modding the navbar

[Lynne]

Well, you are giving me the source code. I wanted to see the template. You were supposed to get the template name out of the source code and then post that template. However, seeing the full source code allowed me to find the template name myself, it is the header template. So, you need to post the header template here for us to see what is going on with your links.

OK, now we are getting somehwhere. I will show you what to do with the memberlist one and I'm sure it is similar for the others.

Here is the line in the code for the memberlist:

 <td width="78" height="34"  class="css_nav"><a href="memberlist.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[vb_members_list]</a></td>

See how it calls the phrase "vb_members_list"? You need to Search in Phrases for that variable (Languages & Phrases > Search in Phrases > enter phrase name in top box > check Phrase Variable Name Only and hit Find) The phrase will come up, hit Edit and change the name to whatever you want. Alternately, change that phrase to "$vbphrase[members_list]" which is the default vbulletin phrase and it should work.

Find each of the terms you are missing, search for the phrase and edit it and you should have it working.

lol yeah i see how to di it now and i see what the problem was.
I couldn't find a template called vb_members_list so it was obviously trying to call a template that wasn't there. I have changed it to the default as you suggested and is now perfect.


thanks very much for your helpful and sppedy answers.
