Getting sent to the default login screen (because $profile is not an id) for my ED forum when clicking on user profile links in ED. I am using the Zinc template and the latest release of ED3
I figured out the problem. It is a routing configuration issue. I had my routing SEO settings (on the backend) set to display username only,
and fixed the error. Thanks for your help. I am sure I will need it again.

Hello Frederick Gimino ,

I have a little bit lost here, can you elaborate more details regarding this? Perhaps provide us the step how to replicate on this.
Is it possible provide us with your Joomla backend and FTP access so we can help you check on this? Please advise.

Just to clarify I can navigate to profiles when I am logged into the site.

Hi,

You just click on a profile link when you are not logged in and the error from:

components/ com_easydiscuss/views/profile

// If profile is invalid, throw an error.
if( !$profile->id )
{
// Show login form.
$theme = new DiscussThemes();

$theme->set( 'redirect' , DiscussRouter::_( 'index.php?option=com_easydiscuss&view=profile' , false ) );
echo $theme->fetch( 'login.form.php' );

return;
}

is triggered sending you to the default login page. This only occurs when you are not logged in.

In other words there is an error retrieving the user id when not logged into the site.

I installed a fresh copy of joomla on a test site with ED3 and find the profile url's looking like this:

/profile/27848-someperson/11.html

I think there may be a routing issue. Your help is appreciated.

Hello Frederick,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here. Is it possible for you to provide us with the back end and FTP access to your site to check on this issue? I have tested this locally and can't seem to reproduce this problem
