Manually Link to Author Page

    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,$link[0]);
echo '<li class="page_item"><a href="https://www.ceativityds.com/admin/$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="https://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');
