How To Add Drop Down Menus To Your Navbar
 
I think everyone has encountered the situation at some point or other where their navbar has got very cluttered and they are faced with either adding yet another navbar, or adding some dropdown menus to group some items.

This tutorial explains how to create an additional drop down menu in your navbar.

Firstly, locate in your navbar template the first instace of
Code:

<if condition="$show['popups']">
and add after it
Code:

<td id="custommenu" class="vbmenu_control">
    <a href="#">Custom Menu</a>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        vbmenu_register("custommenu");
    </script>
</td>

Replace Custom Menu with the title for this menu which you want displayed on your navbar and custommenu with the name that you want to give your link. Note that spaces are not to be used as this will break the connection with the actual menu.

Next, in your navbar template find
Code:

<!-- NAVBAR POPUP MENUS -->
and add after it
Code:

<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="custommenu_menu" style="display:none">
<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">
        <tr>
            <td class="thead">Custom Menu</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td class="vbmenu_option" title="nohilite">
content row
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>

Again replace custommenu with the name given to your link. Make sure that you leave the _menu after it as this identifies it as the menu part of the link. Also replace Custom Menu again with the title that you have used for your link.

The content row should be replaced with the actual menu item that you want to have in your new drop down menu.

Repeat the code
Code:

<tr>
            <td class="vbmenu_option" title="nohilite">
content row
</td>
</tr>

as required to add additional links onto your menu.

If you wish to break your menu into sections like the quicklinks use then add
Code:

<tr>
            <td class="thead">Custom Menu</td>
        </tr>

everywhere that you wish to add a new header.

The content added should be in the normal html format for links.



If you wish to add more than one menu, repeat the process for each one, ensuring that you use a different name for each menu otherwise they will not function correctly.


I hope you find this useful.

Grr, I cant get it to go.

peterska2 07-30-2006 01:36 AM

can you post the code that you are using?

SiriusBlack22 07-30-2006 01:41 AM

So wait, what exactly do I put in the content area? Like if I wanted a link, I'd put:

Code:

<a href="blah"></a>
And thats it?

See, I did all that I think and it doesn't even show up on the bar.

peterska2 07-30-2006 01:47 AM

you would put
Code:

<a href="URL">title</a>

SiriusBlack22 07-30-2006 01:52 AM

Ah yes, thats what I meant :p.

Okay, I got that, but it still isn't showing up on the navbar. Any ideas as to how I am messing up?

And thanks for your time, I am not a technical guy..

I can see a link below the bar, but when I click it it just jumps to the top

peterska2 07-30-2006 01:55 AM

can you post your entire navbar template and I'll take a look at what you have done

There we go, missed an option

SiriusBlack22 07-30-2006 02:53 AM

I see where I messed up :). Thank you sooo much!

And if I wanted to add other links, I just have to do that simple short code or do I have to go through all that again? Cuz that isn't working either, but I hope Ill figure it out.

peterska2 07-30-2006 04:13 PM

The last two stages in the tutorial post explain how to add additional links. If you need any help with it, just ask.

m80 08-01-2006 08:07 AM

quick question, i have this and it works great.I currently have the vbradio in my navbar and it is an open in a new window code.Is there a way to have a code in the drop down that opens in a new window?

peterska2 08-01-2006 12:28 PM

Yes, when add the link as normal for one that will open in an external window.

eg

Code:

<a href="www.mysite.com/mypage.php" [high]target="_blank"[/high]>Visit My Page</a>

HPIA 10-14-2006 09:32 PM

Hmm, a link appeared up there but not the ability to have a dropdown menu. Here is the code:

HTML Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function log_out()
{
        ht = document.getElementsByTagName("html");
        ht[0].style.filter = "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.BasicImage(grayscale=1)";
        if (confirm('$vbphrase[sure_you_want_to_log_out]'))
        {
                return true;
        }
        else
        {
                ht[0].style.filter = "";
                return false;
        }
}
//-->

</script>

Can you find what I did wrong please? I followed that very strcty...

peterska2 10-15-2006 05:04 AM

Close, just one little error in there.

Find
Code:

<td id="custommenu" class="vbmenu_control">
and replace with
Code:

<td id="apparate" class="vbmenu_control">

HPIA 10-15-2006 03:18 PM

You are a genius! Worked out perfect.

Now, I have a question. Is it possible, well I know it is but do you know, how to make a dropdown menu viewable by only one usergroup? Like admins have their menu with links to ACP, advanced members have their menu, etc.

peterska2 10-15-2006 04:31 PM

Use
Code:

<if condition="is_member_of($user, x)">
First set of code for the link
</if>

for one user group


Or use
Code:

<if condition="is_member_of($user, x, y, z)">
First set of code for the link
</if>

for multipleuser groups

In both instances replace the letters with the usergroup(s) you wish to be able to see the link.

If you want it shown to all members use
Code:

<if condition="$show[member]">
or if you only want it shown to guests, use
Code:

<if condition="$show[guest]">
In the same way as the first two examples, if you want a link to be shown to everyone except a certain usergroup, then use the same method as the first two examples, just replacing
Code:

is_member_of
with
Code:

!is_member_of
note the [high]![/high] which works as a not.

Thank you so much!

anyone has any live examples?

andewy3k 10-17-2006 09:30 AM

this was very very useful for me, thanks. Had problems though in-which my theme didn't have the actual navbar button in the navbar template. But I was able to figure it all out :)

This worked like a charm.....I tried figuring it out myself then gave up and came over here and did a search.

Thanks for the help

What if I just want a menu to show up in one particular forum?

<if condition="$show[('$forumid ==7')]">

Like that or no?

Thank you for this hack ... works Great!!

Ultimately, when I try to make it a dropdown menu, it messes up on me. Instead of just my menu coming up, it makes my forum come up. It's annoying, how do I fix that?

what code are you using? Please post your code in tags and if possible provide a link to somewhere where this is happening.

Thanks for this tutorial Kerry-Anne , I decided to make a (static) forum jump menu from it. :)

can you share how you did that?

peterska2 11-12-2006 11:48 PM

That would be done by just adding a link to each of your forums into a dropdown created using the method shown in post #1

Exactly, I just used an html editor to create all the tables and then manually added all the forums to it.

I would like to add another navbar on top of the one that I already have, and use the dropdown menus like that. Is this possible to do? I already have an extra navbar with links to various parts of my website, but none of them have dropdown menus.

HPIA 12-06-2006 03:53 AM

One thing I don't understand is why you set it to "nohilite". Why not have it highlighted? The quick links dropdown menu has it on..It looks messy with some highlightable and others not, right?

peterska2 12-06-2006 09:05 AM

I don't know why I did that. Must have been linked to a style I was working on at the time. Just might out that bit and it will work like the Quick Links with highlighting.

GruntHalo 12-27-2006 02:36 PM

Nice post this will help me in the future. :)

Aislinn 01-12-2007 12:41 AM

Thank you works perfectly.

Just one question. Where would I put the code to make the custom menu show up to the right of the quick links. Inbetween the quick links and the log out area. Would I jsut move the first piece of code?

peterska2 01-12-2007 01:00 AM

Yes, just move the first piece to the place you want it to show.

Thanks for the guide!

Hi, Im having some trouble getting this to work. I managed to add the following codes into my navbar. Now the question is how do I create the actual link?

peterska2 01-21-2007 03:37 PM

What code have you added and what are you trying to do?
