Hi all,

I am new to BP – I want to create a new menu item in WordPress menu dialogue. I cannot figure out how to create a link to the a user’s profile page. Example the link “My Home” should go to the unique page of the member….

I want to add this the link to buddypress with out adding custom code. Is this not possible?

@peternemser no, because it is not in the default theme.

If you prefer, create a child theme of bp-default theme https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/, then copy the header.php of the bp-default theme into your child theme folder, then add this in `

`
`
<li class=”selected”>
<a href="” title=””>

`

The benefit of the “custom code” in functions.php is that you don’t have to copy over the header.php to your child theme folder.
