2nd Navigation Tree at bottom of page

[xLc]

Is it possible to have a 2nd navigation tree at the bottom of the page, so when you've read a post you can navigate without scrolling to the top?


Thanks

Read this whole reply before doing it.. Cos there's 2 here.

Indeed you can. Admin > Themes > Layout Templates > Forum Wrapper

Find this on lines 49 - 53.
$[participated_threads_link]

<div id="navigation-tree">
$[navigation.tree]
</div>

Copy it (don't erase it), and then scroll down and paste that bit of coding onto a new line, line 67 (so that it's just below $[content] but above $[shoutbox].
This means it will show below the quick reply and the "related stories" table.

The above will also show on ALL pages. If you want it to only be on the threads at bottom of the page, do the first part (copy that part of coding, and do not erase it still).
Now go back to Layout Templates, but this time select Thread. Which line depends if you want it above, or below the quick reply...


Above the quick reply:
Line 29
Below quick reply:
Line 30

And voila. It's that easy =D

Thats great thanks,

Why doesnt it 'drop down' like the top one?

Also, how would I have it on all pages but above the stats and info on the Home page and above post reply on a thread?

Thanks

I just tried and honestly have no clue why it doesn't drop down, since we've moved the whole nav tree, so i am confused for that too
Brian, any idea why it doesn't drop down after doing the above?

As for having it above everything (Info Center, Quick Reply) you'd have to do it manually. Just copy and paste. It's easy though, it literally takes a minute or less.


$[participated_threads_link]

<div id="navigation-tree">
$[navigation.tree]
</div>

The above is the code we're using so you don't have to keep going back for it in case you remove it off your clipboard for any reason.

Where we will add:
- Home Page to be above the Info center.
- Thread List page, above the legend/stats, below the threads table
- Post list, above the quick reply

Let me know if there is anywhere else you want it..

Home Page: Admin > Themes > Layout Templates > Home
Add it to line 11 so it looks like:
Quick Note: I have added a <br/> (line break) to the start and end of the code, so that there's a bit more of a gap. You can even use a couple. I just dislike personally the tables looking too close together lol.

</div>
{/foreach}
<br/>$[participated_threads_link]

<div id="navigation-tree">
$[navigation.tree]
</div><br/>
{if $[legend]}
<div class="container legend">


Thread List: Admin > Themes > Layout Templates > Board
Add to line 45, so you get this:

</div>
{/if}
<br/>$[participated_threads_link]

<div id="navigation-tree">
$[navigation.tree]
</div><br/>
{if $[thread_count] > 0}
{if $[legend]}


Posts List: As explained my original post =)

Thats great Thanks

I'll be interested why it doesn't drop down as well.

My guess is because there's now two objects on the page with #navigation-tree as an ID. Two objects cannot have the same ID.
