    Hi all,

    Any help greatly appreciated.

    I need to allow logged in users to see their inbox in my site moovrmatch.co.uk. It’s available at moovrmatch.co.uk/members/<user name> but I can’t see how to add this to a page. I’d thought I’d find a shortcode / attribute to include within the ‘members’ page but can’t find one.

    I’ve installed WordPress 4.9.8, Buddypress 4.0.0 and using the Memberlite theme.

    Thanks in advance,

    Richard.

    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.

    Could you do this with https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-profile-shortcodes-extra/ ?

    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
