Hey there,

I am really sorry for the delay in this reply as it was a public holiday for us here.

Actually, the user profile and group page already contain a link for the about, you can check my attached screenshot below.

So I am not sure what kind of about us link you referring to?

Or are you referring to how to add a custom link on the user profile and group navigation bar?

If so, the file location you shared is correct, you need to use the following checking to determine whether the current page is user profile page or group page.

$customOption = $this->input->get('option', '', 'cmd');

$customView = $this->input->get('view', '', 'cmd');

$customLayout = $this->input->get('layout', '', 'cmd');



if ($customView === 'group' && $customLayout === 'item') {

	// show a group about us link

}



if ($customView === 'profile') {

	// show user profile about us link

}

I want to have one link name on the user's page and another name on the grou, page and the event.

Your verification code is not suitable for this file (.../components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/helpers/cover/navigation.php).

I am sorry that I am not quite sure if I understand your question earlier, do you mean that you would like to add a few custom links on a specific user profile navigation bar? (screenshot: https://monosnap.com/file/FUXcousjMG6v79tkwfd84iN98eOLZK )

I want the user to have a link - About me
and the group to have a link - About group

You can check the following code how to generate the user/group/event/page about permalink on the site.

$eventId = 1;

$event = ES::event($eventId);

$aboutPermalink = ESR::events(array('id' => $event->getAlias(), 'page' => 'info', 'layout' => 'item'));

var_dump($aboutPermalink);



$pageId = 1;

$page = ES::page($pageId);

$aboutPermalink = ESR::pages(array('id' => $page->getAlias(), 'type' => 'info', 'layout' => 'item'));

var_dump($aboutPermalink);



$groupId = 1;

$group = ES::group($groupId);

$aboutPermalink = ESR::groups(array('id' => $group->getAlias(), 'type' => 'info', 'layout' => 'item'));

var_dump($aboutPermalink);



$userId = 1;

$user = ES::user($userId);

$aboutPermalink = ESR::profile(array('id' => $user->getAlias(), 'layout' => 'about'));

var_dump($aboutPermalink);

I don't need to change permalink
I want to change the button as I did in the old versions.
The user has a 'Profile' button instead of the 'About' button

Hmm, I am really sorry that I am totally lost here.

Do you mean your current issue is when the user clicks on the "About" button link it doesn't redirect to the user's about page?

Is this the issue are you complaining about right now?

or are you referring to you want the user click on the user profile link, it should show the user about page first instead of the user profile timeline?

For example:
1. Click the user profile link > show the user about page information
2. Click the timeline tab > only show the user profile timeline page

I want the user to have a button called - 'About me'
and the group button was called - 'Main'

But they both refer to the words COM_ES_ABOUT="About"

Thank you so much. You've been very helpful. It works all correctly
