default homepage link
 

is there a way to have the homepage link be the link to the user's profile for new registers? instead of just being blank?

What home page link and what do you mean by being blank? A link to this page and a better explanation would help.

sorry, i thought that was self explanatory.

i meant on the user profiles where it says under contact: Home Page! the link there is usually by default blank, i was wondering if it was possible to set that to their profile link, by default.

There isn't something to set in vb that would do that. You'd have to write some plugin that hooks into a location during the registration process. It would have to be one that occurs after a userid is assigned but before the end of the registration process. Then you'd have to insert the link there - member.php?u=$userid . And, you'd have to run a query to do this for all your current users also.

Where do you plan to have users 'see' this homepage link? You could just change it in the templates - <if homepage is blank> show member.php?u=$userid <else /> show what they input </if> Also, if I recall, if the field is blank, no one sees that link so it isn't even available to people to see/click on so why worry about it?

actually i'm starting up a completely new community. just going through a couple of points in my head that i thought would make the forum a little sweeter.

the if else function sounds nice, i think i'll do it that way.

thanks for the help!
