Re: Single Menu Page with Bv and PHP

I have my jewelry site set up with the nav buttons (2 sets one on either side of page) and title in middle set up in an i-frame - would it be worth my while to change from iframe to this method? each page with nav buttons on it will have to be redone correct?

I don't know if it worth it, that's your decision. For sure it is SE friendly, . Yes, every page that you want to use this method with, must be redone.

Re: Single Menu Page with Bv and PHP

if i decide to do it - can i ....just delete the iframes - make up a templete page with the 2 nav buttons and title on it then copy and paste using the icons to my old pages? or will that cause problems also need to remember to resave and publish all pages to php - i'll also have to change the links to ... necklaces.php from necklaces.html right? dont want to start this until i'm sure i understand it

Re: Single Menu Page with Bv and PHP

Yes, you could make the php page have the 2 nav buttons and title all on one page. So, if those are the items in the iframes, yes, you'd delete them - the rest of the page would stay the same.

Yes, you'd have to change all the pages then to .php.

I really recommend you look at doing it this way - while you are still new - as it is so much more se friendly.

thanks Beth - little by little I am going to work on it - at the same time trying not to mess up the site too much
the pages that don't have nav buttons on them like the pages with the enlarged photos of the jewelry don't need to be changed do they?

Re: Single Menu Page with Bv and PHP

no- those pages are pop-ups, right? You don't have do anything with them.

Beth - thanks again - I think I have them all done - just have to remember when i make a new page - i still am working on the content on the pages but am about out of ideas

Re: Single Menu Page with Bv and PHP

You need to give more details for us to help. If you go back and follow each step - I promise it will work - did you go into page properties and change the page to php before republishing?

Re: Single Menu Page with Bv and PHP

still working on it..what i did notice is if i change the .html to .php on the address bar in internet explorer it works...

[Bethers]

Re: Single Menu Page with Bv and PHP

yes, all your links need to now say .php instead of .html - that is what you are changing to be able to use this script - your pages will all be .php instead of .html

Re: Single Menu Page with Bv and PHP

i also assume i have to add the html box (in the place i want my menu bar) plus the

<?php
include ("menu.php");
menu();
?>

code on every page, in place of the toolbar??

then php and republish??

do i change the html to php in the navigation properties box only, plus the page properties also..

Got It..i think..cool...

Re: Single Menu Page with Bv and PHP

if i change my nav bar in the menu page and republish it, what happens if the size changes? does it that matter if the blank html box on the page is still the size of original prior to updating the menu nav bar?,
