in the gallery how can I make the "Home" button point to my forum's index and not the gallery's one
in the admincp >> vbagallery >> modifiy settings >> Homepage Link in Navbar >> Set "Yes"

and still not working, it's still pointing to my gallery's index!

That option adds a link to your homepage, not your forum.

I didn't understand!
the header in the gallery/index.php points to the gallery's index while it should point to the forum's index
how can I fix it ? :\

Are you talking about the Gallery's navbar or Vb's navbar? The gallery navbar is supposed to point to the index page of the Gallery. There is nothing to "fix".

im talkin about the vb nav bar in the gallery/index.php
all the link in the vb nav bar is pointing to forum/gallery/file.php
while it should point to forum/file.php

zenithrs@bigpon, this is not what im looking for
ok I will show you what I mean
goto www.radioonev5.com/forumvb/gallery
and rollover the header's buttons: usercp - faq - members
these links should be pointing to: /forum/faq.php
but instead it's pointing to: /forum/gallery/faq.php
and in this case the faq.php doesn't exist in the gallery directory

how can I fix this error ? :S

I think that may be because you installed your gallery inside your forum directory. I would move your gallery install to the root of your server.

Snitz · May 13th, 2005, 11:57 AM

ooooohhh, If I moved it now after the installation, would it matter or something ?

It's because those links are in your header when they are typically in your navbar in a default vB installation. If you edit your gallery options, copy the list of files in your 'Navbar Replacements' option, and place those in your 'Header Replacements' option then that should take care of the problem.

Shouldn't. You will have to change the paths, but it should be ok.

Yea, or this way.

I just moved the /gallery/ into the main root
and now whenever I rollover the header's buttons, it points to, let's say if I wanna goto search.php
it points to: http://mysite.com/gallery/search.php while it should point to
http://mysite.com/forum/search.php

what's wrong ? :S

I didn't understand a thing :\

Snitz · May 13th, 2005, 12:22 PM

I did as brian said and it worked but the header's image was still pointing to gallery/index.php but I want it to point to my forum's index.php
I removed /gallery/ into my forum's directory and it got broke again
can't it work while the /gallery/ is in the /forum/ root ?

You would need to edit your header template and change where the link is pointing there.

Snitz · May 13th, 2005, 12:44 PM

so the gallery must be in the root directory otherwise it won't work ?!!!!

Snitz · May 13th, 2005, 12:48 PM

oh it worked!!!
but the gallery is on the root directory
but it's ok, not a big deal

May 13th, 2005, 12:57 PM

The gallery can be placed wherever you would like.
