Description

Expected Behavior

When I am doing add user to invite user request. I found. After you click to add a new user from the Quick Links section, it appends showadduser=1 to the URL permanent, which causes you to land on the add new user page when you click the user menu item.

Current Behavior

Research direction
The issue is about a URL parameter `showadduser=1` persisting after navigating from the Quick Links section. To fix, identify where the parameter is appended (likely in the Quick Links component or the user management page controller). Ensure that after the user is directed to the add user form, the URL parameter is removed or the navigation doesn't include it permanently. Check files like `plugins/UsersManager/templates/` or JavaScript files handling menu navigation. Look for any routing logic that might cause the parameter to stick.
