Guest Menu

Guardian2003 · Posted: Tue Jun 15, 2004 3:16 am

I'm looking for pointers on how to modify the main menu block.
What I am trying to acheive is for the menu links to appear in bold blue if the link is set visible for 'Guest'
Links appear in bold black for links set to visible for 'Registered users'.
Any idea anyone - short of hard coding all the links individually which I can do as a last resort.

I will assume that you mean block-Modules.php? If so, your basic approach would be to use the is_user() function and determine if the person is a user or visitor. Then, based on the true/false set a variable, say $color="blue", and wrap the menu link in a <span style="color:$color">LINK</span>. Enough pointers?

I can follow the logic of that but I'm not a coder (not php anyway) BUT I'll give it a go and yes it was indeed block-Modules.php I was referring to as this is where the menu call is stored.

Many thanks Raven!
