Lack of interest {user.username} and {user.userid} as {user}{id} everywhere?

You ask my, where you can see your profile.
And i cant answer you.

I can say something like:
Please go to

https://xenforo.com/community/account/account-details

then click on "Your profile" somewhere on the left.

It would be nice to say jump to:
a) https://xenforo.com/community/members/{name}.{id}/
or
b) https://xenforo.com/community/members/you

and this is my solution, i will add that now.

But probably someone else had this idea before?
if not you maybe want to add this for all people.

https://xenforo.com/community/members/you or

https://xenforo.com/community/you

would be very nice, while the redirect looks for your $visitor.username, user_id.

I had to read the suggestion about 5 times to understand what you are talking about

If I understood this correctly, you suggest to have a route (like members/me) which always redirects to the visitors profile?

Yeah, I thin that's what it means.

It would be nice if there was a general site.com/profile link you can point users to to view their own profile.

There's ways of doing it if using template syntax. But that's no good for conversations, emails IM's etc.

I will upload a small addon in a minute or two.
Then you link the profile with

https://xenforo.com/you/

I tested your resource before you deleted it and it was working well, but there was an error trying to use it when logged out

You or me? Both?
I just was sad to explain users how to find their profile.
