Hi,

Ok thnx to this forum i custumized my page bar perfectly...
so thanks for that.

now i want to add this page menu bar to my smf based forum.
i want it on top of the forum page.

After putting up a post on the smf forums i found out there is a way to put html into a header.

so my question:
is it possible to find my custum made page bar html ??
or is it best to use the php of the bar in the php template of smf? (wich parts do i need to have of the php?)

im pretty new with website building so easy words please

again thanks,

ps this is the site and forum: www.gras-valkparkieten.nl and www.gras-valkparkieten.nl/smf/

You can't just drop code from one site into another. You will have to build a menu for SMF.

Hi,

theres a mod for smf so you can actually drop html..
php probably wont be as simple...

but if theres some kind of html its a mather of copy paste

What I was referring to was that the code is most likely going to reference locations in the site and if you drop it into a different site the code would need to be changed for that new site. Also there is no way I know of to get the code for a menu in WordPress.

but its the same site?
so guess i dont understand that...
but ok, no html code...

would there be any way to do it with pasting code in the index.template?
or is that code also hard to find?

What it looks like you have is WordPress and SMF installed with a bridge plugin. Is that correct? Are you trying to make SMF look like your main WP site? If so I am not familiar enough with the plulgin or SMF to give you an definitive answer but my guess would be you can't. I have see other forum plugins that work that way but I'm not sure about SMF

i dont know what a bridge plugin is?

I am busy making the 2 pages of the same site a like,
same logo, same kind of colors etc.

right now im trieing this to get the navigation bar above the forum: (a less atractive way though)
http://www.gras-valkparkieten.nl/test/

using an iframe.

my plan right now is to delete the header image and try to make the iframe go more to the left,
you think that will work??

iframes won't work in a WordPress page without adding a plugin for that function.

I actually already have that plugin

tried the iframe,
but the 2 scrolls where bugging me.
scrolling up didnt go the way i liked it..

guess i need to figure out something else...
since therese no real place of where the navigation bar code is?

maybe ill just add a html navigation without dropdown *if im even capable of doing that* )

you could go visit your site, view the source and grab the html that makes up the menu

trieing a lot of things right now...
but having a lot of problems on the smf part.

i almost succeded in putting my forum in an iframe in wordpress..
the iframe worked, i removed the header image on that page...
but the scrollbar was bugging me..

also i couldnt get the iframe as far to the left as i wanted.

im trieing to find a way to put html above my smf page to mimic the navigation (without dropdowns)
but even with that im struggling cause im not using a default. but thats an smf problem...

so its either: remove vertical scrollbar on 1 page + placing iframe on that page more to the left.
or: smf with mimic html navigation.

maybe you got a solution for my first option?

im sorry, since my english is bad and since im not used to webdesign language i may come over a bit random

its not the iframe i wanted without scrolling bar, but wordpress...

right now im working on this:
http://www.gras-valkparkieten.nl/menu.html

i made my own css/html navigation bar.
if i know how to make an iframe with html/css ill probably be set?
or am i dreaming again?

I'm not clear on what you are trying to do but if you want to eliminate the scrolling on WordPress just make you iframe height small enough.

well after a lot of trieing,

here:
http://www.gras-valkparkieten.nl/menu.html

this is what i wanted...
but couldnt really accieve it using wp.

just need to make the menu bar go more to the right now...
then its only smf edits left

i rebuild the entire nav bar....

right now i got everything set...

except i cant get the i frame centered:

<div style='align: center; width:1000px; height: 2000px; overflow: hidden;'>
<IFRAME SRC="http://www.gras-valkparkieten.nl/smf/" WIDTH="1042" HEIGHT="2000" FRAMEBORDER="0" align="middle"> </IFRAME>
</div>

(as you see i tried on multiple places) also i made the scroll bar go away without losing its function

http://www.gras-valkparkieten.nl/menu.html

apart from the center and maybe some beautifications: this is what i wanted

This is now outside what we supply support for as it looks like you are doing all your configuration in SMF. That is unknown territory for most here.

actually,
im doing nothing in smf....

this is just html+css
but i gues it isnt really wordpress related anymore .. since its just html.
anyways,
thnx for all the help so far
i actually got further today ...
