How to redirect Home link to Profile Page

Hi

I’m trying to change the Home page links in the themes header.php so that for Logged in users it links to the User’s Profile page (rather than the domain homepage).

I came up with this:

<?php if ( is_user_logged_in() ) : ?>

<li<?php if ( bp_is_page( BP_MEMBERS_SLUG ) ) {?> class=”selected”<?php } ?>>loggedin_user->domain

?>” title=”<?php _e( ‘Home’, ‘buddypress’ ) ?>”><?php _e( ‘Home’, ‘buddypress’ ) ?>

<?php else : ?>

Hoping $bp->loggedin_user->domain would do the job but it only works when we are on a users page.

Does anyone know the right code to use?

Thanks a lot!

Try

href="<?php echo bp_core_get_userurl(get_current_user_id()) ?>"

Good idea!

As an alternative approach, how can I include some profile page content in the homepage? I’d probably have to use that is_user_logged_in() code, right?

I’ll look into that later and report back…

I have the “Theme My Login” plugin installed, obviously when a user clicks on the “profile” link it goes to wp-admin/profile.php page instead of /members/[username]/profile. There are options to put a new URL, and I tried to copy John’s but it’s not workin, any ideas?

My site is momchatter.com

Where do you put this, please? – I would like my home page to default to the user profile if they are logged on, or a ‘sign up here’ page if they aren’t seems like the right idea, but I’m unclear on the details

How do I get the Home page link to point to my site address instead of the wordpress address? I reset my wordpress address and site address on Settings>General. I think I have a very simple question for someone with a little experience.
