Hi,
Glad you have the forums working. The ##profile_link## feature is working as intended as it is not designed to be used outside of the menu architecture. I do not have a solution for you immediately and this will take custom PHP code to implement such a function.
You will need to contact a developer about building a solution that suits your custom needs. If you wish you may also contact one of our developers who will be happy to discuss your needs. You can do so by emailing dev@seventhqueen.com with as much information about your custom request as possible.
