Help adding a button

[misstami]

I know where to go to add a button, and I had no problem adding a button for the contact form on the forum. But I am having problems coding the buttons to point to a page off the forum. I am using SMF 1.1.11 and BlackRain V.2.

Here is the code I added for the contact form (and which works great)

Code: [Select]

// How about the [contact] button?
       echo '<li', $current_action == 'contact' ? ' id="active"' : '', '><a href="', $scripturl, '?action=contact" ><span>', Contact, '</span>[/url]</li>';
How do I code it to point tothis link? I've tried just about everything and I keep getting errors.

hi,
try this:
In: current_array()

Code: [Select]

if (in_array($context['current_action'], array('search', 'admin', 'calendar', 'profile', 'mlist', 'register', 'login', 'help', 'pm', 'forum')))

Then:

Code: [Select]

// How about the [forum] button?
       echo '<li',   $current_action == 'forum' ? ' id="active"' : '', '><a href="',   $scripturl, '?action=forum" ><span>FORUM</span>< / a ></li>';

That really doesn't solve my problem. I know how to add buttons for pages that are part of the forum. What I want to do is add buttons that point to pages NOT part of the forum (links to other parts of the site).

This is my forum. http://www.bontempsrp.com/smf/  I want to add a buttons with all the others that points to pages like this one http://www.bontempsrp.com/wordpress/

Okay i see , try direct link :

After this:

Code: [Select]

// How about the [forum] button?
       echo '<li',   $current_action == 'forum' ? ' id="active"' : '', '><a href="',   $scripturl, '?action=forum" ><span>FORUM</span>< / a ></li>';

Add this:

Code: [Select]

// How about the [blog] button?
       echo '
        <li><a href="http://www.bontempsrp.com/wordpress/index.php" target="_blank"><span>BLOG</span>< / a></li>';
...?

Just a thought ..
actually you could add a direct link to your Blog via your Banner image in your Forum  ...

Add this:

Code: [Select]

// How about the [blog] button?
       echo '
        <li><a href="http://www.bontempsrp.com/wordpress/index.php" target="_blank"><span>BLOG</span>< / a></li>';
...?

That worked perfectly! Thank you so much.

Great , nice theme btw ..

I really like the theme. It was very easy to work with and modify for my forum. That was the easiest time I've had adding a banner to a forum ever. And switching the link colors.
