Hi!

I'm wondering how to replace top right search box in Rhuk Planetfall template? Maybe I would use a picture instead.

Thnx!

That template uses the search module. So you would just unpublish your search module and instead publish a newsflash with an image (or multiple imaes)...

Yeah just make sure you put the new module "position" as "user4" and publish the new module. If the search module is unpublished it will take its place.

Aaron your all over these boards like a rabid Mambo fantic, always usefull help too. I've actually learned a lot from your post's. I'll be seeing you around.

Hi!

I did everything you said, but nothing happens... the search module is still there... I used newsflash module the fill the gap and now I don't know where are the newsflash items...

help!

Zip up your template... and attach it to a post. Let us take a look at the template itself.

well, that's timing!

I've just finished editing the template... by default in the template index.php was search box... I've changed it and now the box is a nice picture of a free climber...

thnx anyway!

Your right...

Here's the offending code:

Code:

<td>
<form action='index.php' method='post'>
<div class="searchblock" id="searchblock">
Enter Keywords:
<input size="15" class="inputbox" type="text" name="searchword" style="width:128px;" value="search..."  onblur="if(this.value=='') this.value='search...';" onfocus="if(this.value=='search...') this.value='';" />
<input type="hidden" name="option" value="search" />
<div align="left">
<input type="submit" value="GO" class="button" style="width:35px;" />
</div>
</div>
</form>
</td>

Honestly thats too much extra work for the template... You can do all of that with just:

Code:

<?php mosLoadModules ( 'user4' ); ?>

Assuming the sites using defaults for the original modules all you'd have to do is publish the seach module and enable the search button to get the same effect. This is just my personal opinion but to me, the rhuk series of templates seem much too complicated then needed.

What I was trying to do was show you how easy it was to change thing's with module postions and so forth. But this template wasn't designed with that in mind I guess (at least not the search area.)

If the template was setup like that the directions I had given you would've worked.
