# customizing wp-admin/profile.php

 * Hi, all. I have a problem with my WordPress [http://www.hiphopdocs.com](http://www.hiphopdocs.com).
   I’d like users to be able to comment only when they are logged in. Everybody 
   has to be able to register. And I did this with the admin panel.
 * The problem is that wp-admin/profile.php is a public file for everybody registered,
   and i’m ok with this, but i don’t want it to look like the admin panel. I’d like
   this page to look like like other pages of the site, to use the header, footer,
   sidebar and the whole template of the site.
 * How can i do this ? Plus, i’d like to see the original wp-admin/profile.php when
   i browse my admin panel.
 * Can you please help me ? Thanks!
 * P.S. I dont want registered users except admins and contributors to be able to
   see the dashboard. Just a normal page where they have a form for editing profiles.
