Direct Links to pages

hi, trying to use this, but not working for me 🙁

as per previous posts…

function my_nav_menu_my_place($menu) {      
global $wpdb,$current_user;
 get_currentuserinfo();
 $username= $current_user->user_login;
      if (!is_user_logged_in())
                return $menu;
        else

                $menuextra = '<li><a href="/author/' . $username . '/?geodir_dashbord=true&stype=gd_place">' . __('My Profile') . '</a></li>';
                
                                $menuextra2 = '<li><a href="/author/' . $username . '/?geodir_dashbord=true&stype=gd_event">' . __('My Adverts') . '</a></li>';
                $menu = $menu . $menuextra . $menuextra2;
                return $menu;
}

Any views?
