Run "Update Counters" located on your downloads.php page in the navigation area

I love this mod, and have a question. I would like to add a graphic to the page, but can't seem to find where to add it in. I'd like it in this box, replacing the word navigation.

Navigation
Main | Category Tree | Stats | Search | Add | My Files | Manage Files | Update Counters

Thank you!

That's a vB Phrase, so you can edit it using AdminCP -> Languages & Phrases
The phrase variable of it is ecdownloads_navigation

Or you can edit the downloads_wrapper_none, downloads_wrapper_side and downloads_wrapper_top templates, where it is used in ({$vbphrase['ecdownloads_navigation']}).

thanks!

Since I only want certain members to see the block on the side after they log in. Which I have done already. I was also wondering one of two things. In the Site Navigation module, is it possible to have one of the links inside of that module only viewable to a certain usergroup. If not, is there a way that I can make the header of the Downloads block a link to the downloads.php page?

For Example: I titled the Downloads module "File Cabinet". Is it possible to make the words File Cabinet" at the top of the module block into a link that goes to downloads.php. This way only those people with permissions to visit the File Cabinet may see the link to get there. This way I don't have to make a new button for the navbar at the top. Which actually, I would like to do but don't know how to edit the navbar buttons for usergroup permissions. Any of the solutions, would be great.

Edit: Nevermind on the link in the module. I figured it out. I just changed the title of the module to

"<a href="http://www.hswaves.com/forum/downloads.php">File Cabinet</a>"

and so it became a link. So now my next project is to make a button in the navbar appear only to specific usergroups. Anyone know how to do that?

That's not possible with vBadvanced CMPS.

Btw: please click the install link if you use this mod.

There's a better way to do this with vBa CMPS. Each module has a "Module Link" setting, where you can put such links

You can use template conditionals:

<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 6)">
If in group 6, show this...
<else />
...or else, show this.
</if>

Easier:

<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 6)">
If in group 6, show this...
</if>

Multiple groups:

<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 6, 9, 10)">
If in group 6, show this...
<else />
...or else, show this.
</if>
