Subject: Adding/Editing Links On Portal?
How and where do I edit the links on the portal and add new links including 88 x 31 buttons?

Currently the portal uses the Icy Phoenix button but is actually the link to my forum and I want to change that button to my own but keep the link to Icy Phoenix as well.

I also want to add new links.

I cannot find anything in the templates that indicates where they can be found so I need some directions for this please.

You should add them in Links section...

links.php

Adding them seems simple enough but editing them does not appear to be an option.

The default links has the first link to my website but shows the Icy Phoenix micro banner and I want to change the banner to my own (which seems sensible)

I could simply over write the Icy Phoenix banner with my own but again, because the banner is used twice, it changes both of them and that is not what I want to do.

First and last banner have the same code... so if you enable them in ACP, you'll have it identical unless you change the block.

The block file to be changed is templates/mg_themes/blocks/links_block.tpl

The code for the top banner is:

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
<!-- BEGIN links_own1 -->
<tr><td align="center"><a href="javascript:links_me()"><img src="{U_SITE_LOGO}" alt="{SITENAME}" title="{SITENAME}"/></a><br /><br /></td></tr>
<!-- END links_own1 -->


For the bottom one look for:

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
<!-- BEGIN links_own2 -->
<tr><td align="center"><a href="javascript:links_me()"><img src="{U_SITE_LOGO}" alt="{SITENAME}" title="{SITENAME}"/></a><br /></td></tr>
<!-- END links_own2 -->


Just hardcode the IMG SRC field and its link HREF.

Thanks for the above info however after finding some other related topics I was able to find out where to edit/add them in the ACP

This brings me to the next question which is not really related as such but when I go into the ACP my page title in IE is Icy Phoenix Administration - Windows Internet Explorer and the forum index shows as Forum - Windows Internet Explorer

These page titles show up as "mouseover" in the taskbar at the bottom of IE and I would like to know how to change them so they show the actual "Site Name" such as the index would read Home - Woopyak.com _ Windows Internet Explorer and the ACP show as Woopyak.com Administration etc.

ACP

OPEN adm/page_header_admin.php
FIND
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
$template->assign_vars(array(

ADD BEFORE
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
$page_title = 'WHATEVER YOU WANT';


OPEN includes/page_header.php
FIND
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
$template->assign_vars(array(

ADD BEFORE
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
$page_title = 'WHATEVER YOU WANT';


You may want to reuse the old value using .= instead of =.
You may also use vars like $board_config['sitename'].
