Main Menu items

Hello,

From where I can change the title/phrase of the main menu items - Portal, Forum, Blog, etc., since i need to change "Poral" to "Home" and "Forum" to "Forums"?

Looks like these vars are hard coded somewhere other than the header template.

Also, how I can change the size of the menu tabs? I'd like to increase them slightly to accomodate longer titles - i.e. "Links Directory" - without breaking the text into 2 lines.

Thank you.

The text is phrased, the phrases you need are: "redcarbon_ portal_ link", "redcarbon_ forum_ link" and "blog".

This is quite difficult I'm afraid, you'll have to edit the 2 tab images in the /misc/ folder and then edit the css for the menu. If you have trouble, open a support ticket here with FTP and Admin details and I'll do this for you.

Re: Main Menu items

Could you be more specific when you say these items are "phrased"? Where would you go to edit them? The css files directly, or somewhere in the admincp?

Re: Main Menu items

If you search for the phrases in your admincp (Languages & Phrases -> Search in Phrases) you can edit them there.

Let me know how it goes

Ok, I found:

setting_redcarbon_forum_link_desc
setting_redcarbon_portal_link_desc

But changing them has no effect. Do I need to rebuild something somewhere?

Re: Main Menu items

The phrases are:

redcarbon_forum_link
redcarbon_portal_link

If you search "redcarbon" you should be able to find it no problem.

Found it. You have to make sure to search for this in "Phrase Text and Phrase Variable Name" not the default search options. I was modifying the wrong one. Works great. Thanks for your help and patience!
