    Hey there, I’m looking to simply change the destination of the ‘profile’ link in the widget. I want to avoid users having to access the back end of wordpress and have decided to use the Front-End Users plugin to do so. Now I just need to point them in the right direction ?? Which file should I edit to implement this change? I noticed a few people have already mentioned this might be useful also.

    Thanks in advance!

  • hi there,
    1.in your wordpress menu go to Plugins-> Installed Plugins
    2.under “Login With Ajax” select Edit
    3.from the right sidebar choose : login-with-ajax/widget/widget.css
    4.then the right sidebar will update so choose : login-with-ajax/widget/default/widget_in.php
    5.go down in the codes (center of the page) and find this line : if( function_exists(‘bp_loggedin_user_link’) )
    6.now change the link to where you want it to point. (simply change YOUR_DESTINATION)

    if( function_exists('bp_loggedin_user_link') ){ ?>
<a href="YOUR_DESTINATION" ><?php echo strtolower(__('profile')) ?></a><br/>
	<?php }else{ ?>
	<a href="YOUR_DESTINATION" ><?php echo strtolower(__('profile')) ?></a><br/>
<?php
}  ?>

    Cheers mate =) I actually figured it out already but thanks all the same!

    your welcome ??

    voji91, thanks for posting that code to change the destination. This plugin really needs that addition, makes it perfect.

    I’d argue that plugins with front-end profile pages should deal with this, i.e. redirect /wp-admin/profile.php to another page. I am pretty sure that a few do (e.g. s2member)

    that said, will consider this as a setting
