    Description

      After updating to Moodle 3.4, an error occurs when the user attempts to change his email address in the profile settings. After specifying a new e-mail address, a confirmation e-mail comes to it, but by going through the link, the "Call to undefined function profile_user_record ()" error occurs and the email address does not change. (Authorization of users occurs on ldaps)
