[Marky]

I have two weeks of exams left. After they have finished, I will be working hard on completing Menu Control 1.4
I think I will make 2 of the links dropdown bars and I will include a HOW-TO with the modification telling you how to add more options and dropdown menu links

[Hornstar]

I just uninstlled it then intalled it again to see if it would fix the problem

But i still get this for the links that I add

Marky,

I read thru the thread and may have missed it...

I have added a second menu but it's the same as the first one. How do I make the second menu different than the first one?

Do you mean you installed Menu Control again to get a second menu? If so - this would happen because the variables are the same as the original Menu Control installation. I edited the modification for someone on this forum so that you could install menu control a second time, I've just found the edited xml file. Gimmie a few and I'll post up how to install Menu Control a second time.

How to: Add a third menu to your forums by installing Menu Control Twice

This edit to Menu Control has only been tested on one board, and I am prepared to give support for it. BUT - consider this option as a beta, as in the next version, I will include more stable instructions how to do this...

STEP 1: Upload the attached .xml file (menucontrol-1.3-extended.xml) as a product as you would with Menu Control.

STEP 2: Go to template 'Navbar':

FIND: $menucontrol

ADD BELOW: $menucontrol2

STEP 3: You can now view options for your third menu in vBulletin Options under 'Menu Control 1.3 Extended'.

Thanks,

Marky
