"Profiles" up to Tiki 1.9.x was a feature used only when you install Tikiwiki. It set up the Tikiwiki according to an existing configuration that was "saved" from another site.

Until version 2.x, this feature is only active during the installation process. You could not go back and pick a different profile unless you re-installed the database, losing all your changes.
