Hi...Im not completely sure if this is the right place to put this question but what the hell.

recently I have been trying to edit the menu.php in the lib folder. I know what Im doing in there and everything is fine. I have my menu looking what i want it to look like. What I wasnt to know is how to change the names of the buttons. If you change...say the proffesions button to another name it just comes up with a blank button.

Well...I have added another link the menu and i want to name it DKPrules but when i do this I just get a blank button. I think it is something to do with $wordings. But im not sure what.
Could someone help me with this so i can have a button called DKPaddon.

Thanks

The $wordings are the localization strings. They are defined in enUS.php and deDE.php

$wordings['enUS']['dkprules'] = 'DKPRules';

and to show it in the menu

$wordings[$roster_conf['roster_lang']]['dkprules']

Hope this helps.

Thanks alot guys....Problem solved

Hopefully noone minds me posting in the one. My question is similar
Im not a coder. Know very little. I can figure things out for the most part when someone points me in the right direction. You know trial and error.
Anyways. I would like to add another button. What i dont know how to do is add the button and link it to another site. Not sure where i need to start and i rather not screw up the roster after spending alot of time getting it to work.
If anyone gets some spare time can ya point me in the right direction with where i need to start? I appreciate your time Thank you

In menu.php, starting line 150 or so (don't have a 1.7.0 at hand), there are serveral lines like these:

Code: Select all

if( $roster_conf['menu_alt_page'] )
    print '        <li><a href="'.$roster_conf['roster_dir'].'/indexalt.php">'.$wordings[$roster_conf['roster_lang']]['alternate'].'</a></li>'."\n"; 

Each of those represents a button. In the spot where you want to add your button, add the following:

[code=php]print ' <li><a href="http://yourdomain.com/yourlinkhere">yourbuttontexthere</a></li>'."\n";

Thank you very much. I was attempting to copy one of the alreayd made links and modfiy the code. Of course since i know crap about coding my attempts to modify them didnt turn out to well. I like to go and and see what code i can modify and actualy make something do something. Doesnt always work lol
i really appreciate the Code you posted.
thank you VERY VERY much
