Until DICE comes out with the button, could you do this and add the drop down to it? :)
if(BBLog.cache("mode") == "bf4"){
if($(".main-nav .base-section-menu").children().children("a[href*='platoon']").length < 1){
$(".main-nav .base-section-menu").append("<li data-page='platoons'><a class='wfont' href='/bf3/platoon/landing/'target='_blank'>Platoons</a></li>");
}}

Menu item added, but the BF4 Battlelog doesn't seem to like my dropdown :( Will look into it more.

Did you configure the platoons in the settings?

Nothing is shown if you do not fill in any platoons
Okay. Anyway each time i refresh Chrome; the Platton Dropdown settings are unchecked.
If it's working it's maybe my browser

It shouldn't matter if it is checked or not. Did you tried putting some random data in the popup to see if it works?
I made some random platoon name and his id and i am not able to press Enter button too.

Oh, I see what you mean. Try to click the add button and then refresh the page. It should work. The list isn't automatically updated, I will probably change it to do it so.
For me it doesn't work. I filled my platoon id and refreshed but nothing happens. The dropdown stays empty.

I'll suggest to add some information to the empty dropdown.
I searched some minutes until i checked that i need to goto the BBLog settings :)

Maybe add the button to the entry editor also to the dropdown.

This is now fixed, along with many improvements and new features.
