Add "post user note" to drop down on member name

[PyroChixRock]

When you click on a users name in a thread, it gives you a drop down menu with some options like "view profile" etc. I'd like to add the option to post a user note in that menu but I'm not sure how. Anyone have a snazzy trick up their sleeve to share?

the closest I could find on here was this thread...https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=232654

Yeah, you can edit the memberaction_dropdown template and add choices to that menu (you'll have to study it a little to see the html used for each choice, but it's not that complicated). If you wanted to make it a product, you could also create a plugin that adds the code to the memberaction_dropdown_items template hook.

I think (hope) I have the code all sorted, but I'm getting this error.

The following error occurred when attempting to evaluate this template:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ')' in /htdocs/www/testforum/includes/adminfunctions_template.php(5432) : eval()'d code on line 96

This is likely caused by a malformed conditional statement. It is highly recommended that you fix this error before continuing, but you may continue as-is if you wish.

Line 96 of adminfunctions_templates.php says:

* @param string The name of the product this template is associated with

Code I'm trying to add

    <vb:if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 5, 6,)">
               <li class="left">
                   <a href="usernote.php?do=newnote&amp;userid={vb:raw memberinfo.userid}">
                {vb:rawphrase post_user_note}
            </a>
        </li>

Any ideas?

I'd have to see the whole thing to know what was wrong, but if you're trying to insert some js code, try surrounding it with <vb:literal>...</vb:literal> tags.

the whole thing is that template you mentioned...here it is. I'm trying to add to the bottom the option for mods and admin (user groups 5,6) to "post user note"

<div class="popupmenu memberaction<vb:if condition="$page_class"> {vb:raw page_class}</vb:if>">

thanks again for the help

I think it might be this line:

<vb:if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 5, 6,)">

you need to delete the comma after the 6.
