How to manage mysql tables relationships with date thing

Question

I have this scenario

User can have many profiles per year and i also want to keep history as well

I have following tables

1. User
2. Profile

Now i am confused should i make separate table for year.

I am confused to make separate profile per year.

I mean when the new year comes then i would want to copy the profile to new profile so that they can edit the new profile but previous year profile will remain uneditable

Answer 1

Just have one table for profiles. Each profile should have a creation date. Then you can sort by date and make the newest profile editable, and treat the older ones as archives.
