Site Menu

Adding/Removing Links

Changing the look

Adding Menus for Additional User Groups

Member Menu

The member menu is the horizontal menu placed under the main page header. File:Membermenu.png This menu is editable via the file called grou1menu.php in every template folder, and styled via menu.css Its a php/css based menu, easy to modify and very flexible. Example

<ul id="menu">
    <li><a href="index.php">Menu item</a></li>
    <li>
        <a href="0.php">Menu item</a>
        <ul>
            <li><a href="<?=$base?>/1.php" >Submenu Item 1</a></li>
            <li><a href="<?=$base?>/2.php" >Submenu Item 2</a></li>
            <li><a href="<?=$base?>/3.php" >Submenu Item 3</a></li>
            <li><a href="<?=$base?>/4.php" >Submenu Item 4</a></li>
        </ul>
    </li>
</ul>

Its that simple.

Also, grou1menu.php allow php scripts.
This is a very simple active menu item highlight script used in grou1menu.php, the one that highlights Home when index.php is the active window, so with other items.

<?php 
	global $reseller_free_plan;
	$page_homeSelected 		= (preg_match("/\b\*?.(index).*?\b/i",$_SERVER["SCRIPT_FILENAME"]))? "selectedMenu a" : "";
	$page_accntSelected 	= (preg_match("/\b\*?.(dnsmgmt|DomainContacts|DomainNs|dspincheck|dyndns|emailmgmt|map|phone|nsmaint|popmgmt|DomainMain|manage|createacct|welcome|contact|support|aLogIn|cart|omanage|smanage|hmanage|download|downloada|imanage|manage.php|managehome|sellhome|editprofile|subacctmgmt|profilemgmt|journal|history|emailarchive|affiliate|acctrefill|helpdesk).*?\b/i",$_SERVER["SCRIPT_FILENAME"]))? "selectedMenu b" : "";
	$page_hostSelected 		= (preg_match("/\b\*?.(hosting|dshosting|dnhosting|hsignup).*?\b/i",$_SERVER["SCRIPT_FILENAME"]))? "selectedMenu c" : "";
	$page_domainSelected 	= (preg_match("/\b\*?.(check|spincheck|spinname|transcheck|pricingfull|forsale).*?\b/i",$_SERVER["SCRIPT_FILENAME"]))? "selectedMenu d" : "";
	$page_otherSelected 	= (preg_match("/\b\*?.(packages|whois|spinname|templates|addons|caddons).*?\b/i",$_SERVER["SCRIPT_FILENAME"]))? "selectedMenu e" : "";
	$page_miscSelected 		= (preg_match("/\b\*?.(faq|faqfull|help|helpfull|services|servicesfull).*?\b/i",$_SERVER["SCRIPT_FILENAME"]))? "selectedMenu f" : "";
?>

Its also connected to the database, you can run AWBS MySQL Queries if you like.

Adding/Removing Links

You can remove any link as simple as removing <li><a href....>link name</a></li> from group1menu.php, and add links the very same way, placing a <li /> tag and with the link.

Changing the look

Basic layout

There is a basictemplate.php file included with each theme, it aims to explain how the basic layout it.

<!-- Use this to add a new pages to your site. Place this file in your templates/[theme] directory. Rename it as you wish.-->
<?=$header?>
<?=$top?>
<!-- Contents /s --> 
<table id="data" class="width-100">
<tr>
<td id="tablehead">place page title here</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td id="data">
<!-- 
Begin placing your data in here, you can strat from scratch <table> .. </table> or just work on this table.
it is the main container of all data, you can add more <tr></tr> and <td></td> tags.
-->
<!-- EOF -->
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- Contents /e -->
<?=$bottom?>

<?=$header?> places header.php's contents on top of page

<?=$top?> places top.php's contents on top of page

<?=$footer?> places footer.php's contents on top of page


header.php

Header.php is one of the three main pages taking care of AWBS templates, which are header.php, footer.php, and top.php.

You don't really need to modify header.php, unless you are going to add new style-sheets, JavaScript or anything else related. When you are about to start modifying or creating a new theme, top.php is where to start.


top.php

top.php is the essential file you need to start modifying when you start on a new AWBS theme, or modify the existing theme. The contents are pretty simple.

Basically, it starts with a <body> tag. For AWBS, there are a couple of events attached to the <body> tag, it always needs to be this way:

<body onLoad="hideObject(); inpIMG();">
  1. hideObject(); is used for the <div> box appearing when you perform a search task or process an order via a form try in check.php
  2. inpIMG(); is used to remove the border around image type inputs as internet explorer forces a border around them in case you use a global style for input tags with borders.

bottom.php

bottom.php is the 3rd major important page in AWBS templates. It basically complete top.php and displays the page footer. It finalizes top.php like this

top.php

<table>
    <tr>
        <td>

Any page
                Hi, I am an AWBS template page

bottom.php

        </td>
    </tr>
</table>

This is how essential bottom.php is. Now, lets see how bottom.php look like: This is an example from the noir theme.

