Description

The show_user_profile and edit_user_profile actions both describe themselves as: "Fires after the 'About the User'/'About Yourself' settings table", which is somewhat correct, but doesn't really tell the full story.

The table structure on this page is:

  • Personal Options
  • Name
  • Contact Info
  • About Yourself / About the User
  • Account Management (i.e. passwords)
  • Application Passwords (which is not a "table", but is a contained section)
  • show_user_profile / edit_user_profile action
  • Additional Capabilities

I don't have any strong suggestions on wording, but we should be able to clarify where the action fires. Maybe "toward the end of the edit user/profile screen, before Additional Capabilities"?

  • Keywords has-patch added; needs-patch removed

This PR changes document description for show_user_profile & edit_user_profile action hooks on profile screen.
These both hooks fire after application Passwords Section is loaded and not after About Yourself table.

It goes this way About Yourself Table -> Account Management -> Application Password Section -> show_user_profile OR edit_user_profile

Hii @jeremyfelt
I want to contribute to this ticket.
Added a PR for the change in doc comment as

Fires after the 'Application Passwords' section is loaded on the 'Profile' editing screen.

Also added additional comment for edit_user_profile hook as

The action only fires if the current user is editing another user's profile.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions.
Regards.
