I've been working on customizing the layout of the vBulletin forum I have up and I wanted some help with what sections to edit before I go about changing anything else.

You can see what I'm working on at:

forum (http://www.bipolartreatment.com/forum/)

Don't worry about the nasty colors :nervous: ...I just set them that way so I can remember where each element needs to be changed.

Anyway, I would like to know where I can get the code to apply apply the same behavior from the navbar to the buttons which I have now put up in the header.

The only other thing I wanted to know was where I could edit the layout of the other elements on the page. For example, if I wanted to remove the welcome message or if I wanted to put the login box up in the header too....

I just want to shift some things around and get rid of some other ones, but I don't want to delete something vital.

thanks.

Hi..

well it looks like so far so good for you, the navbar template will have alot of the code or links you'll need for your custom header, check the forums for a custom login hack just so you can use the code in your header, i think all you need will be found in the navbar template.

thanks for the response.

I looked through the navbar template and it didn't really seem clear as to what code I should be cutting out and placing on the <img> tags that I have for the new buttons I made.

Also, I searched the forum here and I couldn't find the hack for re-positioning the login box. I did find a post that said that if I moved '$logincode' that would re-position it, but I've been searching through all of the templates and I can't find that variable.

My expertees only go so far with SQL and PHP...

okay, I did get the login problem sorted out....sort of. I now have it in the top right like I wanted, but the border around it is gone. I'm sure I can find a way to fix that.

However, it did leave the border around the tree structure menu. Can anyone tell me off the top of their head which setting in the CSS I can adjust this with?

okay....I could have sworn that I put something in there before to try and change the value but it didn't happen....

Good now though, thanks.
