Change Profile URL to WP Default Author URL

Hi there, when users click on the authors name in a post it takes them to their buddy press profile. I’d like to change that so it uses the default authors url in WordPress. Also I want to add a link to the buddypress user profile in the WordPress menu for my site.

Any ideas?

Thanks for your help 🙂

Sure, you can add a filter on the bp_get_member_permalink hook and do whatever you wish. The BP member profile is much richer than the the authors page, though–if you’re not using the member profile fully, are you sure you need BuddyPress for your site?

For the second question, use the shortcut link: https://mysite.org/members/me which will redirect users to their profile.

Best,
