Is it possible to set the urls of member profiles to

http://www.mydomain.com/members/username (or nicename)

to

http://www.mydomain.com/members/35223 (example user id #)

?

Check this out, for customizing labels and URLs: https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/customizing-labels-messages-and-urls/

You can get the current logged in user id from here: https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/the-bp-global/

check out the `$bp->loggedin_user object` section

I’d be more interested in the displayed_user object, but I’m not sure where to go from there. To globally change the profile slug not just for /members/ but for /members/[username] to /members/[user_id]. Any other suggestions?

[scylderon]

Anyone?

Hi,

I was made a hack for that and it work partially!!

The code need more tests, all feeback’s are welcome.

Add this code to your functions.php

https://gist.github.com/dzmounir/5503865

The problem is from js code who animate #whats-new-options div, he make a div 40px hight.

i find fix, i will fix the plugin by ading this code in js file

        jQuery('#whats-new').off('focus');
        jQuery('#whats-new').on('focus', function(){
            jQuery("#whats-new-options").css('height','auto');
            jQuery("form#whats-new-form textarea").animate({
                height:'50px'
            });
            jQuery("#aw-whats-new-submit").prop("disabled", false);
        });

Regarding the code on github, yes, that did partially fix it. Now all users can be found via their user id # rather than username.

/members/id #/

The only problem I see so far is that the code didnt update the activity feed. If you click a name for a user in the activity feed it is still trying to locate user the old way but the user icons on the newsfeed are correct and try to take you to user profile with their user id #.

So say for example:

James Gill wrote a new post, Gluten

The name James Gill is still trying to render the /members/username/ but not the /members/user id#/

but the rest of the site except activity feed appears to be working right now. only the icons on the activity feed try to render /members/user id#/

[meg@info]

Yes @phatjay,

I think for the old activities, he dont update because the link of members and all content of activity is storeed in databse,

you try to post a new activity and see if the link is /members/id #/

thanks for feedback.

[phatjay]

Ah, nice. Yep, the old activities save in the db. Now I am going to go in the db and just drop the old activities

Hi,
I would like to change the buddypress profile page url ‘/members /user_id’ from ‘/member /usersname’.

https://gist.github.com/dzmounir/5503865

I tried to use above code on fanctions.php.
Profile page url has been changed as ‘/members/user_id’,but it was not displayed.
