Syntax Error when I try to create trigger in mysql - mariadb

Question

I am trying to create an trigger for an audit log, where after an insert into manageMemberLog and the action column is equal to CREATE, then insert the associate columns of users table and then grab the select the newly created row and grab the userID and then insert the rest of the data into profile, but I get this error msg when I tried to submit the query.
#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near 'END' at line 9
Line 9 = END IF;
I tried carefully re-typing what I wrote but same error msg.
UPDATE: used the formatting and it says WHERE userID = #newUserID is the error, which i still don't understand as I grab the data from select and set the value into #newUserID.
DELIMITER $$
CREATE TRIGGER usersDB_ai AFTER INSERT
ON manageMemberLog
FOR EACH ROW
IF NEW.action = 'CREATE' THEN
INSERT INTO users (firstName, lastName, userName, email, pwd) VALUES (NEW.firstName, NEW.lastName, NEW.userName, NEW.email, NEW.pwd);
SET #newUserID := (SELECT userID FROM users WHERE userName = NEW.userName AND email = NEW.email);
UPDATE profiles SET rankID = NEW.rankID WHERE userID = #newUserID;
END IF;
END$$
DELIMITER ;
The related tables:
CREATE TABLE `users` (
`userID` int(11) NOT NULL,
`firstName` varchar(128) NOT NULL,
`lastName` varchar(128) NOT NULL,
`userName` varchar(128) NOT NULL,
`email` varchar(128) NOT NULL,
`pwd` varchar(128) NOT NULL
)
DELIMITER $$
CREATE TRIGGER `userCreated` AFTER INSERT ON `users` FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
INSERT INTO profiles (userID) VALUES(NEW.userID);
END
$$
DELIMITER ;
CREATE TABLE `profiles` (
`profileID` int(11) NOT NULL,
`userID` int(11) NOT NULL,
`rankID` int(11) NOT NULL,
...
)
CREATE TABLE `manageMemberLog` (
`manageMemberLogID` int(11) NOT NULL,
`manageDate` datetime NOT NULL,
`managerID` int(11) DEFAULT NULL,
`action` varchar(6) CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 NOT NULL,
`userID` int(11) DEFAULT NULL,
`firstName` varchar(128) CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 NOT NULL,
`lastName` varchar(128) CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 NOT NULL,
`userName` varchar(128) CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 NOT NULL,
`email` varchar(128) CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 NOT NULL,
`pwd` varchar(128) CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 NOT NULL,
`rankID` int(11) NOT NULL
)
Can anyone help thanks in advance!

Silly Me, so what went wrong is I forgot to write "BEGIN" after FOR EACH ROW and does not involve any of the error that it says. Error messages are sometimes not reliable but I guess it did help by say END. A better error message is you can't end when it never began.
so correct query is:
DELIMITER $$
CREATE TRIGGER usersDB_ai AFTER INSERT
ON manageMemberLog
FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
IF NEW.action = 'CREATE' THEN
INSERT INTO users (firstName, lastName, userName, email, pwd) VALUES (NEW.firstName, NEW.lastName, NEW.userName, NEW.email, NEW.pwd);
SET #newUserID := (SELECT userID FROM users WHERE userName = NEW.userName AND email = NEW.email);
UPDATE profiles SET rankID = NEW.rankID WHERE userID = #newUserID;
END IF;
END$$
DELIMITER ;
