How to change Top Menu?

Added by Richard Körber over 14 years ago

Hi!

I want to change the top menu. Right of the "Help" link, I would like to add a new link. It should link to a page of a project's wiki. It's always the same page of the same project, so a static link would already do. I even don't need right management, as the link should be visible even to anonymous visitors.

How can I do that?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Have a look at:

this tutorial. It explains how to extend the menus.
the wiki extensions plugin. It can add project menu tabs that links to wiki page. It should be straightforward to adapt it to your need.

Regards.

Thank you, Eric!

I was hoping for an easier approach, but this is already fine for me.

I have now created a new project called "site", with a wiki that contains a page called "contact". In the plugin's init.rb I have added this line:

menu :top_menu, "Contact", { :controller => 'wiki', :action => 'site', :id => 'contact' }, :before => :help

Now I see a top menu "Contact" that always links to the contact page of that project's wiki. This is fine so far.

What I need now is localisation. For a German visitor, I want the menu called "Kontakt", and it shall link to a wiki page called "kontakt". For non-German visitors, "Contact" and a link to "contact" shall appear instead.

I'm not a Ruby programmer... How can I evaluate the browser's language and use the menu's :if option properly?
