About Using Replacement Tags

Post by rogeronline »

I am A newb -I really love this script but i have no idea how to use the replacement tags - i have searched these boards for two days - i have inserted the "tag snippits" into every location on the php wcms backend - ie in the "left field" of the templates box - how do i insert this tag or where exactly so i can get a menu to appear in my articles? Thanks So Much
thanks

hello

you can place the tag in html code in the template section in the backend. also you can use the tags while you create your content

e.g.
...
<TD>{NAV_TABLE_COLUMN}</TD>
...

also you can use the tag alone in the template. only place the tags in the template section in the backend.

a list of all replacement tags you will find here.

p.s. next time please post in the right forum part :wink: :lol: thats support no hack or enhancement :wink:

I did exactly what you said - but nothing the <TD>{NAV_TABLE_COLUM}</TD> just appeared on the screen and when i added it to the template section as just {NAV_TABLE_COLUM} it did nothing - what do you think the problem could be

Ahem... Just a thought, but shouldn't the replacement tag be {NAV_TABLE_COLUMN} instead of {NAV_TABLE_COLUM}? :roll:

You can change color and font size in the admin area.

Go to admin backend -> admin -> default css


To change the table border you can do that in your template in the main area or wherever you have your {NAV_TABLE_COLUMN} placed. At least that is where I change diverse table settings to my fancy.

But I am a total newbie, so I am sure there are more dignified ways to fix that. :D
