Render Panels Overridden user profile template I have overridden the user profile template using Panels module and want to render this overridden user profile in one of my custom module. 

Actually I wanted to show "About Author", tab besides the "View" tab of article, which when clicked, will show overridden user profile. 

For that I have created menu entry as follows:

function custom_menu() {
   $items = array();

    $items['node/%node/author'] = array(
        'title' =&gt; 'About Author',
        'page callback' =&gt; 'get_node_author',
        'page arguments' =&gt; array(1),
        'access callback' =&gt; TRUE,
        'type' =&gt; MENU_LOCAL_TASK,
    );

    return $items;
}


My function is as follows:

function get_node_author($node = NULL) {
    $account = user_load($node-&gt;uid);
    $account_view = user_view($account);
    return drupal_render($account_view);
}


But it is loading user profile in normal format and not the one which is customized using panels.

Any suggestion how can I achieve this?
I suggest you don't create a menu hook at all.

Just implement your desired layout in a custom panels page instead, and you can control the menu from there.
