Hello,

how can I find User ID and Username on Profile page

for example:

http://www.example.com/members/658-john

I want to get var 658 and john on a custom tab that I create on profile ID page.

I am using {vb:raw bbuserinfo.username} and {vb:raw bbuserinfo.userid} then it only show correctly on my profile page but if I visit other member's profile then it is still show my ID and username while I need it show member's ID and member's username.

Please share way to get userid and username on my custom profile tab on my profile and other member profile.

Thanks in advance

On top of my head, I think the userinfo array should be used.
So make use of {vb:raw userinfo.username} and {vb:raw userinfo.userid}.

I believe it is the $prepared array you want, so I would try {vb:raw prepared.username} and {vb:raw prepared.userid}.

I now see either suggestion will work, but you will have more information available about a user if you use Dave's suggestion. :)
