Original link to cb-user profile with their id number

8 years 1 day ago #287383 by innovationdenmark
In an older version of Joomla I was able to link to the original URL of a cb-user that contained the user ID. The purpose is that I want to include a link in general content to open a users profile. This link should still work even if the user changes the user name. I do not remember what the path was. Is there a path that can be used now where I only need to place the user id and then the link will get to the right profile?

Thank you

If where you need this has content.prepare support you can install CB Content Bot and substitute in the profile URL as follows.

[cb:url location="profile_view" user="USER_ID_HERE" /]

Otherwise the profile URL is as follows.

index.php?option=com_comprofiler&view=userprofile&user=USER_ID_HERE
