Remove/edit items in nav bar

[DeeL]

Sorry for not being clear enough. Reading back through a post a made earlier I missed a point. I want to change the text shown in the nav bar (ie from Specials to Household for example) and also change the URL that they go to when they click on it (this I didn't really explain too well before). I just want it to go to a page that already exists (either an existing category or an EZ Page).

The format of a link is:
<a href="PUT THE URL HERE">text to click on here</a>

So, make whatever change you need in your template to accomplish that end result.

For the "PUT THE URL HERE", put in the URL to the page you want them to go to.
If your site is truly unilingual then just type in the actual "text to click on here" instead of adding the advanced support for multiple languages.

Thanks for your help. I have figured out how to amend the header in the bar and the target URL. How difficult is it to add a new item to the Nav bar?

[DrByte]

Judging from the tpl_header.php code you posted earlier, it's as simple as adding another item:

<li><a href="URL">Text To Click On</a></li>

[DeeL]

One of the existing 'Headers' there right now had this as the code in the tpl_header.php file

<li id="<?php echo $products_new_page;?>"><a href="index.php?main_page=products_new"><?php echo HEADER_NEW_PRODUCTS;?></a></li>

If I add what you suggested where do I add the rest of the code, and what syntax, to get the header I want to appear on the bar?

<li><a href="URL">Text To Click On</a></li>

If I wanted to add another header that says "Seedlings" what code do I need to copy and amend in what files?

[DrByte]

Same file. Add it immediately before or after the one you quoted.

<li><a href="whatever the URL is to your seedlings page">Seedlings</a></li>

You don't need to use any PHP like <?php echo HEADER_SOMETHING_SOMETHING;?> if you're not needing to make your page multilanguage-friendly. So, in my example that's why I just said "Seedlings" instead of adding any PHP at all.

Oh great. There's me making things way more complicated than they are. Will give it a go! :) Thanks as always! I appreciate you helping me.

[DeeL]

I tried that. It didn't work. I added the following but it didn't add another heading in the nav bar.

<li><a href="index.php?main_page=index&cPath=17">Seedlings</a></li>

Did you perhaps change the wrong tpl_header.php file? Your changes need to be in the one that's in the folder which contains the template you've got active on your site.

[schoolboy]

The <li> tags are given an ID (which is parsed into the tag depending on whether it is active or idle.)

It MIGHT be that the visibility / position of the <li> is governed by CSS... (The fact that the template author has gone to the trouble of assigning an ID suggests this may be the case.)

So you MIGHT need to add an ID to your <li> tag, then see what CSS is controlling the other <li> tags, and write a declaration that mimics their behaviour.
