I suggest that a link to the IRC should go in the Navigation Bar like forums, User Cp and the rest..

Just a thought

Well you can download mIRC and get on through there. If they are going to add something to the nav bar it should be the Staff list. I hate going to the Homepage to get to it.

Fair enough

In the nav bar 'Staff List' which leads to dodian.com/forums/showgroups.php

Yeah, I think this would be easier. Although the IRC is located in the Site Navigation bar, just not on the main Navigation bar. I hope your suggestion gets added :).

We should have a customizable navbar. :D Add our own links and call them whatever we want.

I honestly don't think the staff change enough to necessitate it being in the Nav bar.

I like the idea of IRC being in there.

Depends on how long it would take the Admins to do something of that stature. And I think Winten might be the only one with the access to do so ]=

All you have to do is change the navigation/breadcrumb templates part

And add it in Simple enough

You have to change some code on the page. It's a template that you can edit via modcp. You can make a GreaseMonkey script that does it. I'm trying to make one right now :D

EDIT: Just finished the script and it's working great :D I only added a Staff List option, but I can add IRC. :)

i dont think winten or the admins would waste their time on this.:no:

Why not? I think it would be an excellent addition to the Navigation Bar. It could replace the 'New Posts' or 'Quick Links' tab, as I'm not sure how much traffic those get.

I use New Posts all the time. I just made a GreaseMonkey script that will do what you guys want. I already gave a copy to Epitaph so just pm me if you want it.
(you have to be using Firefox for it to work.)

You dont need a greasemonkey script.. Although it owns :D

But yeah this can be done straight away and very quickly

BTW mods are not meant to have template permissions only Admins should

Thanks for the support :)

I would suggest the staff list.

Bottom of the page, it's called "View Forum Leaders."
