How do you add new TopLinks?

[EKO]

I have been trying to add new toplinks lately, I can add the link and all, but the actual words doesn't show up.

I tried doing a games section link, and I used this:

<li><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/games.php"><img src="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/{$theme['imgdir']}/toplinks/search.gif" alt="" title="" />{$lang->toplinks_games}</a></li>


But it didn't show up, it shows the little picture, and if you click it takes you there, but there is no text.

?

Because you probably haven't got a language variable in any language file for 'games'. Just replace {$lang->toplinks_games} with 'Games'.

Oh, ok, I will try it out now.

*EDIT*
Oh thanks, it works great! Is there any way I can centre the links though?

Use <center>toplinks here </center>

The center tag is not xhtml.

Use the css. Alter the toplinks to be text-align:center where it says text-align:right.

That's it.

can you use this for external game links.. one that is a sub to the forum for instance ...
http://www.myforum.com/games

But when I do that there is a problem with display of the image that I uploaded to toplinks. I don't understand why but just the link games appears. I even have it in png as the other images are and in the same folder...

<li><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/games"><img src="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/{$theme['imgdir']}/toplinks/gamefolder.png" alt="games" title="" /></a> </li>

As I said to your thread on the comm forums, you're putting gamefolder.png in the URL but the image is called gamesfolder.png
