You mean like in it's own column? Kinda like in vbadvanced? Have you looked through the Mods section?

Erm I mean like how you can have the "navbar" in a column going downwards on the left of the page.

I thought it was template edits

Nice, like that but instead the actual navbar there (user cp,members list etc...)

Well, use the method to get the sidebar and then take all the navbar links and put them in there - in the navbar3 template (or whatever they call it - it's called out as $navbar3 in the code there). Most of the links in your navbar are in columns with <td> tags, you will need to add row tags around them, <tr>, or take away the columns and just put a line break after each link. It kinda depends on the spacing you want for them (and whether you want dropdowns). I tried searching and that is the only one I came up with. You could try searching the mods with other keywords since I only used "navbar" (and "All Mods" "Titles Only").

1) ok thanks, are we allowed to post other links to other forum sites to show an example in this thread?

2) Will 3.7 mod work for 3.6.8 vb and are we allowed to edit the templates others asked us to make?

I have seen other people post links to show examples before. I have seen them removed if they are to adult sites or warez sites though.

2) Will 3.7 mod work for 3.6.8 vb and are we allowed to edit the templates others asked us to make?
Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. And, sometimes they work with just a small bit of modification. You really don't know sometimes until you try it. Or, sometimes people post in the thread and say "I tried this on my 3.6.8 board and it worked just fine." So, read the thread and see if there are any comments like that. You are allowed to edit your own templates from mods. I think the only thing the modification writer asks is if they put in some sort of "Modification By YYYY" somewhere, then they would like you to leave it in (usually I see that in styles or really large modifications, not usually little ones).

Oh okay, I ain't going to post the link BECAUSE the link you said, is better. After a few hours of researching I came across some interesting navbars, Ultimate *name* nice navbars etc... but the best thing I think is the 1 you said.

Thanks for your advice :)
