Hi guys,

I've been installing afew mods to my board and the latest one is vbimagehost and i've got to the part where it says:

Code:

Step 4 ( template modification )

    * Edit the Navbar template and do the following:
      Find :
      <td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="faq.php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="5">$vbphrase[faq]</a></td>

So I've gone to my admin panel and took this path Styles & Templates> Style Manager> speedfire> edit templates> navigation /breadcrumb template> Navbar

But I can't find any of the Nav codes in that file to place the new lines! so any help would be great, I'm using vBulletin 3.5.4 or am i in the wrong section?

You are in the right place. If you can't find that, then you may have removed it, so pop the new code new to any code that looks something like that (but not nessessarily identical)

I'll dissect that bit of code for you.

Code:

      <td class="vbmenu_control">

This begins a new table cell, which contains one text link. Things like User CP, Members, etc.

Code:

<a href="faq.php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="5">$vbphrase[faq]</a>

This is a link to the FAQ. $vbphrase[faq] is a phrase. If you look in phrase manager, it actually just translates into "FAQ".

Code:

</td>

This closes that cell. Basically all you need to do is paste the code for the new option in an adjacent cell. You can put it next to whatever option you'd like. For example, if you want the new option next to "Member List" on the navbar, you'd put it after:

Code:

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="memberlist.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[members_list]</a></td>

Also, sometimes the editor can be a little fussy when it's using the find function. Instead of looking for the whole string, try just finding a part of it, such as:

Code:

$vbphrase[faq]</a></td>

Then looking to see if the rest of it matches up. As a side note, it's always very helpful to fill out your entire user profile here, especially your homepage. A lot of times one of the first things we'll do is go to your site and look at it to try and see if the problem is obvious. If you don't take the time to enter one, the only person missing out on it is you, since you end up waiting longer for us to help you.

Thanks guys, here is my contains of navbar as you will see there no listing of any of the faq links etc, no matter how short you search

This is a new board, so all I've done is download it and upload.

Try your header template instead. Some styles have the navigation in the header not in the navbar template.

slappy · #6 07-08-2006, 08:45 PM

It appears something didn't save correctly when you uploaded the file, OR you removed it before you saved it and uploaded it. Here's what's in the 3.5.4 default navbar between

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
