Adding links to the NavBar in v3

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to put a blog link onto the navigation bar (on the default install where the 'Top > Catalogue' is I think).

 

I've gone into includes/filenames.php and added the code:

define('FILENAME_BLOG', 'http://www.blog.-------.co.uk');

Then into includes/languages/english.php and added this (only added the bottom line):

// header text in includes/header.php
define('HEADER_TITLE_CREATE_ACCOUNT', 'Create an Account');
define('HEADER_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT', 'My Account');
define('HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS', 'Cart Contents');
define('HEADER_TITLE_CHECKOUT', 'Checkout');
define('HEADER_TITLE_TOP', 'Top');
define('HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG', 'Catalog');
define('HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF', 'Log Off');
define('HEADER_TITLE_LOGIN', 'Log In');
define('HEADER_TITLE_BLOG', 'Blog');

(I left the extra bit of code in there to (hopefully) make it a bit clearer what I mean by 'NavBar'.)

 

But now I'm a bit confused; where do I go from here?

 

TL;DR - How do you add what would normally be a page link, but instead make it a link to an offsite page?

 

Thanks!

/catalog/includes/application_top.php

 

Find this code:

 

  $breadcrumb->add(HEADER_TITLE_TOP, HTTP_SERVER);

 

JUST IN FRONT OF THAT CODE ADD THIS CODE:

 

  $breadcrumb->add(HEADER_TITLE_BLOG, FILENAME_BLOG);

 

Backup the file before making any edits.

 

You break it - You bought it...

:blush:

If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.
