Message icon in the Module CB Activity ?

As far I know, the icon for messages ans the one for notifications  are displayed only on the profile page.  Thanks to module CB Activity, the notification icon can be displayed on all pages. It seems that i cannot do that for the messages. Is there any possibility to display this icon (with number of pending message of course) ?

 

There isn't a way out of the box, but it's doable with CB Code Field. Create a Code fieldtype then provide it with the following code.

I recommend putting it on a tab that's in a not shown on profile tab position so you can use it for external display purposes only. Next substitute that field into a CB Content Module using the following.

That should then display the PMS icon same as on profile anywhere you like.

Thank you for the code

I created the CB Code fieldtype named cb_pms but i do not understand which value to set as USER_ID_HERE. The need to display pm icon is not specific to an user.

On other hand, i see a field 'pm'' in the CB fields list. Is it the field to display pm icon in the user's profile page ? Cannot reuse this field in a CB Content module ?

 

Completely forgot I added that functionality to the PM field, lol. Yes, it will work. Edit the pm field then under Parameters > Display set "Profile Display Mode" to "Icon with Popover" or "Icon Only" (whichever you prefer). Next substitute that field into a CB Content Module so you can display it anywhere on your site using the following.

[cb:userfield field="pm" /]
