Linking to "edit profile" directly from logged-in.php

   The title says it. I'd like to have a link from the "logged-in.php" menu directly to the page where I can edit my profile (currently I first need to see the profile page and then edit from there).

   Essentially I need a function like bb_profile_link(); that returns the link to edit profile page.

   Thanks.

   You can put this at proper place in your logged-in.php
   

   <?php
   echo '(<a href="' . get_profile_tab_link(0, 'edit') . '">edit</a>)';
   ?>

   Thanks, but if I use this on the front page I get a user not found error. It does work if I use it from the profile page itself.

   BTW, I've modified the standard theme to put show this in a sidebar. That is, I call <?php login_form(); ?> from the sidebar.

   Sorry, my mistake
   

   <?php
   echo '(<a href="' . get_profile_tab_link(bb_get_current_user_info('id'), 'edit') . '">edit</a>)';
   ?>

   login_form() uses logged-in.php of current active theme if current user is logged in.
