Will need a direct menu for Profile Front page after Nouveau

[vapvarun]

If someone wants to link member front page to user menus, not profile one; they need a direct link to front page ( domain.com/members/username/ )
Current options inside BuddyPress menu link do not point at front page template.

Thanks for opening the ticket, @vapvarun.

Can you please clarify what you mean? You want one of these logged-in links to go to the user profile front page? Is that not what "profile" does already?

@DJPaul there will be two links after Nouveau enabled
First, Home, domain.com/members/username leads to a front page of the profile where widgets can be added.
Second, domain.com/member/username/profile which leads to profile page details.

Communities might need to provide a direct link to member's front page( home tab ), right now with current BuddyPress menu links you have the only option to link profile, not the front page of the member.

Fair enough. This is probably straightforward for someone to build.

No promises for 3.0, though. :)

patch for front tab link

[DJPaul]

Added a in-progress patch so I don't loose it.

I can't currently find wherever Nouveau registers /front/ as a URL; it doesn't work with Legacy, so that needs to be taken into account here somehow. Anyone know where it does it?

Also, point of discussion: why can't the existing http://example.com/members/admin/profile/ link be used instead of http://example.com/members/admin/profile/front/? Can they be different in Nouveau?
