How do I make a profile page so I can put it in the menu?

[cameronvegas]

There is no profile page from the demo that I can add to the menu.  Suggestions?

 

Also, in wordpress, usually I’d navigate to the page and then click “edit page”.  The toolbar disappears when I view my site even while I’m logged in despite checking the box to the contrary.

If I understand your first question, you can add menu links to a user profile by adding a custom link and using the ##profile_link## variable.

“With BuddyPress/bbPress installed you can add a link to profile using ##profile_link## in the URL input from Custom Links section bellow. Example: ##profile_link##/messages”

Hmmm. It appears to be working fine on my site. Do you have any plugins that would override this?

Fantastic! Thank you.

Alternatively, for anybody else who may encounter this same question. I don’t have bbpress installed so I inserted this into my functions.php file:

COPY CODE

 function redirect2profile(){
	include_once( ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/plugin.php' );
	if($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] == '/profile/' && is_plugin_active('buddypress/bp-loader.php') && is_user_logged_in()){
		global $current_user;
		wp_redirect( get_bloginfo('url') . '/members/'. $current_user->user_login . '/profile/'); 
		exit();
	}
 }
add_action('init', 'redirect2profile');
