GT Mod and navigation/menu

[shocktone]

Hi guys,

the mod works fine. But something like:
{GT:stil} {NAV_ROW} {/GT} doesn't work.
Of course this makes sense.

I want to do use GT MOD so I can use the fonts I like for the navigation.

Any ideas ? Thanks alot for your help!

you could try in conf.template_default.inc.php in

Code: Select all

// row based navigation

Mhh. I looked at this location before. But I still dont know what to do...

[isac]

ok, Your right!

You have to edit front.func.inc.php around line 739 and change this line

Code: Select all

		$nav .= '">'.html_specialchars($GLOBALS['content']['struct'][$act_cat_id]['acat_name']).'</a>';

to

Code: Select all

		$nav .= '">{GT:stil}'.html_specialchars($GLOBALS['content']['struct'][$act_cat_id]['acat_name']).'{/GT}</a>';

Wow. That works a little bit already. But it only works for the first navigation item. The others remain the same. The other problem would be, that would need over/on status also.
Is it a maybe a better idea to write the whole menue in CSS (incl. pics) and than link to the pages ? Than its not really a CMS anymore.
mhhh

Keep it simple. try one of this menus

Ok thanks. I know how to program css menus with BG pictures. I also tried that with a similar system as GT. And it works. So I will do it all by myself in the template file

Than I make the connection to PHPWCMS with the NAV_TABLE_COLUMN:integer ? for example.
But if I add a new nav item I have to edit the template ?

Of course the other solution would be more elegant and quicker if it would work.
Thanks alot.

You can always put your custom menu in external file and them include via {PHP:mymenu.html}.

Good luck

Hi there,

i made the following and it works fine by me.

in the file front.func.inc.php (at \include\inc_front) go to line 778 ( in my version (Release 1.1-RC4 27-08-2004_A) there are 4 lines before, which are outcommented) and insert the complete following code in line 778:

Code: Select all

			if($GLOBALS['content']["cat_id"] == $key || isset($breadcrumb[$key])) {
				$nav .= '{GT:rownavmenuactive}';
			} else {
				$nav .= '{GT:rownavmenu}';
			}

Below the inserted Text you see this code:

Code: Select all

			$nav .= ''.html_specialchars($GLOBALS['content']['struct'][$key]['acat_name']).'</a>';
			$nav .= $after;

Change it like this: (Just inset {/GT} before the linktag

Code: Select all

			$nav .= ''.html_specialchars($GLOBALS['content']['struct'][$key]['acat_name']).'{/GT}</a>';
			$nav .= $after;

rownavmenuactive and rownavmenu are definded GT Styles. in my case they are defined as:
rownavmenuactive
rownavmenu

If you use the {Nav_Row} tag, you will see, that active categories are in the color of rownavmenuactive now.


It should look like this now:

Code: Select all

			//$nav .= '<a href="index.php?';
			//$nav .= ($GLOBALS['content']['struct'][$key]['acat_alias']) ? 
			//html_specialchars($GLOBALS['content']['struct'][$key]['acat_alias']) : 'id='.$key.',0,0,1,0,0';
			//$nav .= '">'.
			if($GLOBALS['content']["cat_id"] == $key || isset($breadcrumb[$key])) {
				$nav .= '{GT:rownavmenuactive}';
			} else {
				$nav .= '{GT:rownavmenu}';
			}

			$nav .= ''.html_specialchars($GLOBALS['content']['struct'][$key]['acat_name']).'{/GT}</a>';
			$nav .= $after;
		}
	}
	if($nav) {
		$nav  = $GLOBALS['template_default']["nav_row"]["before"].$nav;
		$nav .= $GLOBALS['template_default']["nav_row"]["after"];
	}
	return $nav;
}

// -------------------------------------------------------------

So it should look:

The Red is the actual category where i was.

I hope it is understandable
