Change text (@name) to link to member page

Need help
1

So i’m currently trying to make a twitter like site, and @ mentions are something that is puzzling me.

So i’m currently trying to go into a post and turn any @name stuff into the same text but have that text link to a page which is set up to be a user’s profile.

the url for the page is set up as [appname].bubbleapps.io/member/[username]-[unique id]

would anyone know how this would be done if it is possible?

Do you want this to open in a new tab ? Is that why you need to translate to an external id ?

Rather than try to workout the full URL, I would use the “extract path” function on page load, and read in the part of the url after /member/

So bubbleapps.io/member/[username] … bubbleapps.io/member/nigel

On page load, read in the path (nigel) and search for the profile and set a state on the page. Makes for a neater URL to.
