How to create a user listing page with a tpl.php
Here I create similar page with views: http://cgart.ir/en/members

as you can see there is a list of users and 5 last uploaded image. the page created with views and latest artworks is another views.

to do that:


create first view for list users and in Format select Show:Rendered entity | Settings
create second view and configure CONTEXTUAL FILTERS and add Content: Author uid


edit user-profile.tpl.php and render second view there:

$account = $variables['elements']['#account'];
&lt;?php print views_embed_view('second_view', 'page_1', $account-&gt;uid); ?&gt;
