I just edited the get_navigation() function!

The changes are:

after line 632:

Code:

$pagesArray[$count]['linkmenu'] = $data->linkmenu;
                    $pagesArray[$count]['linkmenuurl'] = $data->linkmenuurl;

and later down:

Code:

if ($page['menuStatus'] == 'Y') {
            
                if($page['linkmenu'] == "yes"){
                    
                        $menu .= '<li class="'. $classes .'"><a href="'. $page['linkmenuurl'] . '" title="'. strip_quotes($page['title']) .'">'.$page['menu'].'</a></li>'."\n";
                    
                }else{
                    if ("$currentpage" == "$url_nav") { $classes = "current ". $page['parent'] ." ". $url_nav; } else { $classes = trim($page['parent'] ." ". $url_nav); }
                    if ($page['menu'] == '') { $page['menu'] = $page['title']; }
                    if ($page['title'] == '') { $page['title'] = $page['menu']; }
                    $menu .= '<li class="'. $classes .'"><a href="'. find_url($page['url'],$page['parent']) . '" title="'. strip_quotes($page['title']) .'">'.$page['menu'].'</a></li>'."\n";
                }
            }

where i check if the menu is a link menu and if it is then create a simple link to the url given!

Btw, i dont like editing core files either, but this was made for personal use, then i relased it if somebody needs it!
Would be nice if there is a link menu check box in GS!

why didn't you copy the function, rebame it, make your changes and include it you plugin.

that way there is no need to change core files

Hello, I downloaded your plugin and when I tried to activate it I got

Quote:Fatal error: Cannot redeclare get_page_content() (previously declared in /homez.344/entente/www/admin/inc/theme_functions.php:25) in /homez.344/entente/www/plugins/theme_functions.php on line 31

Now I can't acess anything, nor the site or the admin page !
