Hey all,

I recently purchased CMS Builder for a few Web site jobs I'm currently undertaking. One of which is a server side/back end redesign of a CMS for a local band. They currently use Flickr and YouTube to show off pictures and videos and I'd very much like to place links to these on the menu bar (instead of a page for 'Gallery' link it to Flickr). Is this possible? I'm not much of a programmer.

From searching the forum I found someone had a similar query for another InteractiveTools product... http://www.interactivetools.com/iforum/Products_C2/CMS_Builder_F35/gforum.cgi?post=63056;search_string=section%20external%20link;guest=16013063&t=search_engine#63056.

Thanks in advance!

Chris

Hi Chris,

It's not a supported feature but have a look in /lib/menus/header.php. Make a backup first and then try adding something below this line <?php echo $menuCells ?>

<?php echo $menuCells ?>
<td>Add your menu link here</td>

Hope that helps!

Works a treat Dave! Thank you. I've been messing about with the coding and now have external links displayed in the 'more' section :D
