[info module] How to link photo owner to profile page?

If the user sets the url in their profile when they/admin set up the user then it will be a link to that url.

you could edit the info_block.php file to add:
user_profile::url($user->id)
that should get the profile page.

Well Dave, I tried to play around with it for an hour and couldn't quite get it to display correctly. Here's the block code:

if ($theme->item->owner && module::get_var("info", "show_owner")) {
$display_name = $theme->item->owner->display_name();
if ($theme->item->owner->url) {
$info["owner"] = array(
"label" => t("Owner:"),
"value" => user_profile::url($user->id) .
html::clean($display_name) . "</a>"
);

The bold part is what I've been messing with (did not include the Bold tag in the code). Two things: 1.) How do I correctly write it so it will display a hyperlink? 2.) I can't figure out the $user variable to have it print the user ID # instead of the user name. The way it is written now (as shown) outputs the username, but not the ID. I studied the way the COMMENTS BLOCK handled the user profile links and it showed it as $author_id so I'm wondering if perhaps it's $user_id .

Dave,
Thank you for responding. All I am trying to do is have a "Uploaded by: John" link that, when is clicked, it will take the visitor to the uploader's profile page. That's why I was wondering if we could customize the info module so instead of having the URL link, it would go to the user's profile page. I don't know why you said "If it is a link and the user is not that user they will get a 404/permissions/dang page" because if I click the "historykid" profile link from the RECENT COMMENTS block, I am able to go to the historykid profile page and see his profile. I want to use that same functionality in the info module and direct the visitor to historykid's profile page.

Does that make sense?

OK I get it now. A logged in user can view the profile. Guests will still get a 404.

          }
        }
        $block->content->metadata = $info;

        module::event("info_block_get_metadata", $block, $theme->item);
      }
      break;
    }
    return $block;
  }
}

That is the whole info_block.php file

don't forget the first 19 or so lines.
