How do I create a drop down menu on the top navigation bar? I mean with custom links and content.

Edit the navigation template.

Knew I would get a reply in a blink...

Yup, im there now. What do I add. I am code-o-phobic.

Look how the other menus are done and copy the format.
The difference is you will have to use hard coded URLs and text rather than xen:link and phrases.

Or use this http://xenforo.com/community/resources/nodes-as-tabs.9/ (using link-forums) if you do not want to do any editing yourself

I'm running 1.1.

Any chance you could help me with it. I am looking at it now and I don't get it. I know no PHP, only every basic HTML.

Im guessing I should be here:

<xen:if is="{$tabs.forums}">

<li class="navTab forums {xen:if $tabs.forums.selected, 'selected', 'Popup PopupControl PopupClosed'}">



<a href="{$tabs.forums.href}" class="navLink">{$tabs.forums.title}</a>

<a href="{$tabs.forums.href}" class="SplitCtrl" rel="Menu"></a>



<div class="{xen:if {$tabs.forums.selected}, 'tabLinks', 'Menu JsOnly tabMenu'}">

<div class="primaryContent menuHeader">

<h3>{$tabs.forums.title}</h3>

<div class="muted">{xenhrase quick_links}</div>

</div>

<ul class="secondaryContent blockLinksList">

<xen:hook name="navigation_tabs_forums">

<xen:if is="{$visitor.user_id}"><li><a href="{xen:link 'forums/-/mark-read', $forum, 'date={$serverTime}'}" class="OverlayTrigger">{xenhrase mark_forums_read}</a></li></xen:if>

<xen:if is="{$canSearch}"><li><a href="{xen:link search, '', 'type=post'}">{xenhrase search_forums}</a></li></xen:if>

<xen:if is="{$visitor.user_id}"><li><a href="{xen:link 'watched/threads'}">{xenhrase watched_threads}</a></li></xen:if>

<li><a href="{xen:link 'find-new/threads'}">{xenhrase whats_new}</a></li>

</xen:hook>

</ul>

</div>

</li>

</xen:if>

I think I got it with the tips you gave before.
