Editing Extended Profiles in Admin Panel

I’m creating a business directory and I’m trying to add members manually from the admin panel, but the fields for the extended profiles that are available to a new user via the registration panel aren’t visible on the admin side. Is there a way to have access to that information from the admin panel, or is it only available to the user upon registration?

Right now only individuals can edit their own profiles. Admin’s cannot edit others’ information through BuddyPress.

or you (admin) could access the databse (I think).

I can always login as the user and edit the profile, or pretend to be the user and sign up the old-fashioned way. Anyway, the problem is solved, even if it is a bit of a workaround to get there.

Future improvement to BuddyPress would be to have this profile-editing feature available to the all-powerful admin!

Thanks!

Has anything changed with this in 1.2? Would be a great feature.

Thanks Gene! That’s a great start for now. Still trying to figure out how best to apply BuddyPress in a corporate intranet environment though. Would be great if we could easily add people to groups without them having to accept etc.
