 * Possible to make usernames clickable?
    Click on username and it redirects to …/
   something/username

 * I have tried your script but it doesnt do what i want.
    Instead it redirects 
   to …/forum/MY_CUSTOM_LINK Same link no matter what user i click.
 * Can it be done so it redirects to buddypress profile?
    If i click username 1 
   then its redirected to username 1 buddypress profile. If i click username 2 then
   its redirected to username 2 buddy press profile. Etc…

 * Hello [@autox420](https://wordpress.org/support/users/autox420/)
 * Of course it can, but the code need to be changed so it will exactly do what 
   you want. Based on the extensions you are using the code can look different, 
   so its hard to provide you with some example code because I never worked with
   buddypress. Maybe someone can in their support forums can give you a working 
   example. 🙂
