user_build

Versions
7
user_build($account, $build_mode = 'full')

Generate an array for rendering the given user.

When viewing a user profile, the $page array contains:

  • $page['content']['Profile Category']: Profile categories keyed by their human-readable names.
  • $page['content']['Profile Category']['profile_machine_name']: Profile fields keyed by their machine-readable names.
  • $page['content']['user_picture']: User's rendered picture.
  • $page['content']['summary']: Contains the default "History" profile data for a user.
  • $page['content']['#account']: The user account of the profile being viewed.

To theme user profiles, copy modules/user/user-profile.tpl.php to your theme directory, and edit it as instructed in that file's comments.

Parameters

$account A user object.

$build_mode Build mode, e.g. 'full'.

Return value

An array as expected by drupal_render().

Code

modules/user/user.module, line 2139

<?php
function user_build($account, $build_mode = 'full') {
  // Retrieve all profile fields and attach to $account->content.
  user_build_content($account, $build_mode);

  $build = $account->content;
  // We don't need duplicate rendering info in account->content.
  unset($account->content);

  $build += array(
    '#theme' => 'user_profile',
    '#account' => $account,
    '#build_mode' => $build_mode,
  );

  // Allow modules to modify the structured user.
  drupal_alter('user_build', $build);

  return $build;
}
?>
