phpwcms Support Forum

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

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 thats support no hack or enhancement

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

hello online roger

did you create an structure!? did you add articles!?
if yno go first to admin menue sitestructure and add some levels!

I was also wondering what is the intened entry or filename format intended for use under the page layout section - where it says imame and class. I was wondering how to set the background image of eachsection.

hello

you can setup the backgorund in the layout section!
there you have the fiels class, image, color.

place bg images in picture and call them in the image field picture/image.jpg

for wich file format you ask!? sorry didn't understand

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

hello

sorry my fault!

{NAV_TABLE_COLUMN}

is right!

but why you dont look to the link where you have the replacement tag overview there it's right!*

Pappnase is right... I mean c'mon, the "basics" are at least touched upon here:

hello dex

or this what i post in my first answer.

Ok I finally got a few things figured out - I appreciate all the advice - i am now just working on the incorperation of Custom Buttons - You wouldnt know where those images are stored do you - i will search otherwise - my client is going to be happy - he wanted something quick and this really was - especially with all the great support - let me know about those buttons if you know - you can see my project as it goes at http://www.thespoongroup.com - you guys are the best

hello online roger

wich buttons you mean?! there a lot of graphics in phpwcms!*smile*

if you mean the graphics for the nav table column
you will these here

Thanks for that tip - would you also know where the color and size of that same menu are set - i cant seem to find any thing -

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.

i am just trying to match the navigation menu to the site - i am looking for any sugestions
