  Using CiviCRM 4.6.9 and Drupal.
  
  We need to have a form that allows users to update their own contact data. While we could do this by creating a specific profile, it seems this is already supported via a connector to Drupal with the form exposed here:
  
  /user/1/edit/name\_and\_address
  
  This works for administrators, but for regular authenticated users the fields don't show up - although there is a "Save" button down at the bottom.
  
  What do we need to do to enable this for regular authenticated users?
  
  **Tags:** contacts, user-account

  You probably do, but just double checking, do you have the Profile marked in its Civi settings as 'Drupal User Registration' and 'View/Edit Drupal User Account'?
