Owner Profile
Overview
The user profile object for the owner of the current site is accessed using the $OWNER_PROFILE variable. This object contains information about the user, methods to return avatar photos for the user and other relevant user methods. For instance, if a user is browsing a friend’s profile page then $OWNER_PROFILE would represent that friend’s profile. The object has the same properties and methods available as the VIEWER_PROFILE object (which represents the currently logged in user)
