javascript - Publishing users data, for profile page -

so i'm creating user profile pages, , have gotten data current user working fine. issue i'm having current user can't see other users data.

i've looked @ can find on web haven't find answer has helped me, many different ways of doing 1 thing.

my publish

meteor.publish('allusers', function(user){   return meteor.users.find({_id: this.userid},{      fields: {            profile: 1,                   emails:1,                                                                                                                          username: 1        }    });  });  

my router

router.route('/profile/:_id', {  name: 'profile',   waiton: function(){   return meteor.subscribe('allusers')},   data: function(){       var user = this.params._id;       return meteor.users.findone({_id: user});   }, }); 

profile template

<template name='profile'>       username: {{username}}<br>       email: {{email}}       {{log}}       {{#with profile}}           full name: {{name}}           {{log}}           {{/with}}   </template> 

helper

template.profile.helpers({   name: function(){           return this.name;   },   username: function(){       return this.username;   },     email: function(){       return this.emails[0].address;   },     log: function(){       console.log(this);   }        }); 

and how i'm linking other users

<a href="/profile/{{owner}}">{{username}}</a>

owner being users _id:

the log output current user showing data though log output of other user empty object. though grabbing right _id.

in allusers publication, find user {_id: this.userid}. this.userid id of user subscribing. means you're publishing user's own data, , not data of other users. if wanted publish of users, you'll want use .find({}, {fields: ...}) instead.

for applications more few users, publishing users not idea, instead can publish 1 user:

meteor.publish("userbyid", function (requesteduserid) {   return meteor.users.find({_id: requesteduserid}, {fields: ...}); }); 

then when subscribe in router, pass in user id:

meteor.subscribe("userbyid", this.params._id);
