Re: How to make user id hyperlink to user information page
There may be some confusion because there are 2 places where there is a "User information:" drop down selection with the options "Private" or "Public".
One is on the individual user's "User Preferences" page, that is the one that must say "Public" for them to get their user name as a hyperlink in the Login module.
The second place there is a "User information:" selection is on the Community/"General Settings" page. On that page the "User information:" selection is for setting the default for the "User information:", what it will get set to for new users added after the default is changed. If you had "Private" as the default when the user you are having the problem with was added, and you changed the default to "Public" on the Community/"General Settings" page after they were added, then their individual "User information:" is still set to "Private" and they will not have their user name as a hyperlink in the Login module. Changing the default does not change value of that field for existing users.
To check the setting in the preferences for a user, go to Admin/Users and click on the "Change user preferences: username" icon in that user's row of information.
