    I’m interested in adding an “edit my profile” link to the author page of my site–but I only want it visible when a user navigates to their own author page. Is this possible?

  • Place this code in the author template, preferably in the child theme:

    <?php
$id = get_the_author_meta('ID');
$logged_in = get_current_user_id();
if($logged_in == $id) {
	echo "<a href=\"".admin_url()."profile.php"."\">Edit your profile</a>";
}
?>

    Works perfectly!
