I described the problem in the 2nd paragraph:

Hover over a name in the chat box and the url shows “http://www.rockitpro.com/sf-forum/profile/jc229/” but when the name is actually clicked it takes you to your own profile because it should show the member’s id number instead of his actual screen name, which in this example the screen name is “jc229”

So basically, it’s not linking to the member’s id number when it should.

This changed a long time ago from using the $user_login to the $user_ID

I tried replacing $user_login with $user_ID but that did nothing. If you can help me with this I’d appreciate it, if not I understand. Below is the code, just need to know what code to change so the usernames in the chat box link to the correct profile url, which would be the member’s user id, not display name.

<?php 
 global $user_ID, $user_identity, $user_login; 
 sp_forum_api_support();
 $profile_url = sp_url('profile').$user_login;
 $avatar = sp_UserAvatar('get=1&context=user', $user_ID);
 $avatar_url = $avatar->url;
 ?>

not really sure what the global $user_ID is here…  you want the current user?  then you dont needa  context, and would just want:

$avatar = sp_UserAvatar('get=1');
