What has changed with the navbar coding?

[Jason2]

Hi all,

I know your going say post this at vB.org...but since the developers are here -- I thought I'd ask here.

I'm trying to make the UserCP a drop down menu...here's what I've done:

I replaced:

<if condition="$show['member']">
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="usercp.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[user_cp]</a></td>
		</if>

With:

 <if condition="$show['member']">
      <td id="usercpoptions" class="vbmenu_control"><a href="usercp.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[user_cp]</a>
        <script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("usercpoptions"); </script></td>
    </if>

I then went to the bottom of the navbar template and found:

<!-- / PAGENAV POPUP -->
</if>

Under that I placed:

<if condition="$show['popups'] AND $show['member']">
<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="usercpoptions_menu" style="display:none">
	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">		
	<tr><td class="thead" align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="usercp.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[user_control_panel]</a></td></tr>	
	<if condition="$show['pmstats']"><tr><td class="vbmenu_option" align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="private.php$session[sessionurl_q]" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[private_messages]</a></td></tr></if>
	<tr><td class="vbmenu_option" align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="subscription.php$session[sessionurl_q]" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[subscribed_threads]</a></td></tr>
	<if condition="$show['siglink']"><tr><td class="vbmenu_option" align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="profile.php?$session[sessionurl]do=editsignature">$vbphrase[edit_signature]</a></td></tr></if>
	<tr><td class="vbmenu_option" align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="profile.php?$session[sessionurl]do=editprofile">$vbphrase[edit_profile]</a></td></tr>
	<tr><td class="vbmenu_option" align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="profile.php?$session[sessionurl]do=editoptions">$vbphrase[edit_options]</a></td></tr>
	<tr><td class="thead" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[miscellaneous]</td></tr>
	<tr><td class="vbmenu_option" align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$bbuserinfo[userid]">$vbphrase[my_profile]</a></td></tr>
	</table>
</div>
</if>

Some display properly, but when it gets to 'Edit Profile' it just displays nothing and looks odd. This works with 3.6.8...so I can't understand why it doesn't work with 3.7...has anything changed within the navbar coding to display?

Yes, there were several changes to the navbar for 3.7 so include notices, notifications, and change a couple of links that weren't there before. Did you try to revert first, and then apply some of your changes?

What are you trying to do exactly?

[Jason2]

Yes, it is default already.

What are you trying to do exactly?

Make the UserCP a drop down menu -- like the 'Quick Links'. I cannot understand why the above isn't working -- anything you can spot? Please let a developer know of this thread

Are you using Internet explorer? It is bad at displaying dropdowns. Does it show correctly in firefox/safari/opera?

[Jason2]

Tried all three -- but I use Firefox mainly.

IE has no problems displaying the drop downs, please do not spread incorrect information.

[Whiteyboy5]

Oh sorry, It's just through my web developing experience, the pages I have made for previous forum software have had problems displaying in IE (Possibly due to my inferior HTML to yours ) Obviously that isn't true for your forum software.

[Jason2]

The drop downs do display correctly, it's just that in Firefox they drop down faster.

In firefox they appear instantly, vs in IE they grow/slide.

Yeah!

Zachery, looking at the code -- can you see what is going wrong?

Here is a screenshot -- see where there is a gap? That is 'Edit Profile' and no matter what I put there, there is always a gap. It's the same with Miscellaneous.

Look at this and see if you can modify your code to match the standard usage: http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/templates_vbmenu
