[HUMMERh3]

Installed on vB 3.7 CR2. Works fine, with a small modification (<td> -> <li>, </td> -> </li>)

In the MEMBERINFO template, find:

<if condition="$show['addignorelist']">
     <li class="vbmenu_option">
       <a href="profile.php?$session[sessionurl]do=addlist&amp;userlist=ignore&amp;u=$prepared[userid]">$vbphrase[add_to_ignore_list]</a>
     </li>
</if>

ADD UNDERNEATH

<if condition="$vboptions['vbfavorites_favusers_enabled']">
   <li class="vbmenu_control">
      <if condition="$show['vbfavorites_user_in_favorites']">
         <a href="vbfavorites.php?$session[sessionurl]do=delete&amp;entry_type=user&amp;entry_id=$userinfo[userid]"><phrase 1="$userinfo[username]">$vbphrase[vbfavorites_remove_x_from_favorites]</phrase></a>
     <else />
         <a href="vbfavorites.php?$session[sessionurl]do=add&amp;entry_type=user&amp;entry_id=$userinfo[userid]"><phrase 1="$userinfo[username]">$vbphrase[vbfavorites_add_x_to_favorites]</phrase></a>
     </if>
   </li>
</if>

:up: Please notice the <li class="vbmenu_option"> (li and not td) instead of <td class="vbmenu_option">

Maybe on your vB version the <td> tag, instead of the <li> tag, is used at this point in the MEMBERINFO template; in which case you must follow the instructions given in the readme.html
