[Plugin: Add All Nav Links to BP Adminbar] Menu bar disappeared and no control menu in admin

Hi Kristen,

Sorry, the backend admin panel is a feature to be included in the next version (still chewing on that bit). In the meantime, the user configuration options can be accessed and modified directly in the bp-wp-navbar.php file.

The plugin will hide the main navbar by default. To set it to show, open that file in any text editor, go to line 48 and locate
$hideMainNav = true;
change that to
$hideMainNav = false;
Save and reupload the file. Your navbar will now appear. Play around with the other options in that section of the file, between lines 32 and 59, to get your new navbar looking and behaving the way you want.

If you get stuck, post here again and I`ll be glad to help out ??

Omigosh you are perhaps the most patient person ever… I feel ridiculous for not understanding that as I did read the documentation – it just didn’t register in my brain for some reason. lol

Nav bar appears – worked like a charm. ??

So I set $pageLinkDropdown to true but I’m not seeing any changes to the nav bar. (Of course I logged out first.) ?? But it still just looks normal/horizontal.

I’m going to try to see if there’s a plugin conflict (unless you can think of something else I’m doing wrong!) and I’ll let you know if I find anything. ??

Thanks again for being so kind. ??

Best wishes,
Kristen

Hi again Kristen.

$pageLinkDropdown only modifies the appearance of the adminbar, not the main theme nav. It also only applies to earlier versions of WP.

In WP 3.0, the dropdowns should appear automatically in the adminbar. You can also change the labels of the dropdowns in the plugin file at lines 44 and 45.
