I would like to create a link that will tell members where to find their badges in their profile. In this post I would like to direct members to their profile with a link. For example: https://meta.discourse.org/users/YOUR-USERNAME-HERE/activity Is it possible to do this in a post using markdown?…

Can this same solution be used to direct to a users post in a category. eg: I want to encourage my users to create a progress log. I have a Discourse category for these logs so I can link to the category, but I wonder if I could link to their log directly and if they don’t have one it would fall …
