javascript forums menu

[samhail]

OK...
what i think would be nice is if there was a hack that would see which forums you have access to and put up a menu of all the forums...
using the forum categories as the menu name and the subforums as all the entires ?

and maybe even putting in a simple template system to use with it ?

what thinks ye ?

You mean the Quick Forum Chooser?

[samhail]

exactly... though you way that like there is something like that out there ?
i havnt seen it if there is :(

www.boards.ie has a nice one... but i expect that that is just in the header and specific boards

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Well the Quick Forum chooser is just default vB.

[samhail]

where is this ? bottom right?
thats not showing on my site :(

AdminCP->vBulletin Options->General Settings->Use Forum Jump Menu: yes

On each forum settings you can also choose to include that forum in the Jump Menu.

i tried to rewrite the construct_forum_jump function to create a popup menu style rather than the drop down menu... the recursive function was OK... but as soon as it started into hooks i got coompletely lost :(

its just a matter of changing the variables that stores the dropdown menu HTML to a popup DHTML code... but i dont know where that is :(
