nav bar

How do you alter the length of a nav bar to add an extra button please
i am using the theme helios-multi

[kat]

Helios isn't as easy to make a new button for, as other themes, coz they're all graphics.

If you tell me what the button's for and post the theme's index.template.php file, I'll see if I can do it, for you.

That having been said, you can add the actual button by going to admin>current theme (Assuming you're using Helios) and add it, there.

You'll just need to make the graphic, then.

In Helios's index.template.php, find this:

Code Select Expand

        // Is the user allowed to administrate at all? ([admin])
        if ($context['allow_admin'])
                echo '<td><a href="', $scripturl, '?action=admin">', ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/' . $context['user']['language'] . '/admin.gif" alt="' . $txt[2] . '" style="margin: 0px 0;" border="0" />' : $txt[2]), '</a></td>';


Immediately after that, add this:

Code Select Expand

        // The [arcade]!
                echo '<td><a href="', $scripturl, '?action=arcade">', ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/' . $context['user']['language'] . '/arcade.gif" alt="' . $txt['arcade'] . '" style="margin: 0px 0;" border="0" />' : $txt['arcade']), '</a></td>';

Place the attached image into Helios's "images/english" directory and you should be OK.

Keep a copy of the original file, as a backup, just in case.

ther take alook

[kat]

Hmmm...

That image I attached, did you put it in the "english" directory, inside the "images" directory? (Phew!)

If so, try sticking it just in "images".

By the way... If you want to get rid of that "My Community" rubbish, go to Admin>Server settings, scroll down to "Forum Title" and change it to whatever you want.

I made mine blank.
