bb_get_profile_link(bb_get_current_user_info( ‘id’ ))

Is there any way to get the URL to the logged in user’s profile without all that “view your profile” junk it tacks onto the above call?

I am trying to customize my logged-in.php into something like:

<ul>

<li>Profile</li>

<li>Edit</li>

<li>PM</li>

<li>Favorites</li>

<li>Logout</li>

</ul>

Except I can never get it to pump out clean URLs

function bb_get_admin_link( $args = '' ) {

if ( !bb_current_user_can( 'moderate' ) )

return;

if ( $args && is_string($args) && false === strpos($args, '=') )

$args = array( 'text' => $args );



$defaults = array('text' => __('Admin'), 'before' => '', 'after' => '');

$args = wp_parse_args( $args, $defaults );

extract($args, EXTR_SKIP);



$uri = esc_attr( bb_get_uri('bb-admin/', null, BB_URI_CONTEXT_A_HREF + BB_URI_CONTEXT_BB_ADMIN) );



return apply_filters( 'bb_get_admin_link', $before . '<a href="' . $uri . '">' . $text . '</a>' . $after, $args );

}

So if you don’t mind bypassing the moderation ability check, just use

esc_attr( bb_get_uri('bb-admin/', null, BB_URI_CONTEXT_A_HREF + BB_URI_CONTEXT_BB_ADMIN) );

or

bb_get_uri('bb-admin/', null, BB_URI_CONTEXT_A_HREF + BB_URI_CONTEXT_BB_ADMIN);

depending if you’ll be escaping the URL later.

To keep the check, use if ( bb_current_user_can( 'moderate' ) )

I was going to hide it behind tags:

<?php if ( bb_is_user_logged_in() ) : ?>

What I wanted to do was to replace the standard:

<?php if ( is_bb_profile() ) profile_menu(); ?>

With other things including links for the “Your Profile”, “Edit (your) Profile”, PM Inbox, Memberslist, “Logout” etc.

Basically I am trying tp bypass the profile_menu() non-global status along the lines of this thread that I wasn’t able to work:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/profile_menu-doesnt-work-on-all-pages

I was trying to force the URL and trying to force such a global profile menu using:

<?php echo bb_option('uri'); ?>/profile/<?php echo bb_get_current_user_info( ' name ' ); ?>

But that is pretty ghetto and as you can see it outputs the display name not the username so thus can’t be used for getting a link to the user’s profile…

Use this:

bb_get_profile_link(‘id=’.strval(bb_get_current_user_info( ‘id’ )).’&text=YOUR_TEXT_HERE&before=BEFORE_THE_LINK&after=AFTER_THE_LINK’);

You can view the function here:

Or you can just call get_user_profile_link(); function to get the simple link.

If the user is logged in, it will automatically get the user id.

Function can be found here –
