# User cannot edit own profile

 * When logged in as an admin user, I cannot edit the base profile of that user 
   unless I log out and log back in as a different admin. Then I can see and edit
   the profile of the other admin user but still not the one I’m logged in as.
 * I thought it was a bio plug in I’d added but it still did it after deactivating.
 * When I changed to the Twenty Twelve theme it stopped happening and I can see 
   and edit my own admin user profile.
 * Any ideas how to fix this as I do like the look of this theme.
