Hey All,

Sorry but i have another question. How do you do that navigation bar like up the top here and on the main photo gallery demo?

Cheers,

Reece

It's the {CUSTOM_HEADER}. Search the board and manual for more info but you will have to edit a php file.

It's not that hard. Actually if all you want to do is add some html code then there is no need to know php just add your html code without the <head> or <body> tags. As quoted from the manual,

QuoteWarning: you mustn't include full html pages that contain an html header or footer (tags like <head> or <body>), nor can the included file do file header manipulation, e.g. reading another (non-coppermine) cookie.

To give you an idea, here is the code that generates the blue header you see at the top of the forum. As you can see it's just html code (including a lot of styling).

Code Select


<div style="width:100%;background-color:#0871A5;">

  <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="20">
    <tr>
      <td style="margin-top:5px;margin-bottom:5px;margin-left:5px;margin-right:5px;padding-top:5px;padding-bottom:5px;padding-left:0px;padding-right:0px;border-width:1px;border-style:solid;border-color:#0871A5;font-size:9px;"><a href="/" style="color:#FFFFFF;text-decoration:none;margin-left:5px;margin-right:5px;" title="Home"><img src="/images/cpg.gif" width="88" height="19" border="0" alt="" title="Home" /></a></td>

</div>

&uarr;&uarr;&uarr;<span style="font-size:9px">Custom header include (new) - use it to include your site's navigation into coppermine.</span>&uarr;&uarr;&uarr;

Try it, it can't hurt and if it doesn't work out, then remove the link the congif settings. You won't learn if you don't try.

Ok thanks

fggz · November 18, 2006, 08:02:45 PM

I also want to create a navigation bar like up the top here but I do not know what php file to modify? Can you tell me?

Thanks, from Spain

Gizmo · November 18, 2006, 11:45:50 PM

QuoteIt's the {CUSTOM_HEADER}. Search the board and manual

Create a new file called header.php and reference it in config>theme.

reece296 · November 18, 2006, 11:51:07 PM

So all we do is put what you put above in a new php file and thats it? How do we reference it?

Gizmo · November 19, 2006, 12:01:08 AM

Doesn't anybody RTFM anymore? http://coppermine-gallery.net/demo/cpg14x/docs/index.htm#admin_theme

reece296 · November 19, 2006, 12:08:24 AM

Nope

, but thanks, i know what to do now

reece296 · November 19, 2006, 01:12:11 AM

Also the end extension, would it be .html or.php?

Joachim Müller · November 19, 2006, 07:18:09 AM

Why don't you just try and find it out? Easily remedied if you should chose the false extension.

reece296 · November 19, 2006, 10:54:36 AM

Why can't you just say?
