I’m trying to display a frontend form for user profile info editing (not for current user), as per documentation (https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-user-profile/). However, even after setting user_id, this attribute does nothing, it always displays form only with current users’ data.
my code:
$form = '[mb_user_profile_info id="user-data" user_id="' . $user_id . '" submit_button="Submit" confirmation="Your information has been successfully submitted. Thank you."]'; echo do_shortcode( $form );where $user_id has value.
Why is this not working?

After some exploration, I noticed that user_id attribute is not listed in shortcode_atts in MB_User_Profile_Shortcode_Info class. If I add
'user_id' => ''to $args array, and modify$meta_box->set_object_id( get_current_user_id() );to$meta_box->set_object_id( !empty($args['user_id']) ? $args['user_id'] : get_current_user_id() );I can retrieve data from specified user_id. However, form is still submitted for current_user, not specified user.Hi,
In the latest version, we decided to removed the
user_idattribute from the shortcode, to fix a security bug. With that, only the current user can edit his or her profile. Are you trying to let admins edit user profile?Yes, I need to let admins edit user profiles.
