Hard code link in BP Admin Bar?

I want to take the “Blogs” link from the My Account menu and serve it up as its own item in the BP Admin bar, called something different (My Sites).

I have already commented out the links I want to hide from the admin bar in bp-core-adminbar.php (My Blogs, Visit), so I know where the code needs to go. But can someone tell me how to to format it? I don’t think adding a <li> with a link is the answer…

Have also looked at this thread but I’m still lost.

Thanks!

UPDATE: I used the plugin: here to add a link to my admin bar, and it works.

2nd question – How do I dynamically include the logged in user’s username in the URL that I’m adding?

For example, I am adding the link to /members/[USERNAME]/blogs/, where USERNAME is the logged in user’s username. I have tried inserting the php calls for wp_get_current_user(); , echo $current_user; and echo $username; , but none work.

hi kate,

maybe you try this one: use a sidebar widget which allows you to input php .. and then insert the link and try ” echo bp_loggedin_user_domain() “

i hope that can help you a little.

cheers
