Forum Tools, Seach This Forum, etc menus not popping open after template mod

[SilentNoise]

I'm in the middle of a style build right now and have a question... here's the situation:

My site will have a highly customized header template and I'm removing the "$navbar" line from every template that would regularly use it
(I'm just replacing it with a <br />).

I haven't had a problem with anything up until I went clicking around and noticed that as soon as I remove "$navbar" from the FORUMDISPLAY template, my Forum Tools, Search This Forum, etc menus no long pop up when I click on them...... this is the one and only template that I'm having any issues with. As soon as I go into a thread, the Thread Tools, Search This Thread, etc menus work perfectly fine and I've removed the $navbar code from that template as well, so I don't get it.


If I put the $navbar line back into FORUMDISPLAY it'll work again, but that's not what I'm after.
Is there anything else I can do to get the Forum Tools menus to show up but still remove the navbar from the FORUMDISPLAY template?


BTW, I'm running vB v3.6.8 RC2

Never mind... figured it out. I think I've just been looking at code for too long at this point.



Left $navbar in the FORUMDISPLAY template and modded the navbar template instead.

Deleted most of the navbar template except for the code at the very end of it:

<!-- PAGENAV POPUP -->

    <div class="vbmenu_popup" id="pagenav_menu" style="display:none">
        <table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">
        <tr>
            <td class="thead" nowrap="nowrap">$vbphrase[go_to_page]</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td class="vbmenu_option" title="nohilite">
            <form action="$vboptions[forumhome].php" method="get" onsubmit="return this.gotopage()" id="pagenav_form">
                <input type="text" class="bginput" id="pagenav_itxt" style="font-size:11px" size="4" />
                <input type="button" class="button" id="pagenav_ibtn" value="$vbphrase[go]" />
            </form>
            </td>
        </tr>
        </table>
    </div>
