What's the hook that displays the drop-down navigation bar menu? I'd like to add that to my site.

Here? It's a built in feature in IP.Content.

Thanks, Brandon. I found it.

Hey Brandon, I was curious to know, if its possible to add in a little arrow like here on IP Site for the drop down menus... and no arrow for no drop down..

Nevermind, I got this figured out...

[Megami Community]

I've been trying to figure that out myself ... nothing in the ACP will add that in ... there are no options for it.

[CrossFire-Radio]

What I did was went to: ACP > Look & Feel > Template Merge Center > Run a new report on: (choose your skin)... Now if you have any Customization in the ipb_styles.css Dont let it run auto (or if you have a custom skin)... Click the little Magnifying glass to view the newerish pieces in the css and then manually add them in your skins ipb_styles.css

I only replaced / added what I needed to get the menu working.

[bfarber]

That arrow is part of the menus, but there are CSS changes in the IPB skin to support it. If you have a custom skin, you will need to update your ipb_styles.css file manually (or using the merge center).

I ended up having to reinstall what forum skins are available for 3.3, which fixed the problem. Thanks.

[SG Staff]

is there a place I can post a big THANK YOU to Invision for making this available? I know they don't get much other than complaints for every little change, but the addition of the Customized Primary Menu support is AMAZING!

[Megami Community]

Yeah, right here, just say "thanks".

This sounds great, but I'm puzzled in trying to find it. I've found the feature for editing the primary nav. But how do I actually show the ip.content categories as a drop-down menu underneath 'news' in the primary navigation? Cheers

[asigno]

Sorted. I didn't realise you'd have to add it as a custom tab. Now just for the arrow..

So I am assuming I can still post in here ... 

Does anyone know the html/coding to put in to get the drop down affect? I have figured out drop down boxes, but I cannot figure out the drop down navigation, >_>

Please post in the peer help forums if you require assistance modifying or updating the templates.  Thanks!
