How to edit the main menu of a SMF forum ?

I want to add another 2 links to the main menu of my SMF forum ? anyone can tell me how to do it ?

.

 

You can edit the main menu by going to the bottom of your themes index.template.php file. There there will be a list of already added link, just follow the same format

For further help, take a look at the forum in my signature

 

Thanks rockinaway. I need that info.

 

Could you explain bit more. I can see this part .

echo	'<li><a href="', $scripturl, '">' , $txt[103] , '</a></li>';

Code (markup):

How to add my own link there. ?

.

 

Do you want to add it to the menubar? The says 'Forum', 'Search' etc?

Or elsewhere. Please tell me exactly where you want it A screenshot could prove useful

 

Yup I want to add more links to menubar where you have Home , Help , Search etc.

 

Have a read of this:

is this the forum?

it may be different then the default index.template.php
i tried to download a copy of that theme from SMF to look at that file, but it was corrupted.

i found a copy

in index.template.php, find

// Show the [help] button.
	echo	'<li><a href="', $scripturl, '?action=help">' , $txt[119] , '</a></li>';

Code (markup):

add after:

// How about an extra button.
	echo	'<li><a href="your_link.com">' , $txt[1190] , '</a></li>';

Code (markup):

you'll have to find this

txt[119] = 'Help';

Code (markup):

in index.english.php and add another line,

txt[1190] = 'Help';

Code (markup):

change Help to whatever text you want to show
