   Is it possible to manually link to a author page depending on which user is logged in?

   Once a user is logged in and I would like a link to appear which will take them to their own author page.

   I'm currently trying to edit the Sidebar Login Plugin From:
   

   $link[0] = str_replace('%userid%',$current_user->ID,$link[0]);
   echo '<li class="page_item">'.$link[0].'</li>';

   to

   $link[0] = str_replace('%userid%',$current_user->ID,$link[0]);
   echo '<li class="page_item"><a href="http://www.ceativityds.com/admin/$curauth">'.Profile.'</a></li>';
   echo '<li class="page_item">'.$link[0].'</li>';

   But I am currently stuck with: echo '<li class="page_item"><a href="http://www.ceativityds.com/admin/$curauth">'.Profile.'</a></li>';

   Any idea how I can edit this?

   Thanks

   here is some sample code to display the an author link

   function authorLink() {
   if (is_user_logged_in())  {
   global $user_identity;
   get_currentuserinfo();
   return '<a>View Your Posts/Custom Posts</a>' ;
   }else {
   return '';
   }
   }
   add_shortcode('authorLink', 'authorLink');
   
   function add_pagination_to_author_page_query_string($query_string)
   {
       if (isset($query_string['author_name'])) $query_string['post_type'] = array('post','a_custom_post_type');
       return $query_string;
   
   }
   add_filter('request', 'add_pagination_to_author_page_query_string');
