Create a link with the user’s username in it

Is there a way for me to create a link on one of my “posts” from the front end that has a link to a part of my site that requires the reader’s uisername’s link in it?

So I want to say for example “Please click here to go back to your profile” on my page’s content.
I want it to point to “www.domain.com/username”. not my username, but the reader’s username.

Is there a way to do it using a combination of and get_currentuserinfo(); ?

Of the top of my head, start by getting the id of the user that’s browsing:

`bp_loggedin_user_id()`

Try `echo bp_core_get_userlink( bp_loggedin_user_id() );` like Buddypress’s standard login form uses in the sidebar.
