the Strict Standards problem :
I think this is related to the php version you use and the php version that existed when this plugin was written - but this is no probleme - on production sites the display of this messages is turned off and you can meke the same thing by editing your php.ini file :
Look for a line like :
error_reporting = E_ALL ...
and add & ~E_STRICT to turn of the strict standard messages

the login problem is normal because your sql query contains errors because at the end there is the id missing :
... WHERE viewer_id = id AND profile_id = (here there should be the id you want to compare to

Ok, I still have to learn how to use SELECT, FROM and WHERE. But once the MySQL field returns the right email adress, how can I implement it to the webadress link ?

Isn't it risky to edit php.ini ? I'll have to do it every time I update Joomla ?

you could perhaps make a select to get directly the mail address, no ?
this would be kind of :
select : email
from : #__users
where : id = {USERID}

for php.ini : I suppose that you work on a local machine with your own apache server
here you can do what you like
the only thing is - if you are also programming in php on this server - the messages will not appear and so you can't react to this messages and make the necessary corrections.
Update Joomla does not affect php.ini

THANK YOU ! It works ! The only thing left to do is to use this info in the Breezingform forms, I'll keep you aware wether it works or not.

Actually I am not on a local server, and my host refuses to let met access the PHP.ini file. I will need to do that through the htaccess file, if possible.
