Profile Link Next to Logout Button

[dillonk47polik]

I followed the following instructions and was able to remove the "Welcome. Username"

Is there a way to place the word "Profile" where "Welcome. Username" was and have it link to the member's profile? "Logout" is underlined, could "Profile" not be underlined and look like it does as a part of the navigation bar?

Go to Admin -- Structure -- Layout templates -- forum wrapper

remove the following line:

{if !$[current_user.is_member]}
Welcome Guest. Please $[login_link] or $[register_link].
{else}
<span>Welcome $[current_user.name].</span> $[logout_link]
{/if}

if you want to keep the "welcome guest" then just remove:

{else}
<span>Welcome $[current_user.name].</span> $[logout_link]

Hi, dillonk47polik.

I believe adding this to that same line either before or after the $[logout_link] variable should accomplish it.

<a href="/user/$[current_user.id]">Profile</a>

Thanks Brian

After putting in your code, I was able to google how to remove underlines from html code links and put STYLE="text-decoration: none" in along with the code you provided me. And I already that &nbsp; put spaces in code, so I was able to put a space in between the Profile and Logout links.

Thanks for the code you gave me  It did what I wanted.

Brian Is there a way for the Profile link to only show up for members? And be hidden from guests since they do not have profile?

Here is a copy of my current code:
<p id="welcome">
                       <a href="/user/$[current_user.id]" STYLE="text-decoration: none">Profile</a> |
{if !$[current_user.is_member]}
                       {if $[login_link] || $[register_link]}
$[login_link]{if $[login_link] && $[register_link]} or {/if}$[register_link].
{/if}
{else}
$[logout_link]
{/if}
</p>

If you place it right before the $[logout_link] variable (between {else} and {/if} it should only show for registered users since the if statement around that section tells it to only show the logout link for registered users.
