you have to code for this. It’s no no longer possible as a plugin alone. WHAT I DID: redirected users to another admin panel that has the current theme.

any chance you could post a link? I’d love to see how someone else did it.
I am looking for the same solution.
For a small community website I like people to
register, edit, subscribe, unsubscribe to the newsletter, rsvp to an event (based on an unique id in the link send out in the newsletter) etc but instead of going into the wp-admin I like them to stay within the theme layout.
I don’t know if this is possible but if anyone knows how to achieve this within WP or is interested to develop a plugin that can do this, it would be great.
In case of the plugin I am more than happy to pay for it, as well as giving the result back to the community
I have done this many times one http://www.eurocss.net and other places.
I dont have this as a plugin yet, if you know PHP though i can walk you thru it with some of my userProfile mods.

^ above is the basics of my userProfile Plugin, as i say its done for one site only (not eurocss) its very easy to add extra details and such for when a user registers

^ that is my custom register page for users on one of my sites that is in development, but i also had to hack wp-login.php abit to stop it going to the wp-admin login
Thanks. I will study this and see how far I can take it myself. I am absolutely a php noob but replacing things I am good at:)(at least sometimes)
A couple of questions
1. Does the code Work with wp 2.01?
2. The first part works as/is a plugin
3. The second part is code for a customized page to subscribe/register.
I’ll let you know how far I have been able to take it.
Thanks again.
1) Yes this is written for WP 2.01
2) Yes the first part is done as a WP-Plugin just add <?php pky_userProfile();?> into the page you wish to use it in.
3) That is a page template for signing up users.
@phunky; your code seems to work, I can copy it and paste it in a text file. Saving it as a php file I can upload it to the plugin section and it’s recognized.
Then I created a blank page and made a template which included the <?php pky_userProfile();?> you provided and yes, it shows my current data. Now if I want to click ‘ammend’, it doesn’t load anything, it just refreshed the page. Also, how can I make it to display users instead of always me (admin)? And where can I actually change my data?
Thanks.
Sorry for the second post, I know it’s not done, but I also wanted to know what exactly you had to change in the wp-admin login…
Thanks again.
Woo, okay I’ve been trying to get the amend link working as well. Now I’m no PHP guru but after a lot of hacking and a sudden “eureka” moment I’ve got it partially going.
It’s a simple edit, in userprofile.php (or whatever you’ve named the plugin as) http://www.wilcob.com/Wilco/Pastecode/2647/showpaste.aspx
Change line 28 from:
if ($action == 'edit'){
to:
if ($_GET['action'] == 'edit') {
Just have to figure out how to post the updated information in line 31 of the plugin, it can’t be sent directly to wp-admin/profile-update.php because that requires sending referrers http://codex.wordpress.org/Enable_Sending_Referrers
Help us out Phunky?
