How does user profile get called ?

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

Trying to understand the linkage a little.

   I see how you create a dashlet now, but how does a page URL get defined.
   I see in my.profile.html.ftl
        <a href="${url.context}/page/user/${user.name?url}/profile" class="theme-color-1">${msg("link.viewFullProfile")}</a>

   I see \components\profile what looks like the user profile page, so how is this linkage done ?
  
   I don't see it at the moment

${msg("link.viewFullProfile")} are strings from the dashlet.get.properties files.
${url}, ${user} and other things are root objects created by the /share application.
You have the controler script in dashlets, you can add new root objects there. Ie:

dashlet.get.js (the controler script):
var someVar = getInformationFromRepository(); // this would be a function that calls some alfresco webscript and gets back info
model.someVar = someVar;

Then you would have the "someVar" object available in the freemarker, ie:
dashlet.get.html.ftl:

<div name="result"> Here is the result: ${someVar} </div>

That is how it's basically all done. Some root objects (like url, user and similar) are created by default, some you create on your own.

Is that what you mean?
