[1.1] How to add tabs to Core (NDT)?

[marinelife]

hey I am trying to link to a outside website
I edited the text to this
   // Show the [aggreement] button...
      echo ($current_action == 'agreement' || $context['browser']['is_ie4']) ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $first . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '' , '
            <td valign="top" class="maintab_' , $current_action == 'agreement' ? 'active_back' : 'back' , '">
               <a href='http://www.westernohioreef.com/other/agreement.htm'</a>
            </td>' , $current_action == 'agreement' ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $last . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '';

I get this error
parse error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ',' or ';'

What do I need to remove to make it work

[JayBachatero]

You need to use " not '

   // Show the [aggreement] button...
      echo ($current_action == 'agreement' || $context['browser']['is_ie4']) ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $first . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '' , '
            <td valign="top" class="maintab_' , $current_action == 'agreement' ? 'active_back' : 'back' , '">
               <a href="http://www.westernohioreef.com/other/agreement.htm">Agreement</a>
            </td>' , $current_action == 'agreement' ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $last . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '';

thanks that worked, but any way to split them to a second line

[JayBachatero]

You want to add a second line of tabs?

-JayBachatero

[marinelife]

Yeah I have a good amount and tabs I need

[JayBachatero]

That I don't know how to do.  Sorry.

-JayBachatero

[marinelife]

that is ok, I just added a few main ones for now, I will have to play around or maybe someone will know. Thanks for the help you did give!

[JayBachatero]

You're welcome.  There is a topic around here with a version that does sub tabs almost like you want it.  Look around and you will find it.

Is this procedure different when I want to place a tab before the Home tab? I can place them just fine after Home but the one I'd like before Home doesn't show up.

If it would be the same thing I probably just screwed up somewhere and I need to review my code, but looking at:

Code Select Expand

if (in_array($context['current_action'], array('search', 'admin', 'calendar', 'profile', 'mlist', 'register', 'login', 'help', 'pm')))
I get the feeling that I'd need to do something different when I want to place a tab before Home. would you happen to know what I need to do for that?

[JayBachatero]

Well the in the line you provided you can put the action anywhere always in this format though 'home', To place the link before home just place it above this line // Show the [home] button.

Sorry, how do you put something in the menu which is formed of two words?

for example I wanted to write MY HOMEPAGE, but got an error because of the space between the two words.

[haktanir2]

And where can you define where the $txt[103]  (or whatever number) should be?

[JayBachatero]

Try this

// Show the [chat] button.

echo ($current_action=='homepage' || $context['browser']['is_ie4']) ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $first . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '' , '

<td valign="top" class="maintab_' , $current_action == 'homepage' ? 'active_back' : 'back' , '">

<a href="LINK TO HOMEPAGE">MY HOMEPAGE</a>

</td>' , $current_action == 'homepage' ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $last . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '';

in Modifications.english.php  you pick what you want to add if its text it MUST be in ' '

[haktanir2]

Thanks I'll try that.

[haktanir2]

Thank you very much, it worked.

[JayBachatero]

You're welcome.  Glad to hear it worked for you.

External Page activation:
the difficult way to do it in ssi:

the ssi most be called at the top
<?php require_once('SSI.php'); ?>

end the css is need for the tabs

<? echo '
   <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="', $settings['theme_url'], '/style.css?rc2" />'; ?>

Now the tabs (edit: out of the index.template.php):

copy from

Code Select Expand

line 470 $current_action = 'home';

until

Code Select Expand

line 588 </table>';

past it in the destination file. dont forget to put the <?php at the begining and the ?> at the end of the code. (Note this code is a replacement for <? ssi_menubar(); ?>)

To make a tab active change this code at the top:

Code Select Expand

$current_action = 'home';

Change home to the tab you wand.



I hope there is simpler way of doing this
To bad this doesnt work

Code Select Expand

<?php $current_action = 'home'; ?>
<?php require_once('SSI.php'); ?>
<?php echo '<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="', $settings['theme_url'], '/style.css?rc2" />'; ?>
<?php ssi_menubar(); ?>
