I’d just do a site wide search for print_username( and then locate the area’s where you want to change the link and do exactly the same as you did in the above tutorial to achieve the desired tab results.

The SEO code did fix the problem perfectly!!

I still have a big challenge though.. as I have not been able to configure the same ‘default to Full Profile’ from other areas of the site.

For example, “Find Services” creates a list of users with full profiles. Each list includes a link to the users profile/feedback area. When hovering over this link is shows the mysite/members/user_id, but I don’t think the call from the search result is {seller} rather I think it’s {data[username]} which I can’t seem to track down like {seller} and $seller. I think I’m getting lost with all different user id variations like {vendor}, {provider}, {user}, etc.

My main goal however is simply to have the search results of service providers with listings to have the same result as achieved from forward auctions. (I don’t have reverse auctions). From the url it seems like members.php would have handled these, but it seems to be ‘not’ so.

I know I’m making this more complicated, but I’m at least gaining a lot of understanding through the process.

SEO will definitely kill this tutorial.

In the final step of the tutorial make the code look this

$seller = print_username($res_project_user['user_id'], 'href', 0, '&profile=1', '-profile');

That should take care of the seo problem for ya.

I’m wondering if since I’m using SEO (SEF – Search Engine Friendly URLS feature) if that is preventing it from working as intended?

Can you comment on this, or provide troubleshooting advice. And thanks again for a well done ‘how to’.

Thanks
