Title: Changing the Menu Item/Buttons etc...
Post by: SweetNSassyRobin on January 27, 2006, 06:32:16 AM
Hello Gentlemen...

I really hate to be a pain and you're probably going to hate me for asking this AGAIN since its supposedly been covered a zillion times and I can see how it has been. However, I'd like to edit the menu options at the top of my gallery and as you've previously suggested I've pulled the theme.php file from my server to edit the code as suggested, however this is all I have in my theme.php document...

The gallery was installed with Fantastico and I have modified the colors and setup of the classic template to suit my needs, but I cant figure out for the life of me how to edit something that isnt there as you can see above. Are there any suggestions for me on how I can go about making the minor changes to the menu without disrupting anything else I have done?

Thanks so much for any help you can offer...

Did you read the stickies in the very board you posted this?

Hi Tranz...

I thought I had...but I'll admit to being less than nerd proficient (and I love nerds so that isnt a slam) when it comes to coding and whatnot so maybe I am missing something when I am reading said stickies. It was my understanding that I needed to edit the existing theme.php file from what I have read but the information it says to edit is not in the theme.php file I have. I am sure I am misunderstanding or missing something here, so I would really appreciate a little bit of a helpful and kind direct answer, because I am not being lazy here, I am just a chick trying to stumble through building her own site and I've hit a road block.

Thanks,
Robin

Most of the sticky threads on this board (at the very top) tell you that the sample theme's theme.php has all the theme features you can customize.  You are meant to copy sections of sample/theme.php to yourtheme/theme.php and modify as desired.  Please read the stickies for more details.
