    [Answered] Quick links just disappeared

    It disappeared in these two skins:




    But using this skin, it's there, although broken, since VSa Advanced New Posts isn't working:



    I'm not sure how it happened. I've tried disabling all plugins but it didn't resolve it.

        Create a new style with no parent. Is the issue still present?

              Try disabling your modifications/plugins and see if you still have this problem.
              Note: To temporarily disable the plugin system, edit includes/config.php and add this line right under <?php


              PHP Code:
              define('DISABLE_HOOKS'true);

                Already tried that. It's not plugins that's causing this, because the quick links work with some skins. Could you give me the default code for the quick links? That way, I can manually search for quick links in the navbar or wherever it's placed, and replace the broken code.

                  The default code for Quick Links is in the style you created from post 4.

                      Top right of each post is a number, right across from the post-date. That's what Lynne is referring to.

                        In post 4 here - https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/show...=1#post2320752 - you were asked to create a default style and see if the problem still exists. In the next post, post 5, you said you did this. Since the new default style you just created is totally default, then all the templates are the default templates.

                          As I said, the problem still exists. In fact, when I create new skins, they don't even install the quick links. Also, for whatever reason, the forum section icons aren't working any longer. I haven't changed anything here. It's all buggy ever since I upgraded from vB3.8 a few days ago.

                          I'm not sure but it's possible that the quick links disappeared after I changed the forum.php to index.php (I don't understand why the vBulletin team changed this? I much prefer index.php rather than forum.php) in the Navigation Manager.

                          In any case, I could easily solve the quick links issue if you give me the standard default code for the navbar.

                            The default code for the navbar is within a brand new default style, if you have deleted the default style you made to check this issue with then simply re-create it and copy all code from the navbar templates into your custom styles exact same templates and save.

                            Index.php is default, it routes you to the correct location so if you have changed it I suggest changing it back until you understand how this all works, it's different in 4.x versus 3.x and you need to be aware of the in's and out's before making changes respectively .

                              Never mind, I realised what the problem is now. I created a new index in Navigation Manager, and I used that one instead. So that's why quick links disappeared. This problem is now resolved.

                              Still, however, images aren't working. I'll start a new thread about that if I can't find it on Google.
