Drop Down Nav [Library Support]

[clares]

This is brilliant!! Thanks for this!

Quick Question, does this work with navigation images? I'm using the Classic ProBoards Menu on a couple of my skins and want to know if anyone had used them together with this successfully.

I don't think it would, because it uses the words to determine which one to drop down. I will install that plugin and find a way for it to work with it.

I can confirm it doesn't indeed work with it. I tried before haha.

I know there is already a plugin for this, but with that one you had to replace template variable, and it removed your old menu buttons. So I rewrote it. I used My Display Name's CSS and HTML. So credit goes to him for that. I just rewrote the javacript.

It pretty much works the same as his without the template replacing. Just place <a href="URL">TEXT</a> as many times in the SubNav box. You can also give the title of another menu button that you want the drop down button to go after. There's some CSS that goes along with it.

Drop Down Nav v1.0.6

The new version has a bit of a different set up. I added quite a bit with it. So here's some instructions.

How you add sublinks has changed.
You can add sub-sub links(that's as deep as it goes).
If you have a button with the same name then instead of adding a new button, it will add to the existing(this way if you were to user it for 'Profile' or 'Messages' you could still get the notifications bubble).
Different colors for different themes.
You can add a person's user id to the URL(good for profile stuff) with [#userid]

So the set up for adding new links is this:

NAME|URL
NAME|URL
NAME|URL

so an example for example of something I would do.

Awards List|/thread/283/award-list
Clan YouTube|http://youtube.com/ZSSclan
Clan Facebook|http://www.facebook.com/zombieslayersociety

Now if you want a sub-sub link then the format is this

NAME|URL|(SUB-SUB LINK NAME,SUB-SUB LINK URL)(SUB-SUB LINK NAME,SUB-SUB LINK URL)

Add as many (SUB-SUB LINK NAME,SUB-SUB LINK URL)as you many or as little as you want.

So an example for this for be.

Settings|/admin/settings|(Forum Settings,/admin/settings/forum)(Calender,/admin/settings/forum/calender)(News Feed,/admin/settings/forum/news)(Shoutbox,/admin/settings/forum/shoutbox)(CensoredWords,/admin/settings/forum/censors)(Reserved Names,/admin/settings/forum/reserved_names)
Themes|/admin/themes|(Theme Manager,/admin/themes/settings)(Easy Theme Creator,/admin/themes/easy)(Colors & Styles,/admin/themes/visual)

I hope that helps.

Find any issues then let me know.

I'm not completely following you on this. My knowledge on some of this stuff is lacking.
Can you help me out a little more?

Here is what I am wanting to do.

On the Navigation settings page, I can add a custom folder.
Is there a way to add a plugin so a pulldown window will show under the new menu with several different links under this menu?

Example:

Home     Forum      Calendar      Search      Members      Profile     Admin      Help     Links <----- Select This
                                                                                                                          url 1 <------ and I want drop downs
                                                                                                                          url 2

Forum URL: ksprepsports.proboards.com/

As you can see I've added the menu Track and Field Rankings.
I would like to have the menu just say Links with a pull down menu of several url's that my members can link to. ie Football, Basketball, Track, etc.

Thanks in advance,
KPS

Give it a name of 'Links', set the link with whatever link you want, then in the submenu box add this

NAME|URL
NAME|URL

Replace NAME with the text you want to show for the link. And replace URL with the URL you want them to be taken to.

Where is the submenu box?
I'm not seeing it.

[Shorty]

In the plugin settings. It's a huge box title 'Subnav Links'.

Okay, maybe I'm in the wrong place. I should probably surrender but I don't give up that easy.

Once I'm in the Admin page, Where do I need to go?

[Shorty]

Plugins > Manange > Drop Down Nav > Settings tab. Then that's how you go about setting up the plugin.

Okay I got it to work but when you select Links, the pulldown menu is behind. How can I bring it to front?
Can you go to my site to see what I'm talking about?

I have it set so only staff can see it, do I need to change that for you to see?

I really appreciate your help.

I need a link, and you need to make it so I can see it as a guest.
