New, custom navbar

Okay, so I’m creating a new nav menu that integrates the adminbar and the navigation links. So, I need to re arrange the slugs from:

http://example.com/members/USERNAME/XXX

where XXX is Wire, Activity, Blogs, ect… and USERNAME is the username of the user. To:

http://example.com/members/XXX/USERNAME

or

http://example.com/XXX/USERNAME

Anyone know if this is possible and how I would do this?

I also need some PHP code:

Is there a specific PHP action to call the user’s username? For example, how would I have a link like:

<a href="<?php ' . site_url() . '/members/XXX/' . [PHP CODE TO GET USERNAME] . ' php?> ">LINK NAME</A>

Did I make any errors? Anaways, I could use some help.

Thanks.

There is likely a better way to do this but this should fetch the username:

<?php global $current_user; if ( isset($current_user) ) { echo $current_user->user_login; } ?>

Not sure why there’s a need to re-arrange the URL structure but hopefully that code helps.

Thanks, and the URL structure needs to be re-arranged to suit the needs of the navigation system I’m designing.
