Hi there,

I'll ask about loading $user->getProfile()->get('id') in other elements of ES.

It perfectly works in eg. default.header.php, but when I'll load this in eg. themes/wireframe/videos/default.php it show me and error:


Notice: Undefined variable: user in /components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/videos/default.php on line 79



Fatal error: Call to a member function getProfile() on a non-object in /components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/videos/default.php on line 79


which line of code I need to copy (in controller I suppose) to load actually viewed user Profile Type ID?

I'll be very grateful for your help!

Best regards!
Adam
Hello Adam,

You can try this: 


echo $this->my->id; // this will display the id for the current logged in user.


Hope this helps.

Hello Adam,

Ah, I see. You can use this instead:


$user = FD::user($uid); // $uid is the user id for the viewed user. This line is to load the user table. 

echo $user->getProfile()->id;


Hope this helps.

Hello Nik,

I need to refresh this thread - loading Profile Type ID actually viewed user (not my) in ES 2.0

When I put your last code, it loads Profile Type id but my, not user who I actually see.

How can I modify it to work correct?

Best regards!
Adam
