How to add navbar under banner?

[Nkay]

Hi guys,

Not sure whether this is in the correct forum or not but i was just wondering if anyone knows how to add the nav bar directly underneath a banner rather than the default position of the navbar?

If anyone knows how to do this then it'll be greatly appreciated.

I've seen it done on lots of forums but i just don't know how to do it on my own forum.

Thanks in advance.

go to navbar template

find this:-
<!-- nav buttons bar -->
<div class="tborder" style="padding:$stylevar[cellspacing]px; border-top-width:0px">
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr align="center">
<if condition="$show['member']">
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="usercp.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[user_cp]</a></td>
</if>
<if condition="$show['registerbutton']">
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="register.php$session[sessionurl_q]" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[register]</a></td>
</if>
$template_hook[navbar_buttons_left]
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="faq.php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="5">$vbphrase[faq]</a></td>

hope this helps..

Thanks alot mate. That's exactly what i wanted :) I don't suppose you know how to make an image appear next to the private messages if a user has a new pm?

For example: If a user has a new PM, a message icon will flash and if they don't have any new PM's, the message icon will not flash.

Thanks alot :)

I don't suppose you know

lol

that would probably be a blinking.gif image just like vB.org has

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2009/01/44.gif (This is just a DEMO, do not copy it.. it belongs to vB.org)


hopefully.. you'll have to wrap this image in the condition below:-

<if condition="$bbuserinfo['pmunread']">
<img src="blinking.gif">
</if>


the code would be somewhat like this in navbar template !! adjust the positioning as desired ..
