I wrote a custom CB plugin years ago that uses a bunch of the event handlers that were defined in the API documentation back in 2012. Among them are events such as onBeforeUserUpdate and onAfterUserUpdate. These have always had the same affect whether editing a user profile from the front end or back end of the site. This was working back in June, which was the last time I worked on the code. I am not sure when it happened, but my plugin no longer does what it's supposed to do when editing profile data from the site back end. I am of the belief that the events are no longer triggering when updating a profile in the back end. Did the rules change? Are there now separate events for back end operations?
You'll have to debug your own code for as to why it's not working.

This code has been working for over a decade, a testament to the stability of the CB framework. It just stopped working recently with no changes to it having been made. Again, it works as it should when modifying user profiles from the site front end, but not from the back end. The same triggers are supposed to work for both, right?

No, the backend trigger is different from frontend. The backend trigger is onAfterUpdateUser while frontend is onAfterUserUpdate. They have the same 3 variables though so there's no concern with pointing both triggers to same function if needed.

Well, that's helpful but I believe the first I've heard of it. Maybe I'm just lucky it's been working all these years. Thanks a bunch!
EDIT: Well, now this is embarrassing... Just looked 6 revisions back and sure enough, I deleted those event registrations. I have no idea why. All is right in the world again.
