From Codex: Plugin API – Action Reference – profile_update:
Note: This hook is not used on user edit/profile pages. To hook into the admin’s user edit pages, use the hook edit_user_profile_update which is located in
/wp-includes/user-edit.phpinstead.
From Codex: Plugin API – Action Reference – edit_user_profile_update:
This hook only triggers when a user is viewing another user’s profile page (not their own). If you want to apply your hook to ALL profile pages (including the current user) then you also need to use the personal_options_update hook.
