I made a link on the frontpage so when user log in it remmber him to edit his profile
using the following link
https://xxxxxxxxx/user/editadvanced.php
but when the user click it gives him erro
but when they go to the person icon , then profile then edit
will be in the following form
https://xxxxxxxx/user/editadvanced.php?id=2&course=1&returnto=profile
woks fine,
so how allow them click directly on either link
You won't be able to have a link to directly edit the profile as each user has their own URL to do that.
What you can do is to use the URL like https://your.moodle.site/user/profile.php which will open the user's own profile with the "Edit profile" link visible there.
thanks a lot for your effort,
is there a direct link for Peronal messages on the moodle site?
The plain https://your.moodle.site/message/ should work.
Many gratefull for you and your help.
Can i ask two more questions,
I want when any user forget password to send him reset email
BUT WHEN send them private messgaes on the site not send email to them just the private message?
To prevent site from sending email of PM i played with the mail server setting inside moodle but they will prevent from sending password reset email right??
So how to achieve both?
/user/edit.php will allow any logged in user to edit their own profile.
/user/editadvanced.php is for an admin user, which is why when a normal user clicks on the link, they get an error.
Thanks but unfortunately it worked but later on other users faced the same issue of not able to update there profile unless they go to profile then edit
