Hi there

I would like to install the kb mod. Now I have to change the overall_header.htm but I cant find these lines



before them I should insert this lines:



As I dont find the line above I dont know where to insert the other line.

Would be great if somebody can help me

Thanks a lot

Well this is the main menubar wich looks quite different in subsilver compared to black pearl.

You could add it to the menubar in black pearl (keeping in mind you don't add too much there to avoid width problems) or get creative and add it anywhere you like.

If you want to add it to the menubar take a close look at menu_block.html
If you agree having the link in front of FAQ then put it on a new line before the FAQ code ...or add it anywhere else.

In black pearl these are text links (not images) ...it's up to you to decide if you want the image link or the text link.

If you need help creating the new addition let me know but really in this file the examples are right in front of you

Hi Josh

Thanks for helping I will take first a look to the menu_bar and if i cant see it I will ask you again. (its the first Time that I work with html)

It's really quite simple:

find:


add:

Yes, got it

But, like you say... Now I have too much links in the menu bar. How can I change the width of the whole template? Is there a general point to change this? If I look at this board here it is bigger than the original one

Yeah but this is not phpbb we use here

Open _mg_config.php

Find:


and set it to what you desire in px or % ( % will be a percentage of the user's screenwidth ...meaning it will be flexible )

Aaww Not? Which one are you using?

Josh, You are my hero!! It works perfectly now exceptionally that I want to rename "kb" with "glossar". How can I do that?
And the knowledge base is a little bit expander than the forum and the gallery

The thing used at this site is Icy Phoenix, try clicking arround a bit or read the portal page for lots of info on this. (personally ...I do use phpbb3 AND a black pearl based template )

I'm really going to need a link to see what you are talking about

This mod comes with it's own language files?
Then you should be able to find the variable in there (in your case twice, german and english)

Ah this is a own board

I solved the problem with the expanded kb, i cleared the cache and now its working.

No, the kb mod comes only with english, I have to transalte it by myself
Where can I find thos variables? I dont find them? Do you have a Exaple like these are looking?

in language kb.php probably this line:

i tried this an renamen "Knowledge Base" with "Glossar", its not working.



in the menu bar the link is namen KB.

If I replace in this line L_KB with L_GLOSSAR

in the menu bar the link is named {L_Glossar}

Somewhere L_KB has to be defined as "KB", not?

Im confused....

Me too, I'm doing this mostly blindfolded a link would really help I guess.

Are you saying it does not say "Knowledge Base" in your actual menu bar?

have you tried it with the above line looking like this?

and that did not work?

Yes, I tried this and its not working

Yes, in the menu bar the link is named kb (if i leave l_kb in menu_block.html)

the link is www.tattoo-forum.ch
on the portal go to foren-übersicht most upper left.

Thanks for the link.

For starters.. please change {L_GLOSSAR} back to the original {L_KB}

Secondly.. are you sure you are editing the german language kb.php file?

EDIT: 3rd ... you should really have a menubar at portal-page too, but that's off topic

AND...

add to language common.php (preferably where KB mod told you to add some other variables in the MODX file):


now if it still don't work you may shoot me

Hi Josh

Thanks for your effort, but im afraid I have to shoot you now

I added



in the common.php in the language folder, but nothing happends...

Im really sure that I changed it in the right language.


And your idea with the menu bar in the portal is great But... how to do this?

Ouch ..hehehe didn't see that comming but I'm going to blame the mod author for using L_KB while it is already in use in default phpbb!!

So lets work arround it, you already were on the right path to do that...

- Please change back in the menu html file L_KB to L_GLOSSAR (or anything you like better)
- now change in the language kb.php file the line:

to:


and keep in mind that now anywhere L_KB is used in the script it needs to be changed to L_GLOSSAR
