Default NavBar Links - moving, editing

I don't mind the default navbar at all as I'm not running anything custom or crazy.

I figured out how to add to the NavBar. So far I have not run out of room.

Where would I learn more about making changes to the NavBar?

For instance, moving links from the main to under Community?

How would you handle a Navbar Link that was added via a plugin? (e.g., I have the DownloadsII plugin).

Please enlighten this nut.

 

Hi MjrNut,

I can't point you to any specific sources where you can read about that, but I can give you some examples below.

First, if you want to move some of your navbar links into the community menu then you just need to find the following in your navbar template:

HTML:

$template_hook[navbar_community_menu_start]

Paste the following anywhere under it. Change the link to the one you're moving:

HTML:

<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="http://www.yoursite.com">Your Link Title</a></td></tr>

You can use that to add as many links as needed to your community menu.

 

For links that are added via plugins, you will either need to disable the actual plugin that adds the link and add it manually to your navbar or you will need to edit the plugin so that it adds your link where you want.

If you'd like to post the contents of the Downloads II plugin that adds the link, we can help you to edit it.

 

If I recall correctly the DownloadsII mod has an option to disable the link in the navbar.

Go to vB Options/Downloads to edit should be.

 

You guys are awesome. Yes, I can deactivate that navbar link and then follow the proposed example!

Kudos!

 

Yup. Worked for me.

Thank you
