Title: Profile Form not working correctly Last modified: July 13, 2021 --- # Profile Form not working correctly * Resolved [doriantaylor](https://wordpress.org/support/users/doriantaylor/) * (@doriantaylor) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/profile-form-not-working-correctly/) * Hi everybody. * I am very desparate, so any help is so so so welcome. I have no idea, what to do… * I have an issue with the Profile Form of UM. I designed a nice profile form and put the shortcode on the Account-Page. I looked just fine but Useres weren’t able to update their data. After hours and hours of google, i found out: The Pofile Form only works on the User-Page, so i switched the pages. Now, the Profile- Form-Shortcode is embedded in the User-Page. * Unfortunately, the formally very nice looking Profile-Form does not show up any more. I only can see the content of the filled in fields – nothing else. Not even the Button to update the Data. When is switch the pages again, its there again. So there must be some problem with the Form and the User-Page, i guess… * What am i doing wrong? * THX for your response!

On the first, you can see, how the form should look like (and looks like, everywhere except for the User-Page): [https://imgur.com/V7EOsX4](https://imgur.com/V7EOsX4) * On the second, you can see, how it looks like when I implement the Shortscode on the User-Page: [https://imgur.com/AO6l6fl](https://imgur.com/AO6l6fl) * Best regards, Johannes * Plugin Contributor [Champ Camba](https://wordpress.org/support/users/champsupertramp/) * (@champsupertramp) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/profile-form-not-working-correctly/#post-14659495) * Hi [@doriantaylor](https://wordpress.org/support/users/doriantaylor/) * You can only use the Profile shortcode on the User page. If you need to add custom fields to the Account form, you will need to use UM hooks to customize it. * Regards, * Thread Starter [doriantaylor](https://wordpress.org/support/users/doriantaylor/) * (@doriantaylor) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/profile-form-not-working-correctly/#post-14659546) * Hi [@champsupertramp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/champsupertramp/). * The second screenshot shows, how the Profile-Form Looks like on the User-Page. * The User should edit their data with this Form…is‘nt That how the Form schould be used? * Regards, Johannes * Plugin Contributor [Champ Camba](https://wordpress.org/support/users/champsupertramp/) * (@champsupertramp) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/profile-form-not-working-correctly/#post-14659634) * Hi, * This may be because of a plugin/theme conflict.
