Hi -

On our boards, we would like to add our navigational image links above the boards so that the boards match our website :-)

We know that we have to change the Control Panel > Eve > Settings > Choose Style Edit > Custom HTML -- I am just not sure where/how to insert it without messing everything up :-)

FYI...

Here are the navigational picture links:
http://www.venusimaging.com

Here is what our boards currently look like:
http://venusimaging.com/eve/ubb.x

Thanks for your help :-)

Valery ~

Hi, Valery.

First of all, I recommend talking to whoever set up the style for http://www.venusimaging.com.

If that's you, then the following should make sense:
1) Open a new style
2) Make sure any CSS/script information you need is in the "Head Tag" custom HTML box.
3) Put everything from the opening Body tag up to the <!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="center" --> in the "After Opening Body Tag" custom HTML box.
4) Put everything from <!-- InstanceEndEditable --> to the closing body tag in the "Before Closing Body Tag" custom HTML box.
5) Save the style, and assign it to a test forum
6) Get ready to troubleshoot. As you can see from steps 3 and 4, whoever wrote the code anticipated using the frame over a lot of different content types. However, little problems can pop up. One of the things I noticed is that a lot of the image links in your code are relative. You'll want to point them to the correct domain. Other display issues may pop up, but you should now be on the right track.

Good luck!

Hi Paul :-)

Thanks for the info!

Quick question -- I don't see the

<!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="center" -->

and

<!-- InstanceEndEditable -->

Areas because I have written over them :-)

My [Insert AFTER Opening Body Tag (HTML Only)] works perfectly on the left hand side -- the only thing that I want to add is our navigational images appearing above the boards -- where do I splice in this html?

Thx :-)

V ~

Hi, Valery.

I'm actually talking about the <!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="center" --> and <!-- InstanceEndEditable --> in the code for the main page from http://www.venusimaging.com.

The code before and after those tags makes the "wrapper" around the content on the main page, which includes the navigation images at the top and the left side. I had suggested pulling it all in because then you know that all the tables will be set up the way they are on your main site.

If you don't want to pull it all in, you could try checking out the code in there already and seeing how it matches up with the code from http://www.venusimaging.com.

Okay, I tried pulling the current code that is working and adding the same formatting from the main website, including the links --

When I paste this back into EVE, it makes the boards appear to the far right -- like a third column --

What is the specific code I need to insert to make sure the boards appear where we want them?

Thanks for all your help -- I sooo appreciate it :-)
