what would be (if possible) the code to add to a field to link it to a profile.

I dont mean just website.com/userprofile/username...

like for example in the userlist...when you see the avatar and click on it, it takes you to that profile.

I want to do the same thing in userlists but with a regular image "CLICK HERE TO SEE PROFILE"

I can easily delimit a field to get an image in the userlist, but what substitution code would I apply to this field to have it link the the profile.

reasoning:
Only my Paid users see avatars, but free users can still use the lists and search.

The lists look a little boring without an avatar or an image.

I cant use any of my regular delimited images that already appear on the free profiles. as those already are directly linked to the register page.

So I was thinking maybe there was a way to create a delimited field of an image and add an if statement to it to get it to link to each profile displayed.

sugggestions?
thanks

this was my first attempt.

- created a delimiter field
- added an image to it
- add this code as the link
[code:1]index.php?option=com_comprofiler&Itemid=127&task=userprofile&[user_id][/code:1]

also tried
[code:1]index.php?option=com_comprofiler&task=userprofile&[user_id]&Itemid=127[/code:1]

The url produced by the browser seems correct but it doesnt link.. I get these errors

Illegal variable _files or _env or _get or _post or _cookie or _server or _session or globals passed to script.


I think I'm close.

Okay I think I got it

yes?

[code:1]index.php?option=com_comprofiler&task=userprofile&user=[user_id]&Itemid=127[/code:1]


I think this is the answer,
seems to work.


and I could not have found the answer on my own without Krileon's tutorials about substitutions and IF statements.

Thanks
