Hi there,

I've been scouring the forums here, and playing with each of the default themes theme.php files, and I think I've finally discovered that you can not replace the text links of sys_menu and sub_menu with solid images...correct?

The best you can get is an image in the background with the text link 'floating' over it?

This is my SMF forum, note the solid images used as links...this is what I'd like to do for my Coppermine installation.

If it is possible to do this with the navigation menus, please point me in the right direction!

Thanks!

Review the hardwired theme - it contains a good example how to fully customize the menu, overriding the default textual menus. Here's the relevant part of themes/hardwired/theme.php:
Code Select
define('THEME_HAS_NO_SYS_MENU_BUTTONS', 1);
define('THEME_HAS_NO_SUB_MENU_BUTTONS', 1);
// HTML template for sys menu
$template_sys_menu = <<<EOT

                        <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
                                <tr>

Instead of the table-driven menu structure from hardwired with the image showing up as a background image you can easily change this to something like this:
Code Select
// HTML template for sys menu
$template_sys_menu = <<<EOT

<!-- BEGIN home -->
  <a href="{HOME_TGT}" title="{HOME_TITLE}">{HOME_LNK}</a>
<!-- END home -->
<!-- BEGIN my_gallery -->

<!-- END my_gallery -->
<!-- BEGIN allow_memberlist -->
  <a href="{MEMBERLIST_TGT}" title="{MEMBERLIST_TITLE}">{MEMBERLIST_LNK}</a>
<!-- END allow_memberlist -->
<!-- BEGIN my_profile -->

You may want to wrap the whole enchilada into a div container that makes sure that your navigation buttons align correctly, and of course you will have to adjust the paths to your images and the width and height attributes, but the above mentioned modifications should give you an idea.

Link to gallery is here if you want to see the final product (don't mind the rest of the unfinished CSS and theming, the menu was a big step). Thanks again GauGau, if I knew how to give karma I'd merit you!

I think this is a good candidate for a sticky topic, I'm sure many people would find this useful.

Your "final" code isn't really correct, as it doesn't make sense to define a var and then re-define it. Leaving the width and height attributes out will render your theme invalid, so I removed the validity constant as well. Finally, it doesn't make sense to address your images using a full URL - a relative path will do.
I reviewed the code you posted - you should replace it with this:

That's not PHP, but mostly plain HTML  ;)
