  <p>All the profiles in my CiviCRM instance work correctly and save data when called from the backend administration (Administer-&gt;Profiles-&gt;PROFILE_NAME-&gt;Settings-&gt;&quot;Use in create/edit mode&quot;) but fail when called directly via the frontend website.</p>
  <p>Using the direct URL (such as <a href="https://domain.org/index.php?option=com_civicrm&amp;task=civicrm/profile/create&amp;gid=16&amp;reset=1" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://domain.org/index.php?option=com_civicrm&amp;task=civicrm/profile/create&amp;gid=16&amp;reset=1</a>) OR using the Administer-&gt;Profiles-&gt;PROFILE_NAME-&gt;more-&gt;&quot;Use - create/edit mode&quot; in the Admin backend, I get two types of behaviors:</p>
  <ol>
  <li>Some profiles do not load at all; I am redirected to the site home page</li>
  <li>Other profiles load and I am able to fill them out and submit them; I get a &quot;Thank you, your information has been saved&quot; with a summary of the entered data.  BUT that data is NOT saved or visible in the CiviCRM backend.</li>
  </ol>
  <p>The most frustrating thing is that there are NO ERRORS.  I don't seem to be able to generate any backtraces or error messages in the Civi logs, PHP logs, Javascript consoles, or CMS debugging. And logging does seem to be working, I do have data showing up in the Civi and web site access logs, just no errors relating to the failed profile submissions.</p>
  <p>Very grateful for any ideas how to proceed.</p>

Comments.Text: Ah, ONE profile does fail to load with the "Error The requested profile (gid=20) is inactive or does not exist." -- a new profile I created just for testing purposes.  But this error only appears in the frontend, I do not see it in the Civi logs.  And it definitely exists and is active.  Beyond frustrating.

  I think this is a follow-on issue to my previous question still unsolved ([creation of new contact at user registration fails: The requested Profile is disabled OR it is not configured](https://civicrm.stackexchange.com/questions/45961/creation-of-new-contact-at-user-registration-fails-the-requested-profile-is-dis/45978?noredirect=1#comment54365_45978)) but I think it qualifies as a different problem.
  
  All the profiles in my CiviCRM instance work correctly and save data when called from the backend administration (Administer->Profiles->PROFILE\_NAME->Settings->"Use in create/edit mode") but fail when called directly via the frontend website.
  
  Using the direct URL (such as <https://domain.org/index.php?option=com_civicrm&task=civicrm/profile/create&gid=16&reset=1>) OR using the Administer->Profiles->PROFILE\_NAME->more->"Use - create/edit mode" in the Admin backend, I get two types of behaviors:
  
  1. Some profiles do not load at all; I am redirected to the site home page
  2. Other profiles load and I am able to fill them out and submit them; I get a "Thank you, your information has been saved" with a summary of the entered data. BUT that data is NOT saved or visible in the CiviCRM backend.
  
  The most frustrating thing is that there are NO ERRORS. I don't seem to be able to generate any backtraces or error messages in the Civi logs, PHP logs, Javascript consoles, or CMS debugging. And logging does seem to be working, I do have data showing up in the Civi and web site access logs, just no errors relating to the failed profile submissions.
  
  Very grateful for any ideas how to proceed.
