Top pages

[Anna]

A general question: Is it possible to create a page at the top of the site? Next to the "Topsite", Register new site" and the control panel? If yes, how do I go about it?

yup, 2 ways to do this.

1) manually add the link, open wrapper.html and find the 3 current links and add yours as illustrated below:

         <div id="topmenu">
            <ul>
            <li><a href="{$list_url}/">{$lng->main_menu_rankings}</a></li>
            <li><a href="{$list_url}/{$url_helper_a}join{$url_tail}">{$lng->main_menu_join}</a></li>
            <li><a href="{$list_url}/{$url_helper_a}user_cpl{$url_tail}">{$lng->main_menu_user_cp}</a></li>
            <li><a href="http://YourLinkURLhere">Your link text</a></li>

the second alternative is to use the "menu manager" instead:

open wrapper.html and replace this:

            <ul>
             <li><a href="{$list_url}/">{$lng->main_menu_rankings}</a></li>
             <li><a href="{$list_url}/{$url_helper_a}join{$url_tail}">{$lng->main_menu_join}</a></li>
             <li><a  href="{$list_url}/{$url_helper_a}user_cpl{$url_tail}">{$lng->main_menu_user_cp}</a></li>
            </ul>

with:

{$menu-0}

then login to your admin, and choose "manage menus" under "custom pages".

Next click "Create New Menu", and enter a name for this menu, perhaps "top"

Next click "Create New Menu Item" and add the 3 links you removed earlier, if your using clean URL's they would be:
Rankings - http://yourdomain.com
Add Your Site - http://yourdomain.com/join/
User CP - http://yourdomain.com/user_cpl/

if your not using clean URLs:
Rankings - http://yourdomain.com
Add Your Site - http://yourdomain.com/index.php?a=join
User CP - http://yourdomain.com/index.php?a=user_cpl

now you can easily add and arrange items in this menu from the admin panel.


if you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask.


*I'm hoping in the "Gold release" to have this menu moved into the menu manager, just need to sort out a method of dealing with the clean URL's settings.
