Hello!

We have got a custom user profile module. With this module users can view AND edit their profiles. I create links to the page with our installed user profile module this way:

return Globals.NavigateURL(portalInfo.UserTabId, "", "UserId=" + _userProfileInfo.UserID);

I think that portalInfo.UserTabId returns the "Site settings - Advanced settings - page management - User page" setting. (Is that correct?)

Now when I add a link with the link module with link type "User" these settings are not used - this link leads to a page like "...ViewProfile...". What have I to do to link to our custom profile page (depending on the site settings)?

Kind regards
Torres

Or am I totally wrong?

If you are using the link module and linking to the users as one of the options you are going to get some problems - at least from my experience - if you need to do this you might want to hand code the links for yourself (not a lot of fun) or write a small module that can pull users from the database and display them - you could put up a config section to let you choose what users etc. - this is the best way whne using a custom reg module - at least thats what I have done -

Hope I understood your problem

Thank you for your suggestions!

Our problem is that we want a custom user profile page. would it be better to create a custom module for this user profile or would it be better to customize the "viewprofile" page of the link module (if this is possible)?

is this viewprofile page actually the dnn core user profile page?

Thank you
Torres
