I have installed the medal system and trying to add a link where the memberlist/ranks are. I have it added in the CMS section, but isn't updating on the actual page itself.

Am i doing something wrong?

Currently, i have it named medals, not an external site, and medals.php as the link.....so to my knowledge it should work.

Disregard that second link as it basically says the same as the first link.

Just make sure you are not using the nav links [Site Map] block. Instead, use the dyn menu [Dynamic Menu] block. I still don't understand why the nav links [Site Map] block is included in Icy Phoenix. Talk about prehistoric.

Got it...the dynamic menu thing is annoying to get running though.

but that was my problem...same as the guy in the second post.

the first will definatly be handy though so thanks for the help/info

What!

The dynamic menu is one of the best things about Icy Phoenix! All you need to do is switch the block file wherever you see the outdated nav links [Site Map] block. You no longer need to edit a file to add/edit/remove links. You can add/edit/remove links via the CMS now.

Glad you got it fixed Pyro-Tech!

The thing about it was the Block Menu ID number (default = 0) didn't like the default. I was messing for like 10 minutes with other options and finally changed that to 1 and it worked fine.

Don't get me wrong, i love the dynamic menu....now if there was a way to make custom pages within IP, then i would be set now!

but again, thanks for the help.

EDIT: nevermind....i think i see it on the first link you gave....so yay....:D
