All I did was to create a new module called, strangely enough, 'Navigation' and copy/paste in a menu I created in NVU.
Check HERE, top left. (http://www.cornishserver.com)
Or HERE, top left also (http://www.localcornwall.co.uk)(site still under construction)
Infinitely configurable :D

Could you please tell me how you did this. This is exactly what I wanted to do. I don't know how to create the menu or even add it as a module.
Thanks.

And where you get Live News? All I did was to create a little html like:
<tr>
<td>
<p align="center">
<a href="http://www.spreadfirefox.com/?q=affiliates&id=****&t=57">
<img border="0" alt="Get Firefox!" title="Get Firefox!" src="$vboptions[homeurl]/safer.gif"/></a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<p align="center">
<img border="0" src="$vboptions[homeurl]/thunder.gif" width="125" height="80"></td>
</tr> Then pop it into a new 'Template' module with a unique name etc.
Could you please tell me how you did this. This is exactly what I wanted to do. I don't know how to create the menu or even add it as a module. I literally just created the menu in an HTML editor (e.g. NVU or Frontpage) that looks something like:
<tr>
<td class="$bgclass"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/arrow.gif" alt="" class="inlineimg" /><if condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'adv_index'"><a href="$vboptions[bburl]/$vboptions[forumhome].php?$session[sessionurl]"> Forums <else /> <a href="$vboptions[homeurl]?$session[sessionurl]"> Portal </if></a></td></tr>
<tr>
<td class="$bgclass"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/arrow.gif" alt="" class="inlineimg" /><a href="$vboptions[bburl]/forumdisplay.php?f=22" > News Articles </a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="$bgclass"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/arrow.gif" alt="" class="inlineimg" /><a href="http://www.bk-clan.co.uk"> -= BK =- </a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="$bgclass"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/arrow.gif" alt="" class="inlineimg" /><a href="http://bc.rwu.no/"> Battered Chicks </a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="$bgclass"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/arrow.gif" alt="" class="inlineimg" /><a href="$vboptions[bburl]/downloads.php$session[sessionurl]"> Downloads </a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="$bgclass"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/arrow.gif" alt="" class="inlineimg" /><a href="$vboptions[homeurl]/links/"> Links </a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="$bgclass"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/arrow.gif" alt="" class="inlineimg" /><a href="$vboptions[bburl]/forumdisplay.php?f=25"> Member Profiles </a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="$bgclass"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/arrow.gif" alt="" class="inlineimg" /><a href="$vboptions[homeurl]/faq/"> F.A.Q. </a></td>
</tr> Then in the admincp/vBA CMPS 'Add Module' type='template' and added the example code above as the template. You have to fill in all the details like Module title etc, but it's fairly straightforwards. I'm sure there's a tutorial here somewhere. I'll look for it and come back to you.

There is a small tutorial on how to create modules HERE (http://www.vbadvanced.com/membersarea.php?do=viewusermanual&productid=4&pageid=5), I hope that helps.

Thanks, but that went way over my head. I tried to follow it but just ended up with a sort of menu at the very top of the page, even above my logo.
I think I'll give up.

The only thing limiting what you can do is your imagination and your knowlege of HTML.

It means that there is no limit what you can do with a vba module.
