I made a change in placement of the code so that it will display on every page. I took the inserted code out of the BoardIndex.template.php and applied it to the index_template.php :

Find:

Code Select Expand



echo '
</div>
</div></div>';

// Show the "Powered by" and "Valid" logos, as well as the copyright. Remember, the copyright must be somewhere!

Footer Menu v.1 width problem

Code Select Expand

http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=2966

SMF version: SMF2.0
TP version: TP 1.0RC2
Default Forum Language: Hungarian
Theme name and version: Fire Rock (convert:Tinyportal-eu)
Links url

Hello everyone! I installed the manner and that problem of mine that the menu too stretches on the scheme a little , where I would be able to set the width of the menu ?
Thanks.....

Try this and see if it works...

Find:

Code Select Expand

//Footer Menu v.1 by: bluedevilcustoms.com
       if (!empty($modSettings['fmenu_enabled']))
{
echo'
<br />
   <span class="clear upperframe"><span></span></span>
<div class="roundframe"><div class="innerframe">
    <table border="0" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2" width="100%">

and replace 100% for 90%. Then clear the cache.

We rehearsed it already unfortunately and is out of order, there is an other solution?

Updated for SMF 2.0.1  ;)

Nice mod.  Can a textbox be used instead of one of the link columns ?

I think so... i dont remember if the text is good for 50 characters or less. Try it. If any, use

Code Select Expand

<br />.
