Question

I created a trigger, at least, I’m trying to. But my query doesn’t quite work. What am I missing here?
The query inside the trigger works perfectly on it’s own:

INSERT INTO user_signup_log (user_id) VALUES (4)

This is my trigger query:

DELIMITER $$
    CREATE TRIGGER user_signup_trigger BEFORE INSERT ON site_users
    FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
      INSERT INTO user_signup_log (user_id) VALUES (NEW.user_id)
    END;
$$
DELIMITER ;

The error I’m getting:

#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'END' at line 4

I followed instructions from another question here on stackoverflow how to create a trigger. And I also was able to create a different trigger with a similar query, and that one does work. You can find that one in another question, which is still unanswered

DELIMITER $$
    CREATE TRIGGER user_signup_trigger BEFORE INSERT ON site_users
    FOR EACH ROW 
    BEGIN
      INSERT INTO user_signup_log (user_id) VALUES (NEW.user_id);
    END $$
DELIMITER ;
