First, I just want to say I think this new forum is a great idea. I know I can go to the forums for individual applications, but I've always found the most help form LunarForums, so I much prefer to look for answeres here.
Now my request. I know it's been posted before, but can someone post the instructions, or a link to the instructions, that explains how to add an additional link on phpbb that will link back to one's home page? I've done it before, and I know it's pretty simple, but I don't remember the details, and a handy reference here would be nice.
Thanks,
Ron

I'm not quite sure what you mean? Do you want a link on the top of every forum page that takes you to your homepage? You must edit root/template/xxx/overall_header.tpl and that is where it would be. If you are having trouble - post the code for overall_header.tpl (because I'm not sure what style you're running) and I'll help you out.

Yes, that is what I am looking for. You can see what I mean by looking at my current forum page: http://rml3.com/forum/index.php Notice the "Home" link among the link options. I know I added that manually before, but don't remember the details. I want to add additional styles to my forum, and need to go in and modify the code to add that "Home Page" link. I know I can figure it out since I've done it before, but I also know there are experts here that probably know off the top of their head how to do it, and I thought the instructions might be a good addition to the new forum. Thanks, Ron |

Just found this: http://www.phpbbstyles.com/viewtopic.php?t=254See if that helps. It's for a template but you should be able to use that code with some minor modifications to get that extra link in there.  |

I just wish that you could make changes like that once and not have to do it seperately for each template you try. It certainly would make changing the template you are using a lot easier.

there's a mod you can use : Extreme Styles Mod http://www.phpbbstyles.com/viewtopic.php?t=355it doesn't allow you to edit only 1 template like you wish but it allows you to edit everything online. you don't have to download the files, edit them and upload them again. (though I recommend you always have a working BACK up before editing anything) |

In phpBB, to add a hyperlink to your home page, go to the Administration page... Configuration... and add this HTML tag to the end of your Site Description: <br><a class="mainmenu" href=" http://domain.com/">Home Page</a> You can add additional links as well, up to the length limit for the description field. For example... <br><a class="mainmenu" href=" http://domain.com/">Home Page</a> <a class="mainmenu" href=" http://domain.com/page2.htm">Page Two</a> |
