[ABD] Custom Navigation Bar v1.0.7

[drooid]

I don't now if this was reported but there is a problem with sorting submenus. Buttons up and down didn't work properly.

Brilliant extension thanks a lot.

I too found problems with sorting submenus. Buttons up and down didn't work properly.

Would it be possible to have an option to add a separator.

example: Home • Another Page • Other Site

Also an option to change the font and whether you can make it bold.

Just add them to the words when you build the menu no CSS required attach them to one of the words like below
Link 1 --> Home
Link 2 -->• Another Page •
Link3 --> Other Site

I used this style separator, play with the spacing to get what your looking for.
Home | Another Page | Other Site |Other Site | PHPBB.com | Google|Admin Email|

This extension has been very useful, thanks!

Issues:

• The button text does not change color on rollover - should it?
• I have also noted that ordering doesn't work well. For those having trouble, I adjust the order numbers directly in the database, starting from 0 (zero). The values were not getting written. It might have something to do with deleting the default link? Or maybe it is getting written, but it's always 0.
• Lower left and right corners of the navbar go square when hovering over it.

Feature requests:

• It really would be nice to have an option in the ACP to put a thin-line separator between buttons so we don't have to fiddle with special characters so people won't need to ask for help about how to do it. Maybe an ACP option just for that separator character? Or a dropdown for a separator style?
• ACP option to have the buttons left-justified, centered, or right-justified for all three themes. I prefer the dropdown menus, but need them to the left so I have to use the sliders.
• ACP option for rollover color.
• ACP option to make all button text identically spaced according to longest link title. Or an option to specify the spacing ourselves to make it easier to code.

Edit: This fixes the rollover square corners in slider.css - change 0 to 5:

Code: Select all

#menu_bar:hover {
	border-bottom-right-radius: 5px;
	border-bottom-left-radius: 5px;
}

Edit2:
To make the button text change color on hover, add this new entry to slider.css (or dropdown.css or phpbb.css) to override the HTML tag:

Code: Select all

.top_menu li a:hover font {
	text-decoration:underline;
	color: #A8D8FF;
}

Change attributes to suit yourself. I copied how the Prosilver SE section titles behave on a hover.

It would be great if you could make the color (and maybe even the underline) configurable in the ACP.

Just to add a suggestion, it would be better to move all your tags like font out of the HTML and into the CSS. I had a tough time figuring out why the font color refused to get applied on a hover in the CSS (.top_menu li a:hover) until I found font declared in overall_header_page_body_before.html.

Nice, thanks.

[JWPlatt]

FYI:

In overall_header_page_body_before.html, line 7, at the very end of the line, there is a space between the ending tags.

Code: Select all

... </font> </a>

It should be edited out, because during a rollover (hover), IE shows the rollover underline (see my post above) in a different color. Chrome doesn't care, and probably the others.

Hi,

I used "Extra Navbar Menu" on 3.0.13, now I am updating site to 3.1.3 and installed "[ALPHA] Custom Navigation Bar v1.0.7" when I go to "links" page to add links I get this error message.

Code: Select all

General Error

SQL

SELECT * FROM phpbb_navbar WHERE parent = 0 ORDER BY button_order ASC

Without looking at any prior history for this extension, I'd assume a new column "parent" was added to this extension at some point after your original install. In a local test before applying to production, try adding the "parent" column to the phpbb_navbar table. Not knowing your setup, you might have to make your best guess about adjusting values. Set them to 0 (zero) initially.

Sorry, but if you're not familiar with how to go about using a test server or database client, I can't offer a tutorial. But I use Uniform Server(Z) and MySQL Workbench, respectively.

On the chance you have other missing columns, here's the full MySQL CREATE statement to help guide you:

Code: Select all

CREATE TABLE `phpbb_navbar` (
  `id` mediumint(8) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `name` varchar(255) COLLATE utf8_bin NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
  `parent` mediumint(8) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
  `sub_parent` mediumint(8) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
  `button_order` mediumint(8) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
  `url` varchar(255) COLLATE utf8_bin NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
  `guest` mediumint(8) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
  `registered` mediumint(8) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
  `display` mediumint(8) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
  `external` mediumint(8) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
  `linked` mediumint(8) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=8 DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_bin;

Thanks, I had a buddy make changes and worked perfectly.

The extension works great and you did a lot of work correcting errors for that I want to say thank you.

I have a request if your still open to requests
I see that there are only two functions that have to do with permissions

Display Link for Registered Users Only:
Display Link for Guests Only:

Is it possible to add a display link for certain groups only
I have 6 groups not including the predefined groups and it would be great if I can
assign a certain group to see and use the button.

If this is not possible I completely understand and still thank you for a great extension.

Hello,

mmmm. i have installed dion designs bridgedd to wordpress.

i got the message of new member who register that there is a fatal sql error. The register process works, but i want to get rid of it.
I am not really sure how, maybe some one has an idea, because its a not installed module that seems to cause the break in the phpbb register process.

vipika navbar is an phpbb extension. but usr_web1_2.wp_navbar should be wordpress. it is a little bit strange, whats happening there. usr_web1_2.phpbb3_navbar does exist, but not wp_navbar
