    Is there a way to create a dynamic link for the current user?
    Instead of “admin” in the below example line, I would like the “current user”.

    /members/admin/groups/

    Hi Mazin,

    Thanks for your post. You can use something like this “/profile/” to go the “current user” profile.

    You will need UsersWP to do something like that.

    Thank you guys, I think you misunderstood my question.
    What I am trying to do is create a dynamic link on a sidebar or a page that when clicked it will take the Current User to his own groups.

    This option is not available from the WP menus and shortcodes. I believe it requires a dynamic link. The link syntax for the Admin to go to his own group is: /members/admin/groups/

    the /admin/ needs to be replaced somehow with the current user.

    Oh, sorry, now I think I misunderstood, because UsersWP doesn’t have groups – yet.

    The URLs you are showing are common for BuddyPress. If you are looking for a link to BP groups, then you will need to take that up with BuddyPress support.
