URL generation method?

[Renari]

Is there one? I assume so since Xenforo supports using modrewrite to make more friendly URL. But I can't seem to find it.

I'm referring to generating URL using PHP. Not the option to turn it on.

What specifically are you needing to know or trying to do?

The class responsible for building URLs is XenForo/Link.php if that helps.

 

[Renari]

Thanks I figured it out.

$link = Xenforo_Link::buildPublicLink("members/{username}.{id}");

Will generate a link to the users profile.

That works, but this is more correct:

$link = XenForo_Link::buildPublicLink('members', $user);

Where $user is the user record or is an array which contains at least the username and user_id.

Thanks, Jake.

You can see that in the official xenforo code ( $this->responseRedirect ...) like here (which is a custom code):

 return $this->responseRedirect(
XenForo_ControllerResponse_Redirect::SUCCESS,
  XenForo_Link::buildPublicLink('members/mobileedit'),
  'You just changed your mobile number'  );
