What template do I edit to add this top_nav mod to my vbadvanced?

excellent hack, very easy to use.. thank you! we have this working also with CMPS & ibproarcade on 3.7.1. since many others have these installed, i would recommend adding these to the instructions. this post was very helpful for the arcade edit, thanks!

i have a very small but annoying problem that someone else mentioned & fixed, but i haven't. i know i could probably fix this by adding the topnav code into the main navbar template, but i'd prefer to keep them separate the way they are.

our site url: www.ink3s.org - the border on the top of nav2 is color #c2c2c2 (light grey), and there is no border around the sides. i compared this part of the code to the code in navbar:

nav2:

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center" style="border-top-width:1px">

navbar:

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

when i copy the navbar code into nav2, it put a black border around it (which is what i want), but also puts a border on each td (which i don't want).

i also looked @ style manager/main CSS - the tborder class mentions nothing of #c2c2c2. when i added "border: 1px #000000;" to the "Extra CSS Attributes", i got no border @ all. where else can i look to fix this? it's driving me insane lol.

Is anyone using this with vBadvanced CMPS? The top nav bar drops on the vBadvanced front page and I can't figure out why.

Admin Control Panel --> Plugins & Products --> Manage Products --> Add/Import Product

From there, browse to the XML file and click on [Import].

I hate quoting myself, but I found the answer to this and thought I should post it in case anyone has the same problem.

If you have the vBadvanced CMPS installed and want this hack to work, go to:

Admin CP => vBa CMPS => Default Settings => Main Options => Portal Output Global Variables

Once there, add "nav2" (without the quotes) and the topnav bar will work on the front page also.

I am having a small problem with drop-down menus. On the main navbar, all the drop-down menus align perfectly under the main item.

On the top_nav, they are dropping down about 100 pixels to the left. Look at the attached image.

How do I get my drop-down menus to drop down in the right spot?

Any answer to this would be appreciated.

Is this even being supported anymore?
