6 Custom buttons / tabs and menu's (upto 4)

[Ozzie]

to see the buttons with that mod you have got to set permissions for each membergroup in admin




Btw if you had only read the previous posts in this thread you would have found your solution

[MrMike]

You'll need to set the permissions under members within the admin area.

hi
I installed a custom button, it works, but only the admin can see the costumized button, a normal user can't see it, and I don't know why? can u help me please?
(I use SMF 2.0)

I've one question.... - maybe this is asked/answered but I did not fight through all pages...
Would be nice to get a solution for that...

Is it possible to open a set link (for button 5 for example) in a new window? - I've implemented a shoutbox which should open in a new window.

It works but can you please update this mod to include the position of the new button? Currently, when adding a new button using your modification, the button always appears to the right of the "Help" button, in the top forum menu. I would like to add new buttons after the "Members" button. How to do that? Please add this crucial option - it would also be a great opportunity to make fix it for 2.0.2 as your mod currently states full compatibility only with 2.0RC3.

Thanks in advance and Merry Christmas!

Hi.
My site is multilingual but all names of button is identical for all.
How can I change the mode to show the different names for the users?

Not easy to accomplish, and definitely not possible with this modification.

I love the idea of this mod and have installed your ver .5 on my SMF ver 2.02.

I added a main button and it works great, but then I tried to add a button with a menu.

I left the main URL blank and added 2 menu items with links.

When I hover or click on the menu button nothing happens.

Am I doing this wrong?

how do i ad the other buttons

[TheListener]

how do i ad the other buttons

what is it you are trying to do exactly?

[Inti31]

This mod works fine - I updated it for myself - now I've 8 custom buttons with up to 8 submenus (just for 3 of it)...

one question

Is it possible to re-arrange the admin section?
in original it looks like the 1st shot and I would like to have it like the 2nd shot..
i only want the url next to the title/name of button instead of seeing the url input line below

possible?

How can I add more sub buttons past the first 4? Adding buttons separately using the tutorial wasn't working for me, so I have to go through this mod.

I have the same issue but after reading this entire thread realize I use a core based theme....the author of this mod has stated a few times in the 12+ pages of posts it will not work as is with a core based theme. I also saw he said he uses or used a core based theme and has done his own edits to make it work I believe.

If you are using a core based theme, then it is probably the issue you are suffering from....... it won't work besides adding the initial buttons..no hovering.

Guide us........... How u upgrade it........

this is not really a big deal... - just a lot of extra lines...

have a look to the 6custombuttons05.xml
in original you find this:

Code Select Expand


<file name="$sourcedir/ManagePermissions.php">
<operation>
<search position="before"><![CDATA[
'profile_remote_avatar' => array(false, 'profile', 'use_avatar'),
]]></search>
<add><![CDATA[
            'custombuttons_showbutton1' => array(false, 'custombuttons_showbuttons', 'custombuttons_showbuttons'),
            'custombuttons_showbutton2' => array(false, 'custombuttons_showbuttons', 'custombuttons_showbuttons'),
            'custombuttons_showbutton3' => array(false, 'custombuttons_showbuttons', 'custombuttons_showbuttons'),
            'custombuttons_showbutton4' => array(false, 'custombuttons_showbuttons', 'custombuttons_showbuttons'),
            'custombuttons_showbutton5' => array(false, 'custombuttons_showbuttons', 'custombuttons_showbuttons'),
            'custombuttons_showbutton6' => array(false, 'custombuttons_showbuttons', 'custombuttons_showbuttons'),
]]></add>
</operation>
</file>

just extend it:

Code Select Expand


            'custombuttons_showbutton7' => array(false, 'custombuttons_showbuttons', 'custombuttons_showbuttons'),
            'custombuttons_showbutton8' => array(false, 'custombuttons_showbuttons', 'custombuttons_showbuttons'),
]]></add>
</operation>
</file>


so you have to do for each file is named in that xml...
It is simple copy and paste and then just modify the button numbers...

If you upload your MOD............ I can also use it..............

It is not allowed to attach mods are created by the mod author without his permission.
Also - all my mods (like this) are fully customized for german-utf8 - so you have a bigger part to tranlate everything as when you copy and paste the lines and set just the numbers.
and, by the way - this is good training to see how smf works..

What do you edit to add more dropdown options instead of just more buttons?
