Add/Remove Profile Action Links

The example below demonstrates how to add a profile action link to the Styleguide. To define your own profile action link, create your own label extension for the link's display label. 

./custom/Extension/application/Ext/Language/en_us.addProfileActionLink.php:

<?php

//create the links label
$app_strings['LNK_USERS_C'] = 'Users';

Next, create the profile action link extension ./custom/Extension/application/Ext/clients/base/views/profileactions/addProfileActionLink.php:

<?php

$viewdefs['base']['view']['profileactions'][] = array(
    'route' => '#Users',
    'label' => 'LNK_USERS_C',
    'icon' => 'sicon-link',
);

Once you have created the extension files, navigate to Admin > Repair > Quick Repair and Rebuild. This will append your profile action item to the existing list of links.

Note: You may need to refresh the page to see the new profile menu items.

To remove a profile action link, loop through the list of profile actions and remove the item by one of its properties. For your reference, the stock profile actions can be found in ./clients/base/views/profileactions/profileactions.php.

./custom/Extension/application/Ext/clients/base/views/profileactions/removeProfileActionLink.php:

<?php

if (isset($viewdefs['base']['view']['profileactions'])) {
    foreach ($viewdefs['base']['view']['profileactions'] as $key => $profileAction) {
        //remove the link by label key
        if (in_array($profileAction['label'], array('LNK_ABOUT'))) {
            unset($viewdefs['base']['view']['profileactions'][$key]);
        }
    }
}

Once you have created the extension files, navigate to Admin > Repair > Quick Repair and Rebuild. This will remove the profile action item from the existing list of links.

Note: You may need to refresh the page to see the profile menu items removed.
