Hi im conveting the essential them which ie excellent by the way for our college look and feel.

Im having two niggling issues that i would like to resolve.


First Love the My Courses menubar item on the top left but is their any way to move it to the far right of the menu.

As i already have a custom My courses menu on the right and wold love this to replace it. Also any way to make a click on the My Courses menu to go stright to the dashboard?


Also im getting a while line flicker above the menubar that only happens in IE under mouse scrolling, have had a google around and it could be a CSS javascript error, has anyone come across this before and have any ideas or fixing it? Can across that its ie css code with background-attachment:fixed????


Any help would be excellent as im so close to going live on the new theme for 3.3

#page-header {  border-bottom: 0 none; }

In that case if you have access to the layout files for this theme, then if you open essential/layout/tiles/navbar.php

Using a text editor open the navbar.php file and move the custom_course_menu line of code and place it after the custom_menu line of code, using cut and paste.

Cheers for the info but custom_course_menu and custom_menu dont seem to be in the navbar.php file


I have attached the current navbar.php thats on 3.3 as they may have changed some namings around.

Scrap that i used Notepad ++ and was easier to identify the code needed to move, now working spot on.



Also is it possaible to make the My Courses navbar clickable to also go to /my/index.php the same as the dashboard link underneath?

As current staff are also used to just clicking on the menu to go stright to the dashboard.


Cheers for all the help
