Drupal 7, I want to load the user profile form into a module page. I have a custom field also that the user can configure, let's call this field "blah". It's a implemented as a dropdown field.
When I load the form using the following code everything is fine apart from the blah field which does not populate its user stored data.
form_load_include($form_state, 'inc', 'user', 'user.pages');
global $user;
$output .= drupal_render((drupal_get_form('user_profile_form', $user)));
Does anyone know how I would get the blah variable/value/user data into this rendered form? It is populated if I go to the standard user profile editing page at http://example.com/user/2/edit.
