how to Display UserPhoto in "Menu bar"

    You can add the user photo via your master template using the Smarty tag {photo_link}. You can also use the UserPhoto() function and pass in the session user object.

    Maybe this will help , although it is for mobile theme this can also be applied to desktop theme.

    Here is what I did for my own forum. My theme is php based. That means it has a default.master.php file. I included everything from the Authenticator so you can see where I put the code. I also replaced the inbox with an image. In order for this to work, you must also replace/remove the original link of the user from the menu.

    $Authenticator = Gdn::Authenticator();
                        if ($Session->IsValid()) {

                            $CountNotifications = $Session->User->CountNotifications;
                            if (is_numeric($CountNotifications) && $CountNotifications > 0)
                                $photo .= ' <span>'.$CountNotifications.'</span>';
                            $photo = UserPhoto(Gdn::Session()->User);

$this->Menu->AddLink('User',  $photo,  '/profile/{UserID}/{Username}',array('Garden.SignIn.Allow'), array('class' => 'UserNotifications'));
 $this->Menu->AddLink('User',Img('/themes/VrijVlinder/design/images/inbox.png', array('title' => T('Inbox'),array('class' => 'Inbox'))), 'messages/all',array('Garden.SignIn.Allow'),array('class' => 'UserInbox'));
$this->Menu->RemoveLink('Conversations',T('Inbox'), '/messages/all', array('class' => 'Inbox'));

$this->Menu->AddLink('SignOut', Img('/themes/VrijVlinder/design/images/off.png', array('title' => T('Sign Out'))),  $Authenticator->SignOutUrl(), FALSE, array('class' => 'NonTab SignOut'));
                        } else {
                            $Attribs = array();
                            if (C('Garden.SignIn.Popup') && strpos(Gdn::Request()->Url(), 'entry') === FALSE)
                                $Attribs['class'] = 'SignInPopup';

                            $this->Menu->AddLink('Entry', Img('/themes/VrijVlinder/design/images/on.png', array('title' => T('Sign In'))), $Authenticator->SignInUrl($this->SelfUrl), FALSE, array('class' => 'NonTab'), $Attribs);
                        }
                        echo $this->Menu->ToString();

    Here is a screen shot of my menu where I replaced all the links with images including the user and the inbox with the code above.

    @frindman‌ I believe I accidentally corrected your syntax error when I reformatted your post. I added a ; at the end of line 25 in the above post.

    Yea, remember that the urls for those images go to my site you need to either make your own images and add the link there or remove the other links with images.

    Don't just copy the whole code over.** Try to understand what you are copying **.

    All you need from my code is the user link. I only gave you all that other code so you can see where that link goes.
