cant turn off user profile was created by Michael Green
Im am trying to disable userpages or aka...k2 profiles...or preferably remove the commenters username (not remove the display of their name but the link to their userpage) link from the comments posting.. I would like my commenters to be able to post comments but not have viewers be redirected to a user page since the will have no articles.
I see no option in the parameters to disable link from commenters username in comments..
(to be clear i do not want to remove commenters username entirely but just the link to their profile.)
I have turned off k2 profile in the Parameters/Advanced/Enable K2 User Profile....still does not stop the ability to click on the commenters username and be directed to a empty userpage.
Example ---->
my comment author link imgur.com/u8xfN0P,BTCOa9G#0
K2 Demo comment author link imgur.com/u8xfN0P,BTCOa9G#1
Any idea what may be wrong? I had emailed a link to the website along with credentials in case you guys can help out. thanks again for any help.

Not sure if im asking the correct questions because im learning your software but im hoping you guys get the general idea of my dilemma as you guys have been doing this for quite some time.....
So after much research...turning off the k2 profile will not stop linking to an empty members page....
Also...as per many postings on joomla forums...k2 saves its own account details and personal details well, but does not save user profile data unless the k2 user plugin is disabled...
However i cannot turn off joomla profiles becuase i use it for registrations.....can k2 profile and joomla work together?
..I understand k2 is supported via free forum but ive just purchased most of your commercial extensions (all associated with k2 ) and hoping that counts for something with you guys
so if you can
!. Links to comment author disabled like your demo?
2. default joomla profile save data issue?
3. remove joomla profile from k2 without turning off joomla profile? dosent work
thanks

Actually you are not asking the correct question. This link is towards the site the user has specified in the comment's form (hence the link to an external site).
This has nothing to do with the K2 user's profile.
The link to the profile can be found in the item or in the listings (category listing etc).
K2 profile and Joomla! can work side by side. The comment link has nothing to do with K2's nor with Joomla!s profile. It is simply a link towards the commenter which he provides. Even a guest can post a link towards his site.
Revert your changes, override the comments/ commenters modules (I am sure you know how to from our previous conversations) and remove the link to the commenter's site.
This means, changing this:

Thanks i will try this method...
but also any idea why the k2 accounts page will not record any joomla profile data? it displays the form but will not save any input.

The only data that Joomla! 's user object has is the email name and password. All the other data (avatar, gender etc) are a part of K2.
