How to add navbar under banner?

[Nkay]

Hi guys,

Not sure whether this is in the correct forum or not but i was just wondering if anyone knows how to add the nav bar directly underneath a banner rather than the default position of the navbar?

If anyone knows how to do this then it'll be greatly appreciated.

I've seen it done on lots of forums but i just don't know how to do it on my own forum.

Thanks in advance.

go to navbar template

find this:-

<!-- nav buttons bar -->
<div class="tborder" style="padding:$stylevar[cellspacing]px; border-top-width:0px">
	<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
	<tr align="center">
		<if condition="$show['member']">
			<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="usercp.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[user_cp]</a></td>
		</if>
		<if condition="$show['registerbutton']">

Thanks alot mate. That's exactly what i wanted I don't suppose you know how to make an image appear next to the private messages if a user has a new pm?

For example: If a user has a new PM, a message icon will flash and if they don't have any new PM's, the message icon will not flash.

Thanks alot

I don't suppose you know

lol

that would probably be a blinking.gif image just like vB.org has

(This is just a DEMO, do not copy it.. it belongs to vB.org)


hopefully.. you'll have to wrap this image in the condition below:-

<if condition="$bbuserinfo['pmunread']">
<img src="blinking.gif">
</if>

the code would be somewhat like this in navbar template !! adjust the positioning as desired ..

That's great!

Thanks very much for your help
