Hi, I would like to ask how to add a tab naming ‘blog’ in each user’s profile page,
and it would show posts written by that author(looks like archives/author/username)
I’ve followed the instructions in
while I think I’m struggling in get_template_part( 'directory-to-content-file' );part
what should it be?! Please help. Thanks a lot.

WordPress version 4.1.1, BP 2.2.2.1

Hi @danbp
Tried the code, only the first snippet worked while adding second snippet would result in blank page error.
And then I tried the slightly rewamped version, posts are properly displayed.
However, I would like to have a list of posts with hyperlinks instead of displaying the whole content. Is that possible to make it happen? thanks

@alexterchum – his code kindly provides explicit instructions for doing exactly that.
Did you read them?
Here is what you need:
```
foreach($myposts as $post) {
   setup_postdata( $post );
   echo '<a href="' . get_permalink($post->ID) . '">' . get_the_title($post->ID) . '</a><br/>';			
}
```
