Thanks man but I am using a template I got here and it doesn't work.

Works Great... As per the post by Super Jinni it would be good to get this working on Vbadvanced.

I don't know why I never thought to do this already. Thanks!

I really like this, but unfortunately it does not work on one of my styles. So I was hoping you could just post the template edit and I manually add it to all my templates.

Still need help on this. Here is my original way the template looks:

		<if condition="$show['member']">
		<td><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/nav_div.gif" alt="" /></td>
			<td align="center" class="h_nav"><a href="usercp.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[user_cp]</a></td>
		<td><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/nav_div.gif" alt="" /></td>

				</if>

Okay. After experimenting with my custom styles, this is what I guessed...

Take the original "UserCP" in the NavBar:

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="{$vbulletin->options[bburl]}/usercp.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[user_cp]</a></td>

And replace it with:

<td id="usercpnmenu" class="vbmenu_control"><a href="{$vbulletin->options[bburl]}/usercp.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[user_cp]</a> <script type="text/javascript">vbmenu_register("usercpnmenu"); </script></td>

This seems to make it work. (Took it from the xml file.)

Is that correct?

A second idea is to edit the template file and create a 2nd Global template called "Header_navbar_user_menu". So then there would be two global templates.

Then change every templatecache['navbar'] to templatecache['header'].

This should make it search the header template as well as the navbar template. That's my guess, but I want to ask the author, Atakan KOC.

Because many of our custom navbars are in the header template as well as the navbar template. I want to test it out, but I am a little afraid because I've never made an xml file before.

Would that work? Could you make a new xml that would search the navbar template AND the header template?

(might as well search the head include and footer too, since those are the main 4 templates they always use for custom styles)

By the way, it's cool how you did this. In the future, I think I'll make an xml file/special template for all my dropdown menus. I need to practice a little though.

One added note: It would be cool to make a mod that would make the xml file for any drop-down menu you choose. You would input the drop-down title, then drop-down items and links, and then the Title and Template name. Then you hit enter and it would make the xml file for you. That would be cool.

Atakan KOC,

I talked about your xml file in this link:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=183578

Based on this, I suggested a new mod that would make menu creation so easy. Do they have something like that? Okay... enough for one day. lol.

Hrmmm - sure would be nice to be able to easily add links to this drop down....