<?php include(WORKDIR."/includes/ver.php"); ?>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="3">
<div id="submasthead" class="forlinks"><a href="<?=$base?>/index.php"><?=ucwords(strtolower(BMENU1))?></a> | <?php if ($_SESSION['t']!=2) { ?><a href="<?=$base?>/hosting.php"><?=ucwords(strtolower(BMENU2))?></a> | <?php }else{?><a href="<?=$base?>/pricingfull.php"><?=ucwords(strtolower(BMENU8))?></a> | <?php } ?><a href="<?=$base?>/check.php"><?=ucwords(strtolower(BMENU3))?></a> | <a href="<?=$securebase?>/createacct.php"><?=ucwords(strtolower(BMENU4))?></a> | <a href="<?=$base?>/support.php"><?=ucwords(strtolower(BMENU5))?></a>  | <a href="<?=$base?>/contact.php"><?=ucwords(strtolower(BMENU7))?></a></div>
</td>
</tr> 
<tr>
<td id="W3" class="copyright ac bold bg-white"><?=COPYRIGHT?><br /><?=$current_ver?></td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<?php 
//do not remove the below!!
if($_SESSION[newuid] != $_SESSION[adminuser] and trim($_SESSION[adminuser]) != "") { ?>
<div id="watermarklogo" style="position:absolute;"></div>
<script src="js/staticlogo.js">
</script>
<?php }?>
<script src="js/dw_event.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="js/dw_viewport.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="js/dw_tooltip.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<?=$dynamicconverterlink?>
</body>
</html>
<?php @mysql_close(); ?>

bottom.php is sensitive, so all you need to change in this file are the parts highlighted in blue. Other than that, please, don't change unless you really know what you are doing!

Editing the Stylesheet

The following code will be found in header.php

<!-- CSS -->
<!-- Load default styles for elements -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="templates/<?=$templatedir?>/css/main.css" title="main" media="screen" />
<!--[if IE]>
<script type="text/javascript" src="templates/<?=$templatedir?>/js/menu.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="templates/<?=$templatedir?>/css/IE.css" />
<![endif]-->

<!-- EOF CSS -->

main.css is the main style sheet and it contains only 2 import lines:

@import "style.css";
@import "menu.css";
  1. style.css is the main style sheet
  2. menu.css is the horizontal menu's style sheet

Adding new pages to the site

AWBS allows you to add custom pages, with custom scripts support as well, you can use custom PHP/MySQL in both custom and existing pages.
You can either place them in includes/gparser_user.php or in any page.

To create a custom page you need to follow basic instructions:

  1. Create a new file in your AWBS root folder, testing.php for example there is basictemplate.php as an example.
  2. Inside testing.php, place the following code.
    
    <?php
    	$DIR=(dirname(__FILE__));
    	include($DIR."/includes/dbconfig.php");
    	include($workdir."/includes/sessions.php");
    	include_once($workdir."/config.php");
    	include($workdir."/includes/gparser.php");
    ?>		
    		
  3. Explanation.
    <?php
    	//set the directory where the file exists
    	$DIR=(dirname(__FILE__));
    	//include essential files
    	include($DIR."/includes/dbconfig.php");
    	include($workdir."/includes/sessions.php");
    	include_once($workdir."/config.php");
    	//charge up template vars
    	include($workdir."/includes/gparser.php");
    	//specific vars
    ?>		
    		
  4. Adding some custom variables (like the ones you set in gparser_user.php
    
    <?php
    	$DIR=(dirname(__FILE__));
    	include($DIR."/includes/dbconfig.php");
    	include($workdir."/includes/sessions.php");
    	include_once($workdir."/config.php");
    	//charge up template vars
    	include($workdir."/includes/gparser.php");
    	//specific vars
    	
    	$template->set_var("services.php", $services.php); 
    	$template->set_var("some_variable_name", "moo");
    	
    	//end specific vars
    	//end charge up template vars
    	
    	//Example for checking maintenance mode. 
    	if($maintmode=="True"){
    		print $template->parse("maintmode.php");
    		exit;
    	}
    ?>		
    		
  5. Finally:
    
    <?php
    	$DIR=(dirname(__FILE__));
    	include($DIR."/includes/dbconfig.php");
    	include($workdir."/includes/sessions.php");
    	include_once($workdir."/config.php");
    	//charge up template vars
    	include($workdir."/includes/gparser.php");
    	//specific vars
    	
    	//$template->set_var("services.php", $services.php); 
    	//$template->set_var("", $); 
    	//$template->set_var("", $); 
    	
    	//end specific vars
    	//end charge up template vars
    	
    	if($maintmode=="True"){
    		print $template->parse("maintmode.php");
    		exit;
    	}
    	print $template->parse("my_template_page_name.php");
    	exit;
    ?>		
    		
  6. my_page_name.php is the page you place in your template folder containing the data, it will look like any other page, <?=$header?> <?=$top?> .... contents <?=$bottom?>

This is how to add a custom page to your AWBS.
