Hi, I have read all the different topics on adding links, and the manual. I am totally confused 

Can someone please help me and give me the code to paste to index.template.

Hi
*sidetrack*
I might be able to help since im about to work on a integration of SMF to a gallery (Gallery2 / Coppermine). Why is Coppermine your choice of gallery?

Byon,

You do know that oldiesman already did a bridge from SMF to Gallery2?

All I need is for plain, in english, instructions on how to add a menu link from smf to my intergrated coppermine!

Thanks

You need to edit the index.template.php file in the theme directory you are using. Download this and find :

Code Select Expand

// the [member] list button

BEFORE THIS ADD:

Code Select Expand

// Gallery
if ($context['user']['is_logged'])
echo ($current_action == 'coppermine' || $context['browser']['is_ie4']) ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $first . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '' , '
<td valign="top" class="maintab_' , $current_action == 'coppermine' ? 'active_back' : 'back' , '">
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=coppermine">' , $txt['Gallery'] , '</a>
</td>' , $current_action == 'coppermine' ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $last . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '';

Reupload this file and it should be visible when logged in.
Hope this helps.

Sorry but did not work! Nothing shows up in menu?

Yes thanks, I am not an expert but that much I know

Perhaps it is colliding with the smf gallery I have installed. I want to switch to coppermine when I can get the link to appear in the menu.
