Hi irishwill2008,
The only options at the moment are...
Via the user interface:
Network > WLAN0 > Wi-Fi stored profiles - SHOW > ADD a new static profile or DELETE an existing profile and ADD a new one (as you say above, no edit feature)
Via SSH:
Examples of profiles are here: /etc/netctl/examples
Profiles need to be created in this directory: /etc/netctl
Profile file name is: <your network sysid>
To activate a new profile, you must disconnect and reconnect to the network, easiest and safest way is to reboot.
Not sure if it is OK or a problem to edit the WiFi profile on the fly? Maybe it was set up the way for a reason.

Hi janui,

This modify option seems to be not connected to anything specificly, there is post options in the network_ctl file for "$_POST['nic']" but this seems to be only for adding, not editing... I think they devs left this option out (Which is why i guess they left the elseif knowing it will never enter seeing as the first If is the same statement so it would enter first if rather then elseif).

I could create my own but i just thought to save myself time it could be easier if this was already included but a small bug that could of been rectified! No worries, i already created pass scripts to automatically setup lan for me to a static ip so i can easily use this and have it edit the wlan profiles instead of eth0.

Thanks!

Again, if someone does come across something or even the DEVs can assist.. If of course this is found to be a bug then please let me know! Saves me time wasting xD

Cheers again 8-)
