How To Set Your Steam Profile Link Correctly? Options

[qoLmE]

Hi there,

This might be a noob question but I seem to not be able to correctly set my Steam profile URL inside my profile settings.

When I copy the link of my Steam profile, which is the steamID64 ( https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197990716275 ), the site automatically transforms it into https://steamcommunity.com/id/https://steam...561197990716275

So the forum puts "https://steamcommunity.com/id/" in front of whatever you type in that box.
I also tried using my steam3ID & steamID32 without succes.

Can't for the life of me figure out any link that starts with "https://steamcommunity.com/id/" that would lead to my Steam profile...
Am I really being daft or is this site not up to date with possibly renewed URL structure of Steam profiles?

Here’s how to do it:

• Open Steam and log in.
• Click your username at the top-right and choose “View My Profile.”
• Hit the “Edit Profile” button.
• In the left menu, go to the “General” section.
• You’ll see a field labeled “Custom URL.”
• Type in your desired username or handle — for example, proplayer2025.
• Once you save, your new Steam link will look like this:
• https://steamcommunity.com/id/proplayer2025

Thanks for the response but I wasn't looking for detailed instructions on how to set a custom Steam URL.

If you've read all the posts in this thread you would have seen that there's a problem with the site's profile setup when entering a non-custom Steam profile link in the box.
As long as the forum automatically puts "https://steamcommunity.com/id/" in front of it, original Steam URL's ( those with a big number ) will never work since they never contain "id".
