redirect author link on comments reply

  • When you’re logged in and go to leave a comment it says ‘Logged in as ‘user’. Log Out?’ I would like the word ‘user’ to link to the users bbpress profile thats set up instead of the wordpress profile in the backend.

    site: https://retreadwerks.com/wordpressNew/

    I know very little about php and how to make it work but I’m good with html and css.

    You’ll have to change the url in the widget code (or copy the code into a new widget).

    Alternatively, you could use some jQuery to rewrite the URL when the page loads. It’s an easier solution, though not as elegant.

    Thanks Cooper, I’ve gone through the code a bit and nothing looks like a url link. They all seem to be pulling some function or another. Any suggestions on what else to look for and/or in what file?

    I’ve found where the code lives! Now I don’t know how to change it to point to the bbpress profile. I’ve tried changing the href to href=”https://retreadwerks.com/forums/users/%1$s” but thats not working either. I dont know what bbpress users for its profile url but I’ll keep looking.

    In the meantime does anyone have any suggestions?

    <?php printf(__('Logged in as <a href="%1$s">%2$s</a>.'), get_option('siteurl') . '/forums/users/', $user_identity); ?> <a href="<?php echo wp_logout_url(get_permalink()); ?>" title="<?php esc_attr_e('Log out of this account'); ?>"><?php _e('Log out ?'); ?></a>
