How can I get the member ID of the user on a member profile so that I can show a list of posts by that user. So for example: domain.com/members/cameron/

and then in the page: “ how do I get that author ID? THANKS

That would be `$bp->displayed_user->id`. Don’t forget to declare $bp as a global before (`global $bp;`)

Try `query_posts( ‘author=’ . $bp->displayed_user->id )`

Thanks guys! Here’s my complete code that seems to be working great. I’ve added this to mythemefolder/members/single/member-header.php

<?php global $bp;
query_posts( ‘author=’ . $bp->displayed_user->id );
if (have_posts()) : ?>

Posts:

• <a href="”>

<?php endif;
wp_reset_query();?>

Oops, sorry about that. I’m not seeing instructions anywhere on how to post code, and it won’t let me edit or delete that last post. :S

hi, this could be useful for me aswell, but how can i specify the number of posts to show under the profile. for example if a member posted 60 posts its going to show 60 posts, but how can i change it to show may be 8 posts.

regards
