Hi, This is regarding buddypress adding new tab to the member profile main nav and when is click direct user to the author posts www.mysite/Author/username/

After researching and looking I have find this code that it kinder works, it creates a new custom tab and direct users to the new post but the URL is not what i'm looking for it creates member/username/mypost what I need is something like this www.mysite/Author/username/ I just don't understand how i can achieve this with this code below....

function ibenic_buddypress_tab() { global $bp; bp_core_new_nav_item( array( 'name' => __( 'My Posts', 'ibenic' ), 'slug' => 'my-posts', 'position' => 100, 'screen_function' => 'ibenic_budypress_my_posts', 'show_for_displayed_user' => true, 'item_css_id' => 'ibenic_budypress_my_posts' ) ); }

In your screen function ibenic_budypress_my_posts create a redirect. Something like:

function ibenic_buddypress_tab() { 
    bp_core_new_nav_item( array( 'name' => __( 'My Posts', 'ibenic' ), 'slug' => 'my-posts', 'position' => 100, 'screen_function' => 'ibenic_budypress_my_posts', 'show_for_displayed_user' => true, 'item_css_id' => 'ibenic_budypress_my_posts' ) ); 
}

function ibenic_budypress_my_posts() {
    $url = '/author/' . bp_get_displayed_user_username();
    bp_core_redirect( site_url( $url ) );
}
