Hi,  
I’m new to Mautic. I want to know if there is any possibility of giving a contact (not a user) the ability of editing its contact information (name, address, etc). I’m using Mautic with Wordpress, so any solution in that way would also be valid.

Thanks,  
alan

**Your software**  
My Mautic version is: 2.16  
My PHP version is: 7.3

You can create a preference center landing page:

[https://docs.mautic.org/en/contacts/preference-center/customize-preference-center](https://docs.mautic.org/en/contacts/preference-center/customize-preference-center)

and on it, use the tokens to show the contact data and edit it:

Great, PaulR! Thank you so much!

I reached to create the landing page, a insert some contact fields using the `{contactfield=firstname}` and `{contactfield=lastname}` fields, for example.

I’ve sent a test email with the landing page link , using the `{pagelink=1}` tag.

However, the resulting link [1] is resulting in a 404 page not found.

I’m using Apache2, and all other URLs are working as expected, including the Landing Page preview[2]. I’m getting no message at Apache’s error log.

And ideias?

Thanks @huuich,

However, the link remains the same, and thus, still not found.

Other ideas?

It’s strange, what’s your mautic version? I’m using v2.16.2, it’s ok!

Can you describe step by step what you’ve done because I can’t remake your error? Did you publish your Landing Page [https://mautic.eita.coop.br/page/preview/1](https://mautic.eita.coop.br/page/preview/1) or just preview? If just preview not publish I think mautic can not push to email!
