Question Link to Member's Profile

[heyzeus909]

I promise I tried to search before asking for help.

I want to move the link to a member's profile from the header (i.e., http://www.website.com/forum/member.php?9999-myusername) to a link in a NavTab. I'm talking about the "My Profile" link (not a specific profile, just the member that's signed on).

I've tried adding the following into the Target Url box in vBNavTabs:

member.php?u={vb:raw bbuserinfo.userid}
member.php?{session.sessionurl}u=$bbuserinfo[userid]
member.php?$session[sessionurl]$bbuserinfo[userid]
member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$bbuserinfo[userid]
member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]
member.php?$session[sessionurl]u={vb:raw bbuserinfo.userid}

...and I'm certain there were quite a few others.

I realize some of those probably had no chance of working, but I am certainly no coder.

The best I could get was a link that would display: website.com/forum/member.php?u=

If anything gets displayed after the "u=" it's an unparsed variable.


Any help as to what I put into the Target Url box to add a link to a member's profile like what's in the header?

Your over thinking it way to much, in the field Target URL use, profile.php and in the option, Append 'tabid' to URL set that to Yes.

Thank you. But that takes me to the *edit* profile page (which I might consider as an option at some other point!) But I want the link to take me to the profile page...or, in vBulletin speak, MEMBERINFO. Where the profile pic and visitor comments are.

This mist likely isn't an issue with the product itself, so feel free to disregard. I'll try to keep digging for the answer.

heyzeus909 Ahhh ok, gotcha, use this in the field Target URL, member.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}u={userinfo.userid}

Man, thanks a lot. You're a wizard as far as I'm concerned.

Not a problem, glad to help.
