Hi all, I am not a programmer but have had fun hacking pligg.

I have got a fully functional pligg installation. My question is probably very simple for you programmers but here it is

I am trying to install a custom menu bar using a html file (with imbedded css) in the header. the problems is that I do not know how to call up the html file within the header.tpl file. I am not sure what language the tpl is writing in. I clicked the above tutorial but it is not working. I tried using frameset within teh tpl file but does not work. Is what I am trying even possible?

Thanks in advance for your help. i have attached the menu html files.

Hi flyfisher,

It's quite late when I've found your post and I can't help you with that menu but ... have a look into those.tpl files and you can see it's PHP but with different file extension. Have you try standard require or include from PHP ?

Thanks, but I didn't understand any of it... :(

I've been looking for the past 2 hours on how to change the title, for some reason there is no way to change it in the admin area and my title tag says pligg beta 9 / published news
