Question: 

1) I am kind of stuck on "Adding a nice button that links to the profile". I searched posts about where to paste the PHP code snipet, but I did not find anything with clear directions. I went to administer-> content templates -> profile (edite template) ->affect teaser out put. I pasted the code there and I assume that is wrong because my profile does not look anything like the book.
2) 4.4.2 Menu link to my profile (where does this PHP code snipet go?
Thanks

Hi,

For 2) it goes in a new block: /admin/build/block/add

For 1) This is the place to put it. But you should not look at the profile (node), but instead the profile teaser.
If you turn on the right options at the "content profile" configuration of the profile "content type" --> display teaser, you should be able to see the theaser if you click on "my account".

Hi
I get this error when I try to add a link to My Account using the text and image button methods:

Parse error: parse error in C:\wamp\www\MySite\includes\common.inc(1645) : eval()'d code on line 7

Any idea what I must do?

3. Menu Link Error

Make sure that you run the update. I see the same problem some times and most of the time running update fixes the problem. This is most important when you have install a new module or an updated module.

Hope that this help.

Go into the modules menu and look at the top, there you will see the update link. The other way, your site name, with /update.php at the end, i.e, http://www.example.com/update.php will work.

Also one other note, that I have found that works: Deactivate the module that is giving you trouble and on the module menu at the top you will see an uninstall tab. Click and uninstall the module and then re-install the module.

I am still new at this, but this what I have found that works most of the time.

One more thing, I have found that some of the updated modules do not work as intended, so going back to the old module works too.

It turns out I never replaces the '' after I copied the code from the book.
Thanks for the help.
