Add BBpress Favorites Link in Admin Drop-Down Bar

Hello All,

I am trying to add a link to bbpress 2.1.1 user favorites in the admin drop-down bar. I want to keep the forum as clean as possible so I do not want to add another drop-down menu on the bar. There is not a direct link to User Favorites because the code calls up the specific user id. I was able to add direct html links with Angela’s code from this post

Below is her code that you add to the admin-bar.php file:

function remove_admin_bar_links() {
    global $wp_admin_bar;
    $wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('wp-logo');
    $wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('updates');
}
add_action( 'wp_before_admin_bar_render', 'remove_admin_bar_links' );

function add_admin_bar_links() {
    global $wp_admin_bar;
    $wp_admin_bar->add_menu(array(
        'parent' => 'my-account-with-avatar',
        'id' => 'sup',
        'title' => __('Support Center'),
        'href' => "http://hosting.centilin.com/support/")
    );
}
add_action('admin_bar_menu', 'add_admin_bar_links');

Here is the php code from the bbp plugin of the bbp-user-template.php file.

/** Favorites *****************************************************************/

/**
 * Output the link to the user's favorites page (profile page)
 *
 * @since bbPress (r2652)
 *
 * @param int $user_id Optional. User id
 * @uses bbp_get_favorites_permalink() To get the favorites permalink
 */
function bbp_favorites_permalink( $user_id = 0 ) {
	echo bbp_get_favorites_permalink( $user_id );
}
	/**
	 * Return the link to the user's favorites page (profile page)
	 *
	 * @since bbPress (r2652)
	 *
	 * @param int $user_id Optional. User id
	 * @uses bbp_get_user_profile_url() To get the user profile url
	 * @uses apply_filters() Calls 'bbp_get_favorites_permalink' with the
	 *                        user profile url and user id
	 * @return string Permanent link to user profile page
	 */
	function bbp_get_favorites_permalink( $user_id = 0 ) {
		return apply_filters( 'bbp_get_favorites_permalink', bbp_get_user_profile_url( $user_id ), $user_id );
	}

If anyone knows how I could merge the two codes to produce a user friendly link I would greatly appreciate it.

Genuinely,
