Slide Menu

Post by Brf »

My current phpBB2 forum uses a derivative of Dusty Green, which has the lefthand-slide-menu. When I started building a phpBB3 forum, my users requested that I port over the slide menu.

I found a few bugs that prevented it from working under the XHTML environment, but managed to work them out. If anyone is interested in fiddling with this type of menu, here is the code : http://www.castledoom.com/CN/styles/cas ... slide.html

Simply drop that file into your style's template folder, and put

Code: Select all

<!-- INCLUDE slide.html -->
into your overall_header.html

The link to the menu template itself is in the first post.
You can see the menu in action at castledoom/CN:

http://www.castledoom.com/CN/

Just hover your mouse over the NAVIGATION bar on the left.

I just checked, and find a small gfx bug on that page, nothing much, but when viewing online members, guests etc, i get this little graphic bug, i think you are aware of it, the grey color in the center there, that say's last updated should be like the rest of the colors, or???
If i want to use the slide menu, what do i have to change to make it like the prosilver or the subsilver style?

No. The grey should be a different color, since it is using a different class for that column.

To use the slide menu with a different colored template, simply change the colors in the parameters section near the bottom of the slide.html. You might also have to change the font colors in the ssmitems.css.
