I’m trying to make it so that comment author names on comments.php will link to a profile page that displays the information the user entered into the wp-admin. I’ve been doing a lot of searching on this and always end up at wiki.wordpress and codex.wordpress. Yes, those pages have taught me how to make an author.php page and how to call the information but that isn’t what I’m looking to do. I’m wanting to be able to click on a commenters name, just a registered subscriber not an author, and view their profile within my theme.

Basically I’m trying to make the profile information useful on my site. Any other suggestions besides those two links?

I have gone over that link so many times now and I still can’t get what I’m wanting or what they are asking for.

I have an author.php page set up and it works perfectly when you click on an authors link. I’m trying to figure a way to make it so that it displays the other registered members when you click on a their name in the comments.

I have read tons of posts about this and read the pages that keep getting posted and I still can’t figure out how to make the comments link to the author.php page?????

It turned out to not be the css file. I use a rating plugin and the code to add it to the template was messing it up. Thanks for your help.

uh…good question but I’m afraid I don’t know. I’m basically just copy/pasting things and expiramenting with them ’till they work. I too would like the code to say hello to guest as well. sorry I couldn’t help.

Well, it did work until I updated my theme. I’m using Journalized and everytime I put the code into one of the columns it only displays:

Hello,

Any ideas?

Thank you very much!

I am using the journalized 3 column theme and I’m trying to show the recent posts in column b. For some reason, they appear with the list bullets and it also adds it’s own “Recently Posted” box that messes my theme up. Can anyone help me by telling me how to remove the box and the bullets? Please!

Ok, <?php printf(__(‘Hello, %s.’), $user_identity) ?> basically did the job I wanted. I now have a message at the top of my sidebar the reads Welcome to the site username! if their registered and if not it just reads Welcome to the site!

Thanks for the help.

I can’t tell you how to fix your problem but I can tell you that the plug-in author is very quick at helping people. If you haven’t already, I suggest posting a message on his forum about it.
