Navigation Bar & Editing Links In Posts - Milky Way Red

Currently using the Milky Way Red style (love it), however I am unable to add/remove/edit any of the links in the navigation bar.

I'd like to remove the "Forum" link in the nav bar and replace it with one that says "Main Site" and just links back to the site's home page. Simple, right?
I've gone into menu_block.html and tried making edits to existing links, adding new links, and even removing all but one link, but when I save the file and upload it, none of the changes appear and the navigation bar appears untouched and fully functional.

I'm painfully new at this. Am I looking in the right spot? Is there anywhere else I need to make changes to?

I'm also having a minor issue with editing posts - if a user posts a link to a site (say, h**p://***.icyphoenix.com), then goes back to edit the post, it's adding

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]

" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

to the end of every link in the post.
So all links within the edited post end up looking like this:

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]

h**p://***.icyphoenix.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Any idea how to prevent that?

For your first question you need to edit menu_block.html.

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]

<table width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0">

<tr>

    <td class="forum-buttons" colspan="3" width="100%">

        <!-- IF not S_IS_BOT -->

            <!-- IF not S_USER_LOGGED_IN and S_REGISTER_ENABLED --><a href="{U_REGISTER}">{L_REGISTER}</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<img src="{T_THEME_PATH}/images/menu_sep.png" alt="" />&nbsp;<!-- ENDIF -->

            <a href="{U_LOGIN_LOGOUT}">{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<img src="{T_THEME_PATH}/images/menu_sep.png" alt="" />&nbsp;

            <!-- IF S_USER_LOGGED_IN --><a href="{U_PROFILE}">{L_PROFILE}</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<img src="{T_THEME_PATH}/images/menu_sep.png" alt="" />&nbsp;<!-- ENDIF -->

Re: Navigation Bar & Editing Links In Posts - Milky Way Red

I have a similar question. I want to add a link to Home with a url before the first link in the nav bar in Milky Way Red. Where do I do that? Also by chance, do you know if you can integrate a phpbb forum into an existing html page to alleviate the problem of having a link to return to the main website? Thanks and I hope I'm posting in the right place.

Thanks!

This is all I have in my menu_block.html and I don't understand what I need to change to add a new link to a separate url:

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]

            <a href="{U_LOGIN_LOGOUT}">{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<img src="{T_THEME_PATH}/images/menu_sep.png" alt="" />&nbsp;
