[RC3] Moving Main Menu Buttons

[LHW]

Can someone tell me how to move a level 1 Main Menu item to be a level 2 item under a different Main Menu item?

e.g.  How would I move Calendar under Profile, or something along those lines?

Thanks!

I'm having problems as well I've found this topic http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=261880.0
And I manage to create a new tab without a hitch but when I try adding a submenu using the code, I always get a blank page I copy pasted direct, as well as customising the links to my forum

Here's where I succeeded

Code Select Expand

'Misc' => array(
'title' => 'Misc',
'href' => 'http://shoujo-crusade.net/forum/index.php?action=forum',
'show' =>  true,
'sub_buttons' => array(



),
),

And when I copy paste directly like this

Code Select Expand


'Misc' => array(
'title' => 'Misc',
'href' => 'http://shoujo-crusade.net/forum/index.php?action=forum',
'show' =>  true,
'sub_buttons' => array(
               'view' => array(
                  'title' => $txt['calendar_menu'],
                  'href' => $scripturl . '?action=calendar',
                  'show' => allowedTo('calendar_post'),
               ),
               'post' => array(
                  'title' => $txt['calendar_post_event'],
                  'href' => $scripturl . '?action=calendar;sa=post',
                  'show' => allowedTo('calendar_post'),
              ),
            ),
         ),

Or changing the urls and titles and all, it gives me a white page

Thanks!

all the buttons are found in the Subs.php in Sources, look for $buttons = array(

level 2 as you call it are found in the 'sub_buttons' => array(

for example i moved the Help and Search under the Forums Menu like this

Code Select Expand

'forum' => array(
'title' => empty($txt['sp-forum']) ? 'Forum' : $txt['sp-forum'],
'href' => $scripturl . ($modSettings['sp_portal_mode'] == 1 && empty($context['disable_sp']) ? '?action=forum' : ''),
'show' => in_array($modSettings['sp_portal_mode'], array(1, 3)) && empty($context['disable_sp']),
'sub_buttons' => array(
            'help' => array(
            'title' => $txt['help'],
            'href' => $scripturl . '?action=help',
            'show' => true,
        ),
'search' => array(
'title' => $txt['search'],
'href' => $scripturl . '?action=search',
'show' => $context['allow_search'],
            'is_last' => true,
                    ),
              ),
        ),

So I tried that code you gave. The button didn't even come out 

[deansmar]

then i would say your not using the Default theme...

Thank you!  This seems to be exactly what I was looking for.  I'll look at it in-depth when I get home from work in a few hours.

[!RFAN]

you can use a mod.. Menu Order

[LHW]

Yes, I looked at that the other day.  It seems to only work with Level 1 items.  e.g. While I could move Calendar to be immediately after Profile in the Main Menu (and before My Messages), I could not move it under Profile.

If it DOES allow you to move Level 1 items to Level 2, then I completely missed how to do that.

[!RFAN]

can u attach ur subs.php here
i can try to make it possible...

[LHW]

If I run into problems I will.  Right now I'm at work, and won't be able to try this for several hours yet.  If I can get it to work, I'll mark this topic as solved. 

[libra_86930]

then i would say your not using the Default theme...

Yes, but the support forum there told me to ask here.

Attached my subs here. I want to put calender and Search under the Misc tabs. Anyone help?

I'm using inferno by dziner studio

[LHW]

Well, I managed to MOVE everything the way I wanted, but then it kicked off a bunch of template errors related to active_button.  Basically, once I moved them, it wasn't highlighting the parent button, and causing an error.

The errors looked similar to this:

8: Undefined index: active_button
File: /{Server Path}/Themes/default/Errors.template.php (body_above sub template - eval?)
Line: 450

Any ideas on how to resolve these errors / make the new parent / Level 1 button the active / highlighted one?

[!RFAN]

y dont u try this

[libra_86930]

Okay I got it to work

Code Select Expand

//Start tab Mod


'Misc' => array(
'title' => 'Misc',

'show' =>  true,

                      'Search' => array(
                  'title' => 'Search',
                  'href' => 'http://shoujo-crusade.net/testforum/index.php?action=search',
                  'show' => true,
),


                      'Calender' => array(
                  'title' => 'Calender',
                  'href' => 'http://shoujo-crusade.net/testforum/index.php?action=calendar',
                  'show' => true,
),


                      'Shop' => array(
                  'title' => 'Shop',
                  'href' => 'http://shoujo-crusade.net/testforum/index.php?action=shop',

),

),
//End tab Mod


The misc is set to my forum default so you can actually put whatever link you want there.Misc being the menu button, the search, calender and shop is obviously the submenu.

To keep adding sub menus, Just add

Code Select Expand

                      'Shop' => array(
                  'title' => 'Shop',
                  'href' => 'http://shoujo-crusade.net/testforum/index.php?action=shop',
                  'show' => true,
),

And replace the Shop part with whatever name you want then replace with your link at the href. Don't forget to put both title and link within the ' ' Or it'll give you a blank page which it gave me countless times when I forgot or missed it

Place it just after

                  'show' => true,
),

Of the previous submenu.

Hope this helps.

There's got be something else I'm missing, because all I'm doing is moving the existing buttons to be nested under other ones...I'm not trying to create a new one for them.

This is the original code from my Subs.php file:

Marking this as solved, as it looks like the Dream Portal Team were kind enough to create a Mod to fix the Error Log issue when moving the Main Menu buttons: $grandchildbutton 'is_active' fix.

Thanks guys!
