Where/How to add links?

[SPEEDKILLZ]

On my skin i have buttons at the bottom but cannot figure out how to link them to my accounts? This is the code in my custom footer template

<a href="#"><img src="images/tf_ideal/social/facebook.png" alt="Facebook" /></a>
<a href="#"><img src="images/tf_ideal/social/twitter.png" alt="Twitter" /></a>
<a href="#"><img src="images/tf_ideal/social/youtube.png" alt="YouTube" /></a>

Where would i add the links?

Change the # inside href="#" to your social media link or page.

So for facebook make it .... href="faceboom.com/YOURPAGENAMEHERE" instead of href="#"

Thanks but that gives me a "no directory" error

On the Facebook page? Did you put your actual links in there ?

Tried the youtube one. Yes took out the # and put in url to youtube page

And no luck? The link you're posting starts with "http" correct ? You could try adding a target="_blank" <a href="xxxxx" target="_blank"> Opening in a new window may help.

I have the same skin.

You are editing these in footer_Column 4 right?

<a href="https://www.facebook.com/YOURPAGE"target="_blank"><img src="images/tf_ideal/social/facebook.png" alt="Our Fanpage" /></a>

Go to your facebook or fanpage . and use it in place of YOURPAGE above.

I would like it to open a separate window to keep members on forum

Ok.

For example. Your facebook is not working correctly.

I am going to assume this is your Facebook page.

https://www.facebook.com/GlobalHax

So, open your style manager. Go to the ideal skin and select edit templates.

The template you are looking for footer_column_4

Scroll to the bottom.

In your facebook link put this:

<a href="https://www.facebook.com/GlobalHax"target="_blank"><img src="images/tf_ideal/social/facebook.png" alt="Our Fanpage" /></a>

For twitter - put this:

<a href="https://twitter.com/ChronicGamerz"target="_blank"><img src="images/tf_ideal/social/twitter.png" alt="GlobalHax Twitter" /></a>

And finally for youtube....

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/ChronicGamerz"target="_blank"><img src="images/tf_ideal/social/youtube.png" alt="GlobalHax Youtube Channel" /></a>

That will link your social stuff and open in a new window.

While you are at it - fix the VSA top 10 stats by:

Either trim down some of the titles or play with the options.

You can also go to the Valter templates - and look for vsa_topstats_stats

Find this line: (It is right near the top)

<div class="blockhead" style="height:24px;padding-{vb:stylevar right}:{vb:math {vb:stylevar padding}/2-1};font-weight:bold">

change the 16 to 24 - that may help with the alignment issue you are having with the top 10 stats.

You did a very nice job on your logo. I like it.

Good luck.
