I have a members table in my application’s database, where I store application-specific information about a subset of members. One of the columns is discourse_user_id. I’d like to render a link to the member’s discourse profile. Is it possible to do that with just their user id? I am not storing di…

One idea is to put an external ID in the user record and then you could use /by-external/:external_id. The other is to use a webhook to notify your external database if they change their username. Another is to just disable changing usernames. From a quick look at discourse/config/routes.db I don’t …

Poking around the API docs and a REST client, though, I don’t see how to update that field. Can I use that without enabling SSO? (And, even if I en…

Comment puis-je lier à un profil utilisateur par son ID utilisateur ?

J’ai créé un plugin pour activer cette fonctionnalité :

/user-by-id/123/summary redirige vers /u/janedoe/summary, etc.

Je suis encore surpris d’avoir dû faire cela, mais au moins, cela fonctionne !
