Hello,

I'm new to K2 and wanted to add a "My Page" button like on this website.

How to?

 

Thanks in advance

hi,

 

<a href="<?php echo JRoute::_(K2HelperRoute::getUserRoute($user->id)); ?>">  </a>

 

this is the link to the account itemList page, maybe check if user is a guest and if so redirect him to the registration page, otherwise, if it's logged in, goes directly to the account main page.

 

Then edit your components\com_k2\templates\user.php to change layout of the page if you want...

 

cool grazie Andrea,

 

this helps me a lot

my problem now is to put this script into a joomla menu!

do you have any idea on how to do that?

 

thanks again for the great hint!

Andrea

You have two way, if you're using the joomla menu you have to catch the click on this unique <a> and control the user to redirect.

 

But i suggest you to use a "custom html module" instead of a joomla menu if it's not necessary...install a module that allow you to use php in custom modules, then just write down your html menu and check it directly with php.

 

Don't know exactly but maybe you will have to change the "a href" to something like:

index.php?option=com_k2&view=itemlist&task=user&id=<?php $user->id; ?>

thanks Andrea,

 

I'll add a new template-position right next to the joomla menu just to publish the custom module along with your code.

Turned out something pretty easy "per fortuna"

Yes, you can use a simple custom module just for this link..

 

$user = &JFactory::getUser();
if (!($user->guest)){
<a href="<?php echo JRoute::_(K2HelperRoute::getUserRoute($user->id)); ?>"> My Page </a>
else
<a href="THE REGISTRATION PAGE OR WHATEVER"> Something </a>

 

maybe, instead of JRoute you have to use a direct link so:

 

$user = &JFactory::getUser();
if (!($user->guest)){
<a href="index.php?option=com_k2&view=itemlist&task=user&id=<?php $user->id; ?>"> My Page </a>
else
<a href="THE REGISTRATION PAGE OR WHATEVER"> Something </a>

 

Saluti :)
