Hi,

Please explain your request?

You have a navbar already? Do you have an extra one you can add or?

You can add it in overall_header replacing this {GENERATED_NAV_BAR}

For anything else please do explain or provide the navbar you want to add.

yeah you will have to explain more?
you could always remove the whole nav bar and add your own custom one if you wanted to as well.

I am not sure if you want to add or remove something from your existing nav bar or if you just want to add a whole new custom one?

well fist you want to create your nav bar.

I would do it with bbcode like you are creating a post first.

then open another tab so you can click to the links you want to add,

So all you would do is add the link and text or images you want placed in the navbar

text link would be like this.

Code:
[url=YOUR LINK HERE]YOUR TEXT HERE[/url]

or if you want to add images/buttons

Code:
[url=YOUR LINK HERE][img]YOUR DIRECT IMAGE LINK HERE[/img][/url]

so then you would place them side by side, for which ever way you want to do it with text or image, you can preview it as you go along as well.

Once you have all of the ones you want, be sure to wrap the whole thing with center tags.

Now take the whole bbcode and place it in your home page message and hit save, This will convert it to html for you. copy the new converted html code and save to a note pad, then be sure to remove it from the home page message.

The last steps would be to

1 go to navigation bar options and select only show images and hit save.

2 Go to your pics management and remove all nav bar related images on the first page.

Ok so now your nav bar will be gone, simply copy your code from the note pad and go to your overall header template, past and the ver top of you template, then publish.

you may want to add one of these above you new nav bar code for space. </br> or two.
you can also place one under your code to, you have to fiddle with it for what you like.

You may also want to save all the nav bar images in your pic's management first as well, in case you ever wanted to add them back.

You could also just remove the whole nav bar from your template to first if you think that may be easier, but either way i would suggest creating the whole thing in bbcode first then convert by adding to your home page message as i explained above,

It's just easier to do that way for beginners instead of jumping in trying to do it all html from the get go.

If you would like to just do it with all html first, then here are the html code format and you can test on a html page first as you go along and create it.

Code:
<a href="YOUR LINK HERE" class="postlink">YOUR TEXT HERE</a>

or if you want to add images/buttons

Code:
 <a href="YOUR LINK HERE" class="postlink"><img src="YOUR DIRECT IMAGE LINK HERE" border="0" alt="" /></a>

So that is pretty basic on how to create a custom nab bar, now if you wanted to add mouse over images,sprites or spy-menu type, then you getting into a whole different ball game and would have to know more of basic html,java,css and perhaps certain web development software depending what you was doing?

so for anything like that i would need to see some example links on what exactly your shooting for.

If its a new navigation bar then the best place would be to past it at the top of your overall header template, this way it will be on every page.

I pretty much explained everything up there the easiest way as possible.

How many links are you adding?
And are you using your own images or just text.

If you post a few links with the names or images then i can set up a small example for you.
