I want to add an “edit” button right next to the “log out” button, but i’m not sure what calls this the page. I checked the logged-in.php and found this:

<?php printf(__(‘Welcome, %1$s’), bb_get_profile_link(bb_get_current_user_info( ‘name’ )));?>

That generates “Welcome, username”

What code generates the “edit” button?

I checked the profile.php and I found that this code outputs an EDIT button:

<?php if (bb_current_user_can( ‘edit_user’, $user->ID )) : ?>

<?php printf(__(‘You may edit this information.’), esc_attr( get_profile_tab_link( $user_id, ‘edit’ ) ) ); ?>

<?php endif; ?>

The downpart of this code is, the output is only visible when you actually are on the profile page. I need something like this which is visible no matter which you page you are.

Ideas?

put it in the header

You mean to make it show on every page?

This is the code located in logged-in.php that’s being called:

<p id=”inloggen”>

• <?php printf(__(‘Fawaka, %1$s’), bb_get_profile_link(bb_get_current_user_info( ‘name’ )));?>
• <?php bb_admin_link( ‘before= ‘ );?>
• <?php bb_logout_link(); ?>

</p>

This is what I have in my header.php

<div id=”inloggen”>

<?php if ( !in_array( bb_get_location(), array( ‘login-page’, ‘register-page’ ) ) ) login_form(); ?>

<?php if ( bb_is_profile() ) ; ?>

</div>

However, if you are on the frontpage (/index.php) or any other page, apart from profile.php

you don’t see the “edit” link.

Got?
