Please help - need to unlink the title of the forum and the title of categories

[singa]

Hi

I need advice on how to unlink the tittle (see below) of my site's forum and all the titles in all categories. Please anyone with advice?


I want to UNLINK:

At the very top of the page
SINGAPOREDICE - THE One-Stop Information Point For The Integrated Resorts-Cum-Gaming & Tourism In Singapore
in
www.singaporedice.com/forum

&

And I want to UNLINK:

At the top leftt of the page
Singaporedice
in
http://www.singaporedice.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=3

The first one is probably in your header template. This is from a default 3.6 template - delete the stuff in red:

<td align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>

The second is probably in your navbar template. Again, this is from a default 3.6 template - delete the stuff in red:

<td width="100%"><span class="navbar"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="1">$vboptions[bbtitle]</a></span> $navbits[breadcrumb]</td>

Thank you and thank you AGAIN. :up:
I asked the same question on vbulletin.com and they wouldn't help me, they said you have to ask in here, so after days of headaches the problem has been resolved thanks to you. You're the greatest!:up:
One more question, how do I unlink the titles of the categories?
I am based in South-East Asia. Drinks are on me if you'd ever visit Bangkok, Thailand. You know that
And Happy New Year!

You realize that since you removed the link, it is hard to get back to your main page from the page you linked in your first post? http://www.singaporedice.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=3

You now what to remove the links for "Jobs & Careers" and "Schools, Colleges, etc" on the main page? That is in the forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost template:

<a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$forum[forumid]">$forum[title]</a>

Oh yes, I do realize that. But being a non-tech and not a frequent poster on community forums myself (well, I occasionally post) I want my forum to be as user friendly as can be to make it easy for people like me, the "I only post when I need help and advice types".

So, what I want to do next is basically have "Forum Home" icon one can click on to the left of "Blogs" , "FAQ" , "Member List" , "Calander". And then one is automatically taken to to www.singaporedice.com/forum. Anymore pointers to get that sorted, Lynne?

God, I can't believe I am almost there and that soon I can officially reopen my forum for new members and old members to reregister and post...

Thank you very much Lynne!

Glad your forums are looking up, the great thing about Vbulletin is that you'll never really get your forums finished, you'll see something next week and you'll want that too.

Its a process of trial and error and seeing what works best for you and your members.

Heres to a Great New start to the year and your forum

Here's a good article on how to add links to your navbar - How To Add Additional Links To Your Navbar You should be able to add a Home link easily by following the instructions in there. Post back if you get stuck.

I am truly sorry. But I read the page 3 times and got stuck. I went into navbar_link in Style & Templates and got stuck.

There are some codes on the page but I am not sure what I should replace.

I don't know what your navbar template looks like since I don't have a blog so I don't have that link, but you want to add this right before your blog link:

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="http://www.singaporedice.com/forum/index.php" target="_blank">Home</a></td>
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="http://www.singaporedice.com/forum/blog.php" target="_blank">Blogs</a></td>

Hi

From Style Manager I clicked on Navigation / Breadcrumb Templates > navbar and then I looked everywhere in the page 3 times but didn't see it. Could I have been looking in the wrong location? Please advise further. Thank you so much.
