Okay so in my app I want that when users click on the username of the people then they should be taken to the profile of that specific person. As of now I have a page where the profile of the current user is shown. How can I achieve this ?

Actually, let me reformulate my answer Each user should have a ‘username’ field. You should make sure this unique. You should have a repeating group showing all, or a subset of users. One of the elements in this repeating group should be a text element, and it should be dynamic showing that use…

Another way is to pass the current user to the page/group. So let’s say that on group/page 1, you have a repeating group of users and on group/page 2 (with content type of user) is a profile page. You can have an icon or button in your repeating group cell that sends the current cell’s user to group…

@louisadekoya - Good alternative. Any idea if your method results in the profile page loading more quickly?

@andrew1 , thanks. To be honest, I’m not sure. The method I shared uses a feature (‘current page’s user’) that seems to have been built specifically for this purpose, so perhaps it will load quicker. As always, there’s more than one way to do things it Bubble and it often just comes down to personal …

@louisadekoya I picked up the method I talked about from @brentsum on his Codefree course - maybe he’s tried both methods and has some insight?

@louisadekoya Well I tried your method but I still get the profile of the logged in user and not the user who created the post. [image] [image] What is the problem ?

Thanks a lot but things are still overwhelming for me. In my database I have a field by the name “unique_id” which stores the unique id of the user once created. How should I proceed further ?[image] [image]

@akul3007 - You’re getting there. First, you need to add a ? after the last / of the URL (before ‘unique ID’) Then, you need to click on the ‘Get data from page URL’ and another window will popup: [image] Then where it says parameter name, type “unique_id”

Also @akul3007 , the mistake you’re making with @louisadekoya 's solution is, with ‘Data to send’, you’re sending the user who’s logged in. Rather, if you’ve got a repeating group of type User, you need to send the 'Current cell’s user".

Okay, so I have made some change in the database. Now whenever the user creates a post and his name appears on the page a unique_id is created in the database which is equal to the unique id of the user(which was created during registration of the user). But on checking my database I can’t see the …
