Can you upload the index.template.php file of that theme here so I can take a look?

[ViewFromTheBoundary]

Whats the easiest way to do that?

Here you go http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=442036.0

[Mick.]

Awesome. Gimmie sometime to test it and ill get back to you.

[ViewFromTheBoundary]

Thanks!

[RustyBarnacle]

Very cool idea.  I had to add it manually to my theme but now that it's done I can't wait to populate it.  Will have to do after I install the wiki tomorrow so I can put all those links that I want to have some focus into a wiki header. 

Thanks!

[RustyBarnacle]

This looks so awesome on my site.  Thank you very much.

[ViewFromTheBoundary]

Any luck with the testing?

You know, you could make this compatible with all themes by making it a template layer rather than a theme edit.

Create two functions, template_fmenu_above and template_fmenu_below; the first one does nothing (it just has to exist), the second one outputs this.

Just before the obExit() call in index.php check that $_REQUEST['xml'] isn't set and that $_REQUEST['action'] isn't helpadmin or viewsmfile, and if it isn't those things, $context['template_layers'][] = 'fmenu';

Install it anyways since its only 1 edit in index.template.php

Then open the index.template.php file and...

Find:

Code Select Expand

echo '
</div>
';

// Show the "Powered by" and "Valid" logos, as well as the copyright. Remember, the copyright must be somewhere!


Add before:

I know

[Mick.]

Thing is, i havent had a chance to experiment with hooks.

[Arantor]

When I suggested it 2 years ago, I wasn't suggesting hooks - I was simply suggesting direct file edits to the Sources files. Doing it with hooks is just the icing on the cake.

Thanks that worked well!

awesome. Nice site too!

[Rain Forest]

Thank you!

Is there a way to open the links in another tab?

[peterwaalker]

Thanks for this wonderful work.
When i tried to install it, i encountered test failures. I want to know whether i should continue with installation.

Also i dont want many up to 25 links like the one i saw. Is there a way i can manually reduce it. Because i want only 5 links
Always thankful sir
