Your question is unclear.
You want a link to the inbox?
Or you want to show the inbox outside of a profile ?
The latter should not be attempted unless you are an experienced WP / BP developer.
Thanks Venutius, I’ll take a look at shortcodes. Just reading the link one question I do have is can I enable to user id attribute to dynamically select the logged in user?
@Shanebp: I need to present the logged in user with their inbox. Effectively just showing the Buddypress default members page for that user. All I’ve found available is a default URL of site/members/user. I need this to operate dynamically, detecting the logged in user and revealing their specific inbox. I then want to add this to a page. The end result is that a logged in user can access their inbox from a menu option.
You can either state a specific user_id or it will user the user_id of the user viewing that page.
I would find this incredibly useful as well as I am trying to integrate the buddypress personal messaging system in to a site I am working with.
I want to be able to replicate the contents of this div
<div id=”item-body” class=”item-body”>
(when “Messages” is selected on the “Members” Page)
I am very new to php/wp dev so struggling a little
Can you help?
That sounds like it would need custom development to do that
