I always do that after every mod I add even if there is no DIY instructions telling me to. As I said. It shows up on prosilver with no problem. BTW this has been nagging at me for awhile now. What the heck is DIY an acronym for?

Did you follow the prosilver.xml instructions and purge the cache?
If so, can I have a link to your forum please?
Yes...my link is
www.mobwarsforum.com. Currently, I have a make-shift navbar up under the logo since I can't seem to get Redbar to work.
And @ Renodil, DIY means : Do It Yourself

@ Renodil - I honestly have no idea why it wouldn't show up. It works fine on the custom style I use on my own forum.
@ jtryptophan - You haven't made the edits to the template files yet or you have clicked the purge cache button in your ACP. That why it doesn't show up.

That's odd. It seems to be working on my other styles now. This happened after I cleared my FireFox's private data.
Another question though. When it's first loading in it shows the bluish color of the prosilver style before the image loads in. How do I change that color to better reflect the color schemes of the other styles?

Edit the redbar class of the styles colours.css file. Change the background colour to match

Demo Board:
Here's another demo. This ones shows the redbar moving to 2 lines
http://www.sixstringromance.co.uk/home.php#link
How'd you do that? The 2 lines thing AND having the header and footer show different things? The top has links as well as drop down menu links and the bottom is a link to us thing. ::Excitedly and rapidly repeating:: I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know.

The header menu on my website is one I picked up from the net - it's not part of the RedBar

If you only want the RedBar to show in one of the places (header or footer), then only edit the template for the one you want it to show in - I might possibly create a switch in the board config for this.
The "link to us" link (which should be fixed now

) is a custom page I coded.
To get links rolling on to 2 or more lines, just add more links. Simple as that. You could actually use the RedBar as a side menu too. Just add a <br /> in the HTML code, before the loop ends

Two words. Novice coder. In other words, huh?

What parts do you want clarified? There's not really much I can simplfy (except expand on the side menu part).

Haha, very nice

Like the style you have there. The round corners make it look really good.

One Question about the mod.
I have a style, which is based on subsilver2, and when I enter some links, this is the output:
Who can I solve this problem?
btw:
Redbar Code for prosilver:
Code: Select all
<!-- REDBAR -->
<div class="redbar">
<div class="inner"><span class="corners-top"><span></span></span>
<div id="red-bar">
<div style="text-align:center;">
<!-- BEGIN redbar --><a href="{redbar.U_REDBAR_URL}" style="color: #{redbar.REDBAR_COLOUR};" title="{redbar.REDBAR_NAME}">{redbar.REDBAR_NAME}</a><!-- IF redbar.S_LAST_ROW --> <!-- ELSE --> <strong>‹</strong> <!-- ENDIF --><!-- END redbar -->
</div>
</div>
<span class="corners-bottom"><span></span></span></div>
</div>
<!-- REDBAR -->
Redbar Code for subsilver2:
Code: Select all
<!-- BEGIN redbar -->
<table class="tablebg" width="100%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0" style="margin-top: 10px;">
<tr>
<td class="row1">
<p class="redbar"><a href="{redbar.U_REDBAR_URL}" onclick="window.open(this.href); return false;" style="color: #{redbar.REDBAR_COLOUR};" title="{redbar.REDBAR_NAME}">{redbar.REDBAR_NAME}></a><!-- IF redbar.S_LAST_ROW --> <!-- ELSE --> <strong>‹</strong> <!-- ENDIF --></p>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- END redbar -->
