What is the url to use for Edit Profile?

Hi All,

I want to add an Edit Profile button under My Profile main menu. It should take members to their profile edit page.

What must the url look like?

Regards,

yoursiteaddresshere/pedit.php

I tried that. Goes to Profile Edit but says:

Profile not specified

Something is missing

You need to add the profile's ID at the end. As to how you'd go about doing that, I'm not sure.

Yes, that I know but the url must call the profile edit page of logged in user. Is there a way to find out what the Edit button url is of the General info block?

pedit.php?ID={memberID}

Your the man Deano. Haven't forgotten you by the way. It's coming.

Excellent, thanks! And what about the URL for a member's profile page? http://www.yoursite.com/membername ...is there something similar to ?ID={memberID} for this?

Instead of telling you what it is, i will tell you how to find out what it is.

What you're asking is identical to the View Profile submenu item under the Profile main menu item. So just look there.

Well yes, obviously I've searched around our site, except we don't have that option as we have a completely different menu structure (and items). The profile icon points to the user's profile, but the URL shows the actual profile address not a wildcard like ?ID={memberID} etc. The Navigation Menu in the Menu Builder reveals the URL for that icon is "{memberLink}|{memberNick}|profile.php?ID={memberID}" but placing it after 'yoursite.com' results in 'Profile not found'. Any more help? It is for a small piece of text on our site aboute privacy, but a direct link would be easier than instructing users to click on the profile icon then xyz.

Have you tried <a href="profile.php?ID={memberID}">Profile</a> (This must go in a php block)

You can leave out yoursite.com

That's the key - a PHP block, thanks a lot, I'll give that a try. At the moment the link is from an HTML block.

Thats the problem. I was assumong you were tring to use this on a menu item as hd4real was.

Many of those keys do not work everwhere. But i did not know you were not using this in a menu item.
