So my menu is getting a bit out of control
how can move things around into more submenus
Like I don't know maybe make a menu called My Links and move the profile and pm into it
And a (not sure what to name it) menu and move the member list, buddy page, and staff list into it
and maybe a staff menu and move the moderator and admin menu to it
I'm assuming in the subs.php
everything that I try I keep getting HTTP ERROR 500
Have you looked at the Menu Editor mods?
Also you need to alter the subs.php to do this manually, if you post your subs.php we can help better.
Take one of the existing menus with submenus from the buttons array and substitute whatever you wany in it. Use unique names for each array.
'moderate' => array(
'title' => $txt['moderate'],
'href' => $scripturl . '?action=moderate',
'show' => $context['allow_moderation_center'],
'sub_buttons' => array(
'modlog' => array(
'title' => $txt['modlog_view'],
'href' => $scripturl . '?action=moderate;area=modlog',
'show' => !empty($modSettings['modlog_enabled']) && !empty($user_info['mod_cache']) && $user_info['mod_cache']['bq'] != '0=1',

nothing i've found in the mod list does this....there's mods to add menu items, rearrange menu items....but not to move them into submenus and such
so for instance in my subs.php the admin and moderator
'admin' => array(
'title' => $txt['admin'],
'href' => $scripturl . '?action=admin',
'show' => $context['allow_admin'],
'sub_buttons' => array(
'featuresettings' => array(
'title' => $txt['modSettings_title'],
'href' => $scripturl . '?action=admin;area=featuresettings',
'show' => allowedTo('admin_forum'),
),
'packages' => array(
'title' => $txt['package'],
'href' => $scripturl . '?action=admin;area=packages',
'show' => allowedTo('admin_forum'),
),
'errorlog' => array(
'title' => $txt['errlog'],
'href' => $scripturl . '?action=admin;area=logs;sa=errorlog;desc',
'show' => allowedTo('admin_forum') && !empty($modSettings['enableErrorLogging']),
),
'permissions' => array(
'title' => $txt['edit_permissions'],
'href' => $scripturl . '?action=admin;area=permissions',
'show' => allowedTo('manage_permissions'),
'is_last' => true,
),
),
),
'moderate' => array(
'title' => $txt['moderate'],
'href' => $scripturl . '?action=moderate',
'show' => $context['allow_moderation_center'],
'sub_buttons' => array(
'modlog' => array(
'title' => $txt['modlog_view'],
'href' => $scripturl . '?action=moderate;area=modlog',
'show' => !empty($modSettings['modlog_enabled']) && !empty($user_info['mod_cache']) && $user_info['mod_cache']['bq'] != '0=1',
),
'poststopics' => array(
'title' => $txt['mc_unapproved_poststopics'],
'href' => $scripturl . '?action=moderate;area=postmod;sa=posts',
'show' => $modSettings['postmod_active'] && !empty($user_info['mod_cache']['ap']),
),
'attachments' => array(
'title' => $txt['mc_unapproved_attachments'],
'href' => $scripturl . '?action=moderate;area=attachmod;sa=attachments',
'show' => $modSettings['postmod_active'] && !empty($user_info['mod_cache']['ap']),

'reports' => array(
'title' => $txt['mc_reported_posts'],
'href' => $scripturl . '?action=moderate;area=reports',
'show' => !empty($user_info['mod_cache']) && $user_info['mod_cache']['bq'] != '0=1',
'is_last' => true,

),
),
instead of these being separate menu items, i'd like them to be one menu item and 2 submenus (with their own submenus)
these gives 500 error

'title' => 'Staff Links',
thanks for the correction, but still gives 500 error
It's in the 'moderate' array but can't find it, and gotta go.
Post your Subs.php up so we can take a look at the whole kaboodle. :)
thanks
I tired but just keep getting 500 errors
Try this one (back up the existing one, just in case).
well that half way worked.... no 500 error but also no submenu for the admin or moderator menus.....
That looks weird. It shouldn't display the button title twice if it's only defined once in the array. Is that running the exact file I attached?
Ok, just tried code straight from the file I attached, on my test site. Works perfectly. :D
What have you done to my nice shiny code?
I'm back. Try this. Make sure you've removed the original admin and moderate arrays.
bwahahaha Iz dids nuffin
erm it's probably either the alternative menu mod thingie or the working top level for drop down links mod
my menu's just does that :laugh:
on a drop down, the first listing is the original menu for some strange reason....

unfortunately same issue, no submenus for admin/mod
and apparently the rest of my menus disappeared....
You'll have to remove the mods to make this work.
Yup. Kill mods first (I noticed you weren't using their stuff for actual buttons yet). See if nice shiny code works without mods in the way (I know it does). Can proceed from there, if you still want menu mods (may require body armour and pointy sticks).
Did you end up getting this to work? It's all just bog standard button arrays, so it should work. In fact it should be easy.
Was thinking about the mods too. Really, as long as they don't bork the standard menu buttons they shouldn't bork this custom one either. The only reason they might (or should) is if you were trying to use the same array name for two different buttons. An example would be if you left the default admin button while trying to throw in this custom one too.
'sub_buttons' => array(
'admin' => array(
You can use 'sub_buttons' => array( as often as you like, but you can only use 'admin' => array( once in the whole menu.
There are other buttons like the 'help' button and from other mods that add buttons to the menu that you can set it from show=> true to false. It alleviates the menu mumble jumble. You can still use these buttons on a side block if you wish. Help, Search, Calendar, Members
Subs.php near the bottom. 3/4 of the way
sorry just getting back to this...it didn't work on the other site, and too lazy to remove all the menu mods installed :p
but tried this on another site without any menu mods installed and got it working (a lot of trial and error on some parts)
thank you for the help :)

how can I set up a side block? I don't use portals, don't much care for the looks....but a block on the right side for some menu options might be nice...
now I just need to get my brain functioning to come up with "cute" menu titles to organize things into
right now I've managed to get
a staff link which has the admin and moderator links in it
a market place which has the classifieds and auctions links in it
a user menu which has the profile, pm and logout links in it
now to figure out what to do with
help, calendar, search and directory links
debating to get rid of the search link since there is a search bar in the header
er just ran into a problem
moving the logout into the user menu breaks it....if I try to log out I get
Session verification failed. Please try logging out and back in again, and then try again.

Javascript problem, perhaps? The logging stuff requires javascript to work properly, so if you moved the button but haven;t called the js in the right place you'd get an error.
well i have no idea then :P :laugh:
wouldn't the javascript still apply?
All I'm doing is moving it in the menu to a submenu
(hm ok, that may be the issue....now to figure out how to fix that)
