Drupal 7 : How to make an editable Content page that displays depending on the User : Part 1

This is a conceptual note making for this task . Part 2 will be the concise instructions on how to do this.


What I want to do is display some editable content to a User .


> Created a Page in Page Manager
> using the path /profile/edit
> in context selected ‘Node Edit Form’
> Set the Node ID - I’ll need to set this programmatically depending on the User that I’m logged in as
> Save
> now in Content when clicking on the ‘cog’ image on the top left of the pane you’ll be able to select from a ‘FORM’ tab that will have all the fields and buttons you’ll need to display the form .

Next up is to write a programmatical solution for changing the Profile content depending on the User and Role I have logged in.
