Best way to display UserID in Navigation Bar

[Vaporizin]

I would like for the UserID in a tab on the nav bar. I already placed UserID here under avatars like so;


I know how to make and edit tabs, but not too sure on how to make UserID show up there.

I'm curious... why?

[Vaporizin]

User always ask for their User ID for several reasons and I'd like it to be displayed to them.

The code is already there, in the Display.template.php. Basically you can simply use $message['member']['id'] in there to call for the User ID.

That won't work in the nav bar, since the nav bar is in index.template.php and doesn't reference $message stuffz.

Sorry. I did't read properly. I think there is one topic that deals with that before. May be you can search?

I use $context['user']['id'] in QRR mod after globalizing $context. You should be able to use that too.

'title' => $context['user']['id'], resulted in this:


Yeah, we're getting there, that's what I want. However, I need to let people know why that number is there.

So I simply added the  'UserID' , bit in the code like: 'title' => 'UserID:' , $context['user']['id'], and it results in this:

Doesn't show the number at all next to "UserID"
This is in Sources/Subs.php

Better give the whole code that you add plus few line above and below. It is really not clear on how you added it. Plus you need to use a dot (.), not a comma (,).

Yep, fatal mistake. Used the dot and now it works.

Still learning though.
