No I didn't tell you to remove the help button I told you to COPY the help button code below itself and change the action and the text string.

[Bigguy]

Did you add the text line in the index.english.php file.

darn lol i didnt

now i added it to the modifications.english.php and added

//Arcade

$txt[1190] = 'Arcade',

and worked perfectly! thanks again mate!

just came a small curiosity to my mind...

how can i put a button and link it to a site like http://yourname.com [nofollow] and open in _blank type? can i do something like that into the navbar?

[Bigguy]

This is how you would do it on the default theme:

Code Select Expand

// Show a [new] button.
      echo ($current_action == 'newaction' || $context['browser']['is_ie4']) ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $first . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '' , '
            <td valign="top" class="maintab_' , $current_action == 'newaction' ? 'active_back' : 'back' , '">
               <a href="http://www.yourlinkhere.com">linktext</a>
            </td>' , $current_action == 'newaction' ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $last . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '';

replace:

http://www.yourlinkhere.com

with your link

and

linktext

With what you want shown for the link.

[Bigguy]

For your theme:

   // Show the [help] button.
   echo '
               <a href="http://www.yourlinkhere.com"' : '' , '>Linktext</a>&nbsp;|';

I THINK

so does that work on all themes?

thanks for the info buddy! learned a lot! this thing would help for all other mods!

[Bigguy]

This should work for your theme, not sure though if I have it right.

For your theme:

   // Show the [help] button.
   echo '
               <a href="http://www.yourlinkhere.com"' : '' , '>Linktext</a>&nbsp;|';

When I try to install the arcade I get this-
FTP Information Required-
Some of the files the package manager needs to modify are not writable. This needs to be changed by logging into FTP and using it to chmod or create the files and folders. Your FTP information may be temporarily cached for proper operation of the package manager.

I fill it out, but nothing happens,why?

Try this before installing the arcade,goto admin>packages>options>choose make all files writable and then install the arcade.

Then this comes out again-
Some of the files the package manager needs to modify are not writable. This needs to be changed by logging into FTP and using it to chmod or create the files and folders. Your FTP information may be temporarily cached for proper operation of the package manager.

I fill it out and nothing happens.

Help please.

geo32101: Try making a "temp" folder (no quotes) in the packages directory and chmodding it to 777

then try to re-install the arcade. See if that helps.

It doesnt let me make the folder.

If your hosting won't allow you to create a new directory then you need to contact your host...they may have your file ownership set incorrectly.

I can make folders,files, directories, and stuff but not that directory.

Go back to Bigguy's advice that you quoted above and try to re-install the arcade.
