Please Note:

templates/fusionbb/header _left.php is the header template included and used when you have a left sidebar.

templates/fusionbb/footer _right.php is the template file included and used when you have a right sidebar.


templates/fusionbb/header _both.php is the template included and used for the main portal.


Step 1)

In

includes/common.php

find:



// Setup the main index link list($tabopen,$tabclose) = $this -> createNavTab('mainindex') ; $template->setTemplate Var("MAININDEX","$tabopen <a href='{$conf['portal_url' ]}/index.php?$FBB_SESS'>{$lang_ str['MAIN']}</a>$ta bclose");


Add your nav link as such:


$this->createNavTabSub ('mymenu',"<a href='{$conf['home_url']} /myscript1.php?$FBB_SESS'>MENUOPT ION1TITLE</a>"); $this->createNavTabSub ('mymenu',"<a href='{$conf['home_url']} /myscript2.php?$FBB_SESS'>MENUOPT ION2TITLE</a>"); $this->createNavTabSub ('mymenu',"<a href='{$conf['home_url']} /myscript3.php?$FBB_SESS'>MENUOPT ION3TITLE</a>"); list($tabopen,$tabclose) = $this->createNavTab('m ymenu'); $template->setTemplate Var("MYMENU","$tabopen{MY MENUTITLE}$tabclose");



Now, from the above, you get two variables:


MYMENU and mymenu


Step 2)


In

templates/header_left.php

find:

<!--MEMBERS-->

and under it place:

<!--MYMENU-->

and also find:

<!--members_sub-->

and place below it:

<!--mymenu_sub-->


That will create a menu with a submenu with those items listed below it.



If you just want to add a link and not a menu:


in common.php


list($tabopen,$tabclose) = $this -> createNavTab('MYLINK');
$template->setTemplate Var("MYLINK","$tabopen< ;a href='{$conf['portal_url' ]}/mypage.php?$FBB_SESS'>MYLINKT ITLE</a>$tabclose") ;


and then in header_left.php


find:


<!--MEMBERS-->


and under it place:


<!--MYLINK-->


and also find:


<!--members_sub-->


and place below it:


<!--mylink_sub-->


  • To line things up correctly, you need to make sure you placed the submenu item in the correct location in the header_left.php (if using left sidebar, for instance).



In other words, find:


<!--MEMBERS-->


and place your menu there as so:


<!--MEMBERS-->
<!--MYLINK-->


and then find (also in header_left.php):


<!--members_sub-->


and place your submenu there:


<!--members_sub-->
<!--mylink_sub-->


This is how it lines up correctly: for instance, if you put


<!--mylink_sub-->
<!--members_sub-->


the mylink submenu would line up under members menu and the members submenu would line up under the My Link menu.
