Ok, I must be missing something obvious, but I'm having trouble adding a link to user/%/edit to the main menu. In the Menu UI, I clicked "add link," set the title to "Account settings," and then was at a loss about what to put for the path. I know how to generate a link to the account edit page using views, which is what I've always done before, but this time I actually need to add the link to the "Main Menu."

Try this module menu_token , it allows to use tokens in menu

Menu Token module provides tokens, that could be used in title or in path of menu items (links). For example, if you create a menu item with path: "user/[current-user:uid]", the url will be changed "on fly" to: "user/1" (assuming you are user 1).

You can't use % as a wildcard when adding a menu item like that.

The me aliases module can help you do it.

You install that module and then you can add a menu item to user/me/edit and it will go to the currently logged in user's edit page.

The module smile mentions is a good option too. – rooby Apr 30 at 12:15
