Hi everyone, We're currently planning the next releases of Croster, and we'd love to hear directly from the WHMCS community. If you're already using Croster for your business: What features do you use the most? What frustrates you the most? What improvements or new features would make the biggest difference for your business? If you're not using Croster yet: What has stopped you from trying it? Is there any feature you feel is missing? What would make you consider switching to Croster in the future? If you could change just one thing about Croster, what would it be? We're not looking for compliments -- we're looking for honest feedback. Every suggestion helps us build a better product for the entire WHMCS community. Thank you for your time and support. We look forward to hearing your thoughts!

Try to remove the line 'uri' => '#',

You may use like below: <?php use WHMCS\View\Menu\Item as MenuItem; add_hook('ClientAreaSecondarySidebar', 1, function ($secondarySidebar) { global $smarty; $templatefile = $smarty->getVariable('templatefile'); if ($templatefile == 'clientareahome') { $secondarySidebar->addChild('slider', [ 'label' => 'Atendimento', 'uri' => '#', 'icon' => 'fa fa-sun-o', ]); $sliderPanel = $secondarySidebar->getChild('slider'); if ($sliderPanel) { $CustomHTML = '<div class="sidebar-atendimento"> <div class="status-message" id="statusMessage"> <div class="status-header"> <span class="status-title" id="statusTitle">Carregando status...</span> <div class="status-icon-small" id="statusIcon"></div> </div> <div class="status-description" id="statusDescription"></div> </div> <div class="horario-info"> <div class="horario-title">Horário de Atendimento:</div> <div><strong>Abertos:</strong> 08:00 às 18:00, Seg-Sexta</div> <div><strong>Fechados:</strong> Domingos e Feriados</div> </div> <div class="nota-fiscal"> <strong>Nota Fiscal:</strong> Pedidos de Notas Fiscais, solicitações são somente via ticket. </div> <div class="buttons-container"> <button onclick="openChat()" class="botoes-sidebar">WhatsApp</button> <a href="https://painel.hostcuritiba.net.br/submitticket.php?step=2&deptid=1" class="botoes-sidebar">Abrir ticket</a> </div> </div>'; $sliderPanel->moveToFront(); $sliderPanel->addChild('custom-html', [ 'label' => $CustomHTML, 'uri' => '#', ]); } } });

Please give the below method a try, it will definitely work <?php use WHMCS\View\Menu\Item as MenuItem; add_hook('ClientAreaSecondarySidebar', 1, function ($secondarySidebar) { global $smarty; $templatefile = $smarty->getVariable('templatefile'); if ($templatefile == 'clientareahome') { $secondarySidebar->addChild('slider', [ 'label' => 'Atendimento', 'uri' => '#', 'icon' => 'fa fa-sun-o', ]); $sliderPanel = $secondarySidebar->getChild('slider'); if ($sliderPanel) { $sliderPanel->moveToFront(); $sliderPanel->addChild('custom-html', [ 'label' => 'Test Sidebar', 'uri' => '#', ]); } } });

Sorry, I forget to declare $vars, Please try below: add_hook('ClientAreaPrimarySidebar', 1, function (MenuItem $secondarySidebar, array $vars) { if ($vars['templatefile'] == 'clientareahome') { ...rest of code } });

You should wrap the hook code, add_hook('ClientAreaPrimarySidebar', 1, function (MenuItem $secondarySidebar) { if ($vars['templatefile'] == 'clientareahome') { -- rest of code } }

Maybe MySQL's strict mode is enabled, please try to disable.
