I am trying to show the user's avatar next to self-made CB menu, so that it displays the default image (when the user hasn't uploaded the avatar) and shows the user's avatar (when uploaded) but I get stuck in finding the right html code line. Please help. Thanks!

Use substitutions for that in a CB Content Module or anywhere that supports Joomla content plugins using CB Content Bot. See the below tutorial for substitution usage information.

www.joomlapolis.com/documentation/279-community-builder/tutorials/18353-using-substitutions-throughout-cb

Examples as follows.

[cb:userfield field="avatar" /]

[cb:userfield field="avatar" reason="list" /]

I wish to show it on a Widgetkit menu item. Currently, I have the html that is showing the default image hardcoded, so that it shows either default avatar image or uploaded avatar depending on the user. But I wish to add for example [cb:userfield field="avatar" reason="list" /] here. How to add in/substitute the html code like below?

<img src="images/comprofiler/cb_freedomimage_760_5a105ac1b4265.png" style="width: 30px; height:30px; padding-top: 3px;"><span style="color: #FFF;"> Your Profile</span>

The location you're adding your HTML to needs to support Joomla content plugins or you will not be able to use substitutions there.
