im new to the world of web design etc i was thinking wouldnt it be great if there was an option in the admin tab to add buttons to the nave bar that could be linked to pages on external websites/simpleportal pages?

If you post your questions about them, I'd be happy to answer. Not sure I have the time right now to do any more video's. But I can take a look at your code and stuff. If you have the theme up, post a link and I can try to see what you problem is.

Preferably in another topic though, as this isn't a board for theme support. :)

As IchBin said, Menu Editor Lite mostly does that, although it's really a poor example of what should be included for handling the menu. I am reluctant to spend the time necessary to finish the full version with the expansive feature set and performance increases, but hopefully I'll get to it soon.

This is already in the "next smf discussions" board, so this is a "duplicate". Moving.

Aiutateci ad aiutarvi: spiegate bene il vostro problema: no, "non funziona" non è una spiegazione!!
