Hello buddypress.

Im trying to figure out how i can add links to the sidebar under the users name image and “logout button”. I understand how to make conditional(if user is logged in ect..) php but i am having some trouble with the buddypress loop.

What i would like to add are some links that do the following:
View profile – Link to the user’s profile
Edit profile – takes user to his/her edit profile page
Change Picture – Link to change profile picture
My Favorites – Takes users to activities that they have favorited
…and possibly more.

website – http://www.skateage.com

Please help me understand the loop so that i can make links to these functions. I have read through all of the buddypress documentation on buddypress dot org but any external doc/tutorials would be awesome.

Thanks in advance!

Not really in the forums-loop, more if you want to add it under the widget, go into your sidebar.php.

These $bp-global strings are always available for use, in your case here: http://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/the-bp-global/

so where you want the links to appear (view profile, etc) , you will need to add the strings `$bp->loggedin_user->domain`

So:

`<a href="/profile/edit”>Edit Your Profile`
