[proflat] using WordPress Header

[bsolah]

Hey I was wanting to use the header from my main site, melbournespokenword.com as the header above my phpbb forum at forum.melbournespokenword.com, don't know if anyone can help me with that or if it's even possible.

how much of that header do you want? if you use the whole thing including the image of the face, it will shove your board down so that people will have to scroll down to even know that it is not your home page.

I would suggest just adding the menu from the top to your board.

that would mean editing the overall_header.html file for your style and adding the following to it:

Code: Select all

<nav class="main-nav" id="main-nav">
  <div class="menu-new-menu-2015-container"><ul id="menu-new-menu-2015" class="menu"><li id="menu-item-1665" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-1665"><a href="http://melbournespokenword.com/about/">About</a></li>
<li id="menu-item-1664" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-1664"><a href="http://melbournespokenword.com/words/">Words</a></li>
<li id="menu-item-1663" class="menu-item menu-item-type-events menu-item-object-cpt-archive menu-item-1663"><a href="http://melbournespokenword.com/events/">Events</a></li>
<li id="menu-item-1741" class="menu-item menu-item-type-taxonomy menu-item-object-category menu-item-1741"><a href="http://melbournespokenword.com/category/audacious/">Audacious</a></li>
<li id="menu-item-1668" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-1668"><a href="http://melbournespokenword.bigcartel.com/">Store</a></li>
<li id="menu-item-4130" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-4130"><a href="http://forum.melbournespokenword.com">Forum</a></li>
<li id="menu-item-4131" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-post menu-item-4131"><a href="http://melbournespokenword.com/announcing-the-2016-melbourne-spoken-word-prize-format/">MSW Prize</a></li>
</ul></div></nav>

then you would have to find all of the css for that menu and also include it in your proflat style css.

Thanks, not the image, but the description/blurb too and the next event thing on the right side, and the social media buttons

then you will have to grab a lot more of the header code.

go to your wordpress page and right click and choose view source. that is what I did to get the code from above.

I'll try that, but not sure it'll work as it'll be taking things like php point to database stuff
