thanks for your time
I understand everything about your summary, technically it is not a good idea to use the field name for the url couse it is not unique.

Just an idea, it could be possible to use the field name+the id of the user??? :whistle:
IN that way the url is unique

I dont know if it is possible
Thanks
Frank

It could be possible - by modding a core file, which isn't supported here.

Well
I found the solution for my need but I need to know if there is the possibility to use the id of the user(just that) in the url of the users.

Thanks
Frank

As I already said in this post :

I made since one small code change, and now my profile URLs are containing the user ID instead.
...
(In case anyone wonders: the change was small but in a core file, so no posting here in respect for JP's policies.)


So, is there the possibility? Absolutely yes.
Is anyone going to tell you here in the forum how to do it? Nope, sorry.
