Top menu help...

can someone point me in the right direction on how to move the search box, and what .tpl file to edit if I'm gonna want to have a home button and email in the top banner? I saw somepeople haveing text links over the image is that simple php? Or is the best way to go in adobe image ready and slice it up with links?

any help? how about just the easiest way to move the search bar and will it be over top of an image

you can find it in header.tpl

just movie search.tpl code where you want it.

Hi, Ricky:

Basicly you need to modify the file: skin1/customer/top_menu.tpl, below is my file:

Quote:

<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 height=70>
{if $speed_bar}
<tr>
<td align=right valign=top>
<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0>
<tr>
<td class="TabBar" valign=top>|</td>
{section name=sb loop=$speed_bar}
{if $speed_bar[sb].active eq "Y"}
<td>{include file="customer/tab.tpl" tab_title="<font class=Tab>`$speed_bar[sb].title`</font>"}</td>
<td width=1>[img]{$ImagesDir}/spacer.gif[/img]</td>
{/if}
{/section}
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
{/if}
{if $usertype eq "C"}
<tr>
<td align=right valign=bottom>
<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0>
<form method="get" action="search.php" name=productsearchform>
<tr align=center valign=middle>
<td class="Tab">{$lng.lbl_search}:</td>
<td valign="middle">
<input type="text" name="substring" size="16" value="{$smarty.get.substring|escape}">
</td>
<td valign="middle">{include file="buttons/search_head.tpl"}
</td>
<td width=20></td>
<td><font class="Tab">{$lng.lbl_advanced_search}</font></td>
</tr>
</form>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
{/if}
</table>

Let me know if you have questions.

I tried your modification on the skin1/customer/top_menu.tpl file and didn't get my page to look anything like yours. When I changed the file back to the original, it doesn't change back. Any idea how to get my header back to the original?

If you go to edit templates and open up that file then you can hit restore file and it will change it back to the original code. If you did that and you are still not seeing changes then try to clear out your templates cache.
