Topic: [FAQ] Profile pages for your members

Name: Profile Pages
Author: Flexer
CuteNews Compatibility: 1.3.6 - * (no incompatibility reported yet)
Description: You can have a profile page for all your members (journalists, editors ...) and automatically generate a link to the member's profile page.
These pages are NOT maintained through CuteNews.
Instructions:


The idea is to make different information pages with the exact names as the names of your members. Then in your template you can change 

By {author}

to something like:

by [url=http://www.site address.co.uk/profiles/{author}.html] {author-name}[/url]

You can make and link to a list with all posts made by this author using this code in your template:

[url=www.site.com/cutenews/search.php?dosearch=yes&user={author-name}&search_in_archives=TRUE]all posts by this author[/url]
