I'm back Rod. Now I am trying a test album from LR. I have the latest plugin and the .htaccess file is on the server in the TestBL2 root folder. Authentication does not work, returning the error. http://corvette-photography.com/TestBL2 … hError.jpg
Well Damn, man. That did it!!
HURRAH
I didn't change the font yet
Well, I took out every single p and /p tag in the whole page and nothing changed!
GRRR!
Thanks for helping. We couldn't use this program without you.
Ain't that the truth!
I cleaned up all the tags in the one menu I have installed and once again the nav bar is above the logo. I ran Validator against the file http://corvette-photography.com/TestBL2/Menus2018/ but can't figure out what it is telling me about the tags. EX it says that at line 138 it found a closing p tag without an opening tag BUT the opening tag is at the beginning of the line. I see this in a lot of places. Most of the errors are in areas of the page that I have no access to.
Yes, I will. I am well on the way to finishing this project.
Thank you very much for all your help. You are a living instruction manual!
Best regards,
Paul
OK. I closed the tags and hardwired the hyperlink and it looks good on that front.
On to the next one. How to get a photo to be on the left side of the home page but not on any other page?
As far as I know it is no longer necessary to close any of those tags.
I am getting tired. See you tomorrow.
I see the flaw in the original href. The Les Marmitons site is in a sub folder named lesm. The links do not include that part of the path and therefore could not work in the test bed. I will add /lesm/ to the URL and see if that is enough.
I do have identical folders in the original site and the test site. I took out the closing tags in the html code but the problem persists.
OOOPS, that last comment is not right. The masthead is under the nav bar and the logo is above that. Strange.
I copied all the folders with menus and recipes over to the test bed to make the url links easier. So I used /fragments/menu2018.html for example. These links will still be valid when i move. I see the masthead did not appear and there is a Backlight logo in the upper left corner.
OK. I copy/pasted the html code into a new page and it plays pretty well, except I don't like the line spacing. When I click on a blue italics link the link does not work. This seems to be a problem of the original hyperlinks not coming over properly.
That worked but it is ugly as hell and the embedded hyperlinks do not work. I am getting close.
I see above I was to link to the pdf file, not the php file. I will do it again.
So I tried with the URL link to the menu2018.php file and the site stops while loading the nav bar. You can see that now at http://corvette-photography.com/TestBL2/.
I guess the old php code will not work in a BL2 site
I tried to copy and paste the menu2018.php code into a BL page and got this: So that didn't work.
Something went wrong
Use of undefined constant TTG_SITE - assumed 'TTG_SITE' (this will throw an Error in a future version of PHP) in 95-page-2.0.4-1-45-menu_27-110-content-2.0.0-17-4-1-admin.view-1.template on line 403

I experimented until I got one to work. The little "i" doesn't tell you much.
I am experimenting with the URL link right now.
That is a whole lot of extra work when you have 13 years worth of monthly pdf files. I am trying to link each set to a drop down.
Right now I am trying to create a sub menu page and I get an error about formatting error in identifier. I cannot find anything that explains how this should be formatted. Is there anything written about this or is it still trial and error?
That didn't work
In CE4 each link had a php file that refecenced a separate html file. Here is an example. http://lesmarmitonsnj.com/menu2018.php Click on the menu to see the html file.
In CE4 I was able to link html pages through php into each page. Can I do the same here or do I have to copy and paste the html from each of those files into the corresponding page in BL2?
OK. I was linking them to the top item instead of their corresponding item.
Thanks,
More to come, I'm sure. I've got to take a break for now.

Yes, I did that. But the actual page does not show up when i click the the appropriate dropdown button. I get the Membership text under all the buttons. I am missing something here.
I get it. I entered the first one and then just kept adding more to that one.
I am copying and pasting text from old php files to the various pages but each sub page does not appear when I click on a dropdown item such as Dues under Membership. What is the trick to get that page to appear in the correct place? Only to top item text appears. This must have something to do with the identifier for each page.
