id']);
   				//check_admin_referer('entry_edit_' . $myid);
   
   				//add_meta_box('metabox-name', 'Name', array(&$form, 'metaboxName'), $connections->pageHook->manage, 'normal', 'high');
   
   				$form = new cnFormObjects();
   				$entry = new cnEntry( $connections->retrieve->entry($id) );
   
   				echo '<div id="poststuff" class="metabox-holder has-right-sidebar">';
   					echo '<h2><a name="new"></a>Edit Entry</h2>';
   
   						$attr = array(
   									 'action' => '?page=connections&action=update&id=' . $myid,
   									 'method' => 'post',
   									 'enctype' => 'multipart/form-data',
   									 );
   
   						$form->open($attr);
   
   						$form->tokenField('update_entry');
   						wp_nonce_field('howto-metaboxes-general');
   						wp_nonce_field('closedpostboxes', 'closedpostboxesnonce', false );
   						wp_nonce_field('meta-box-order', 'meta-box-order-nonce', false );
   
   						echo '<input type="hidden" name="action" value="save_howto_metaboxes_general" />';
   
   						echo '<div id="side-info-column" class="inner-sidebar">';
   							do_meta_boxes($connections->pageHook->manage, 'side', $entry);
   						echo '</div>';
   
   						echo '<div id="post-body" class="has-sidebar">';
   							echo '<div id="post-body-content" class="has-sidebar-content">';
   								do_meta_boxes($connections->pageHook->manage, 'normal', $entry);
   							echo '</div>';
   						echo '</div>';
   
   						$form->close();
   
   				echo '</div>';
   				?>
   
   				<script type="text/javascript">
   				//<![CDATA[
   				jQuery(document).ready( function($) {
   					// close postboxes that should be closed
   					$('.if-js-closed').removeClass('if-js-closed').addClass('closed');
   					// postboxes setup
   					postboxes.add_postbox_toggles('<?php echo $connections->pageHook->manage ?>');
   				});
   				//]]>
   				</script>
   
   				<?php
   
   				unset($entry);
   			}

   You can see that "add_meta_box" is not working and causes my page to crash

   ??

   Thanks,
