HOW TO: Author URL link = Using Buddypress profile WPML

Hello guys,

for anyone out there trying to get the right Author URL link using buddypress and WPML, I shared how I solved it (e.g. author url link to take you to /es/members/jose or /en/members/peter or /fr/members/jean).

IN…

/classes/class-main.php :

CHANGE the ‘get_the_author_link’ to….

$post_author_string .= (‘yes’ == $this->widget_args[“post_author_url”]) ? bp_core_get_userlink(get_the_author_meta(‘ID’)) : get_the_author();

|____> use the bp_core_get_userlink() instead of get_the_author_link

Plugin author: It would be awesome to have a way of using the buddypress profile instead of the author’s link as an option for the widget, mainly for those using Buddypress and WPML. One vote here.

Thanks for the plugin mate,

Cheers from London
