How to format the menu like you guys did ?

Hi !

I was wondering how it is possible to format the modules menu like you guys did.

I mean, in the normal menu all modules are ranked according to the alphabet and are put closely together.

I'd like to group some sections like you guys did.

Any suggestions ?

Thx in advance !!!

Put code like below in a block.

Code:

<tr>
                <td bgcolor="#EBFAED"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4">
                    <tr>
                      <td><font class="content"><table width="140" border="0" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="0">
  <tr> 
    <td width="12">[img]images/icon_mini_menu.gif[/img]</td>
    <td width="122">Home</td>
  </tr>
  <tr> 
    <td width="12">[img]images/icon_mini_menu.gif[/img]</td>
    <td width="122">Account</td>
  </tr>
  <tr> 
    <td width="12">[img]images/icon_mini_menu.gif[/img]</td>
    <td width="122">Help</td>
  </tr>
</table>
<hr>
  <table width="140" border="0" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="0">
    <tr>
    <td width="12">[img]images/icon_mini_menu.gif[/img]</td>
    <td width="122">Downloads</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td width="12">[img]images/icon_mini_menu.gif[/img]</td>
    <td width="122"><a href="modules.php?set_albumName=packs&op=modload&name=Gallery&file=index&include=view_album.php">Nuke 
      theme packs</a></td>
  </tr>
  </table>
  <hr>
<table width="140" border="0" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="0">
  <tr>
    <td width="12">[img]images/icon_mini_menu.gif[/img]</td>

How did you guys get that "new" graphic to show up in the main menu? How long will it stay there?

I'm writing a new menu block, and will be having links directly to sections in contents. What I would like to do, is to have a new graphic come up when one of the contributors adds a new article in their category.

Also I have nuke groups installed, I'm wondering if you guys know if anything has to be added to the menu block so it recognises the permissions set by nuke groups.

Thank you

Blocks in Nuke

Iacoj.
We simply added an img src tag next to that line in our block html.
As for getting the image to come up when a user does something or new submission or whatever. You would probably be best to convert your custom block to an actual block-Custom.php file. Then you could mess with some "if else" statements in the php to try and see if you can make it happen.

Ok Thanks Mikem,

I'll give it a go.

Do you know if the block will recognise permissions given through Nukegroups if I just write it like one previously shown here, and worry about the graphic later?
