I expect you did the editting incorrectly. Attach your theme.php to this thread, rename it first.

rename a local copy from theme.php to theme.txt, reply to this thread, click on "additional options" at the bottom left when composing your message and attach your file to your reply.

you didn't, there's no attachment that goes with your posting. If you're having issues with attaching a file, upload the theme.php renamed to txt or zipped and upload it to your server. Then post a link to the file so we can download it from there.

I am totally stupid when it comes to this stuff so here is the link to the file I attempted to attach.
http://womenmotorcyclistsunited.com/coppermine/themes/mac_ox_x/themes/mac_ox_x/macox

Is that OK? All I wanted to do was add a link so that people could get back to my homepage and now I am a big whiny baby :\'(

The idea is that you give us the version of the file that you modified so we can see what the problem is. Giving us a completely unmodified file is pointless.

Can you walk me thru this so I can do it right? Just tell me what buttons I need to press. I can follow step by step instructions well enough.

I have somehow managed to restore the moc_ox_x back into my photogallery where it doesn't revert to classic. Now I am afraid to do anything to it. Please tell me again in concise steps how I can place a link back to my homepage on that particular template. I don't want to lose it again by doing something stupid.

Sorry, I am having great difficulty understanding this. But a question or 2 that might help me get this a little clearly.

Step 1. OK I found this code:
find
Code: [Select]
<!-- BEGIN logout -->
                                                <a href="{LOGOUT_TGT}">{LOGOUT_LNK}</a> |
<!-- END logout -->
EOT;

Step 2. Replace code with:
Code: [Select]
<!-- BEGIN logout -->
                                                <a href="{LOGOUT_TGT}">{LOGOUT_LNK}</a> |
<!-- END logout -->
                                                <a href="myfile.htm">my link text</a> |

EOT;


I just copied and pasted it....was that not what I do? Do I have to replace "myfile.htm" With a file of my own? Or do I leave it as is?

Step 3

Find second set of code. OK I did that too.

Step 4 Add after it.....I just copied and pasted that too. I have no clue if that is what I am to do.....or do I fill in or change something in this line under "myfile.htm":


  <td background="themes/mac_ox_x/images/menu_button_bg_middle.gif" valign="top">
                                                <a href="myfile.htm" onMouseOver="MM_showHideLayers('Menu1','','hide')">my link text</a>
                                        </td>

For example do I write the line as such.

  <td background="themes/mac_ox_x/images/menu_button_bg_middle.gif" valign="top">
                                                <a href="return to website.htm" onMouseOver="MM_showHideLayers('Menu1','','hide')">my link text</a>
                                        </td>

Or is it like this:
  <td background="themes/mac_ox_x/images/menu_button_bg_middle.gif" valign="top">
                                                <a href="myfile.htm" onMouseOver="MM_showHideLayers('Menu1','','hide')">return to website</a>
                                        </td>

Sorry for all the code copying but I am trying to understand this.

P.S. Is there anywhere I can test this before I try it on my own gallery. I don't want to make a mistake again.

download the attached file, rename it from theme.php.txt to theme.php and replace the one you have inside your folder /coppermine/themes/mac_ox_x/ with the one I supplied. For the future, I recommend following instrctions more thoroughly and learning some HTML. Use a plain text editor to edit your files, notepad.exe is fine.

I've already done this by myself and it works perfectly. But I want my gallery to be available in several languages. So I guess I have to add some new variables in the language files and to use it instead of "<a href="myfile.htm">my link text</a>". Can someone tell me where I have to difine those variables?
