Glad you liked the centre tip, Not sure what to say about why the bar hasn't extended :eek:

You add this at the very begining

Code:

<table cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 align="center"><tr><td>
then your menu bar code

Then this at the end

Code:

</td></tr></table>
That should do it :o

Marked as Installed, Nominated, 5 star.

Thanks UK, this is a great snippet of code and will make my life a lot easier, especially integrated with vba with navbar turned off. I'm working on a new site and to have those great links + garage / arcade / photo's / etc. all available just under the logo really is a nice bonus. Great work, much appreciated!

not really a support question since you helped me out previously, but more of a suggestion needed from you.

if you check out my forum, i used your spiffy little drop down menu and also kept the navbar. however, the more i look back at my forum, the more i ignore the drop down menu and my eye goes to the navbar menu instead. do you have any suggestions on how i can make the drop down menu as the 1st menu people see as opposed to the navbar menu? i'd like to keep the navbar as kind of a "quick links" menu, but i will also be putting everything from the navbar onto the drop down menu as well (kind of like duplicating). for example the itrader will eventually be placed into the drop down menu as well.

basically, i would like some suggestions on what templates i can manipulate to make the drop down menu stand out more. i'm open to ideas.

thanks

edit: btw, i nominated this mod. i absolutely love it, just need ideas to make it stand out more so than the navbar menu.

shinng,

You can remove the navbar altogether and use it in it's place. That's how I have it on my site.

i'd like to consider both options.

option 1: i do what you did and remove the navbar completely. if i were to go that route, how would i do that? i guess i could look through all the past pages, but perhaps you have it all organized in one location?

option 2: if i wanted to keep the navbar as a sort of "quick links", then it goes back to my original inquiry about how to make it stand out.

I have Quick Links on my site with this mod mate so you can use this mod and get rid of the old one

very nice, i really like what you did with the menu and actually the entire forum overall. very clean, organized, and easy on the eye.

couple questions for you:
1. how did you put a space between your banner and the menu? you see how mine doesn't have spacing in between?
2. is there a way you can possibly list the mods you used whether template mods or plugins? if you can't/don't want to list all, how about the names of the mods to do these - rotating banner at the header, "ads by google" directly below the breadcrumb, changing the user information in each post to the left as opposed to the default in the right hand corner.

thanks again to you and ArnyVee, i'm almost convinced in taking out the navbar completely. i'm just worried that if i do take it out, i'll mess up my template.

ArnyVee 06-04-2009 12:14 AM

shinng,

Be sure to copy your navbar code and save it in a text file before starting to mess around with it in case you need to go back to it and try again :D

I went ahead and found the thread that I used for guidance in removing the actual navbar. Here it is....

....good luck with it and let us know if you need any other pointers! Lots of great people in this community that will help you get to where you need to! :up:
