hi,
how can I use tokens like "%user" when creating menu elements at "/admin/build/menu-customize/navigation/add"?
What I try to do is this:
- At "admin/build/menu/add" I created a new menu called "Top Navigation" (top-navigation).
- This menu should contain links to user profile pages, like:
-- Profile Homepage -> user/[USERNAME]
-- Edit your profile -> user/[UID]/edit
-- List your friends -> user/[UID]/friends
-- List your content -> user/[UID]/content
-- etc.
As you can see, each link contains at least one token. But when I try to create links with tokens at "admin/build/menu-customize/menu-top-navigation/add" it won't work (i.e. "user/%user" as path to the profile homepage). I searched at groups.drupal.org and the whole freakin internet but I can't find a way to do that :-(. I also tried to write a module by using hook_menu() and hook_menu_link_alter() but this didn't work out as I thought it would. I wasn't able to create a link pointing to "user/%user" and putting this link into the menu block "Top Navigation".
How can I solve this?
Thanks for any help.
best regards.

Hi Arshad,
thanks for your answer. I'll try this out :-)
Is there a way to write a module which creates a menu-block with "hook_menu()" and then put this menu-block into a region (either also through the module or by going to "/admin/build/block")?
The menu structure I'm thinking of is something similar to this:
-- My Friends (a page at "user/[UID]/friends" created via panels.module)
-- My Content (a page at "user/[UID]/content" created via panels.module)
-- Edit Account Information (the default user edit page -> "user/[UID]/edit")
-- Edit Profile Information (link to the edit page of a profile node created via content_profile.module -> user/[UID]/edit/profile)
-- etc. (whatever I want to link to)
Maybe you have an answer for this, too :).
Thanks for your help.
best regards.

I tried the me.module and immediately after installing and opening the page "admin/build/menu/item/342/edit" I got this warning message:

I also found this issue: http://drupal.org/node/803702
I'm using the latest drupal version 6.17.
Any idea what's going on?
