I'm looking for the generic link to "My Page".  Currently, it looks like this:  http://creators.ning.com/profile/ClarkP

You note it has my name in the URL.  So that's not generic.  That link will only work for me and take people to my page.

But every other page link IS generic.  The link is the same for every member.  For example, the link to my discussions is:
http://creators.ning.com/forum/topic/listForContributor

It's generic.  That same link will work for every member who is logged in and take them to THEIR discussions.

The link to my photos is:
http://creators.ning.com/photo/photo/listForContributor

The link to my groups is:
http://creators.ning.com/groups/group/listForContributor

So does anyone know a generic link to "My Page" that will be the same link for every member and NOT have their name in the URL?

Thx!

Hi!

You could use this link:

<a class="jQH_MyPage">My Page</a>

Then in custom code box:

<script type="text/javascript">

x$('a.jQH_MyPage').attr('href', ning.CurrentProfile.profileUrl);

</script>

Best wishes!

Great cue!
Will be using this =)

Hmmm... that would work beautifully in situations where I can write out the HTML.  The purpose I am looking to use it for is on a toolbar.  As far as I can see, I need to enter a straight URL and not an anchor class.  No tags, just a URL.

Can this be made to work for that situation?

Thanks TJ!

http://creators.ning.com/profiles


or just this: 

/profiles

Hi Clark,

You can use /profiles

That will forward any signed in member to their profile page, and will cause any non-signed in visitor to be sent to the sign in page.

Thanks,
Phil

Beautiful!  Exactly what I was looking for.

I must admit that I was guessing at lots of options (http://creators.ning.com/profile ... nope... http://creators.ning.com/profile/listForContributor... nope..) but never just tried /profiles (plural).

Thanks so much!

/Clark
