Is possible to add a new button, for example a button for back to my home page??


thanks

Hi, Timopro!
Yes, of course you can add new buttons. You need to edit the theme.php file. Look for the section which begins with "Begin album list" to find the code for your menu options, then copy/paste to create a new menu item and adjust the code as required. Exactly how you do this will depend on which "theme" you are using!!! E.g. I use the "Hardwired " theme, and I created a new button to link to my phpbb2 forums by editing the code to include this:
</td>
                                                                                <td><img name="buttonright1" src="themes/hardwired/images/buttonright1.gif" width="7" height="25" border="0" id="buttonright1" alt="" /></td>
                                        <td><img name="spacer" src="images/spacer.gif" width="5" height="25" border="0" id="spacer" alt="" /></td>
                                        <td><img name="buttonleft1" src="themes/hardwired/images/buttonleft1.gif" width="7" height="25" border="0" id="buttonleft1" alt="" /></td>
                                        <td background="themes/hardwired/images/buttoncenter1.gif">
                                                <a href="/phpbb2">Forums</a>
                                        </td>

So, I copied another "button" entry, and edited the text entry to say "Forums", setting the link back to "/phpbb2", my Forums. You could substitute this with "/home.html" or whatever!
Hope this helps!

                                        <td background="themes/hardwired/images/buttoncenter.gif">
                                                <a href="http://yourdomain.com/index.htm">Home</a>
                                        </td>
                                        <td><img name="buttonright" src="themes/hardwired/images/buttonright.gif" width="7" height="25" border="0" id="buttonright" alt="" /></td>

Thanks for the thought of copying the button text!
