When i put the code in header, it makes my forum all weird. Everything on it goes except for the background colour. Im using 3.6.8 btw. Help would be greatly appreciated.
1. Download the file "Menu.zip" via the blue download link.
2. Upload the two files "ssm.js" and "ssmItems.js" to your forum directory.
3. Add the code snippet on that page into your "Header" template i.e.
Find:
Code:
<!-- Header -->
OR @ the top of your header before anything else...
ADD:
Code:
<style type="text/css">
<!--
A.ssmItems:link {color:black;text-decoration:none;}
A.ssmItems:hover {color:black;text-decoration:none;}
A.ssmItems:active {color:black;text-decoration:none;}
A.ssmItems:visited {color:black;text-decoration:none;}
//-->
</style>
<SCRIPT SRC="ssm.js" language="JavaScript1.2">
//Dynamic-FX slide in menu v6.5 (By maXimus, http://maximus.ravecore.com/)
//Updated July 8th, 03' for doctype bug
//For full source, and 100's more DHTML scripts, visit http://www.dynamicdrive.com
</SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT SRC="ssmItems.js" language="JavaScript1.2"></SCRIPT>
Now, all the customization is done via editing "ssmItems.js" And simply follow the instructions Dynamic Drive has provided! After your done just re-upload the file and presto-chango.... Side Menu
- Links, view the current ones... copy & paste to achieve more etc.
- Check the attributes out and modify as you see fit to get different colors etc... the X/Y Offset plays a role in positioning etc.
- I have NEVER gotten the image <img> thing-a-ma-bob to work... if you do PM ASAP
I will leave that up for reference however it was not made by editing the Header Template so you can literally place it in any template to display where you want it!
Additionally you can tinker w/ the other file to achieve different effects but read DD's info and all should be good!
Hope that helps!
Please use the links I have provided, the author uploaded the menu.zip but it is against DD's Terms of Service / Use so therefor this should actually be a closed or deleted thread however I have put the CREDIT where it is due more so than the original author and followed all DD's guidelines for use SO we should technically be fine now IF you use the links I provided which has extra instructions to boot .
The two .js files are in the actual folder for your forum correct? MAKE sure they are in the same folder as your index.php !
AND you placed the code in the header template?
Besides that I just don't understand why it's not working, unless you want to give me access to your FTP and admincp to confirm but over a simple code like this I would not advise (Although I trust myself lol you know what I mean) but PM me.
