# Select Multiple User

 * I would love to have a multiselect or select2 field in the backend profile, where
   I can select other users; not just CPTs. To create a connection between users.
   Is this possible with existing fields? Else I would love this feature.
 * For frontend I could achieve this with a custom shortcode, but I want to avoid
   building javascripts to append the user list.

 * Hello [@websplash](https://wordpress.org/support/users/websplash/),
 * If I understood correctly, you would like to have a field where you can select
   any one of your users to be able to view/edit their profile. Is this correct?
 * If so, you can do so while visiting your page with the Profile Builder Edit Profile
   Form short code on it as an administrator. You can read more about this on our
   documentation page here: [https://www.cozmoslabs.com/docs/profile-builder/shortcodes/#Edit_user_profile_in_Front_End_as_Admin](https://www.cozmoslabs.com/docs/profile-builder/shortcodes/#Edit_user_profile_in_Front_End_as_Admin)
 * This however is on the front-end page. There is no way of adding any fields to
   the page at WordPress Dashboard -> Users -> All users section.

 * Thanks for the response. Yes I would need it in the backend, similar as acf does
   this with the user-id connection. Would be great to have this in the future.
