Six theme questions

[djpete]

I am not familiar with hooks although I managed to add a few tests from your examples.

But I am not using Six until there is more info and cheats for this.

I went through all the documentation but could not find a hook to add a simple main menu item to the client area. It showed me how to add a submenu but not a main menu item.

 

Also if I use six can I remove or disable the client shortcuts entirely to cpanel as I really don't want my customers getting in there.

 

thanks.

 

I do like the more refined cleaner look of the admin area. Best it's ever looked

This will add a new menu to navbar only viewable by logged in customers.

 

<?php

use WHMCS\View\Menu\Item as MenuItem;

add_hook('ClientAreaPrimaryNavbar', 1, function (MenuItem $primaryNavbar)
{
   $client = Menu::context('client');

   if (!is_null($client)) {
       $primaryNavbar->addChild('Example')
           ->setUri('https://www.example.com/')
           ->setOrder(100);
   }
});

 

Just add this to a hook file.

 

 

And for the new cpanel sign on feature here is the docs .

many thanks. I want it to be visible all the time.

All I want to do is add a link next to the Home link that says Main Website like I have on the old template

[thekdoherty]

I would like to do the same. Did you get this resolved?

[djpete]

This worked for me..

 

<?php

use WHMCS\View\Menu\Item as MenuItem;

add_hook('ClientAreaPrimaryNavbar', 1, function (MenuItem $primaryNavbar)
{
   $client = Menu::context('client');

{
       $primaryNavbar->addChild('Main Website')
           ->setUri('http://www.hostingwebdesign.com.au/')
           ->setOrder(1);
   }
});

How do I remove some buttons in the main nav?

How do I remove some buttons in the main nav?

 

http://docs.whmcs.com/Client_Area_Navigation_Menus_Cheatsheet#Hiding.2FRemoving_a_Menu_Item

[djpete]

yep saw that but it removes a submenu item.

I need to remove a main menu item.

 

I go this to work but I would like the code correct please..

 

<?php

 

use WHMCS\View\Menu\Item as MenuItem;

 

add_hook('ClientAreaPrimaryNavbar', 1, function (MenuItem $primaryNavbar)

{

if (!is_null($primaryNavbar->removeChild('Open Ticket'))) {

 

}

});

[brian!]

take a look at the code below - one part of it removes a main item menu...

 

http://docs.whmcs.com/Editing_Client_Area_Menus#Move_the_.E2.80.9CContact_Us.E2.80.9D_link_to_the_secondary_navigation_bar_and_add_more_contact_options

[djpete]

added this.

broke it..

 

<?php

 

add_hook('ClientAreaNavbars', 1, function ()

{

// Save the "Contact Us" link and remove it from the primary navigation bar.

$contactUsLink = $primaryNavbar->getChild('Announcements');

$primaryNavbar->removeChild('Announcements');

});

[brian!]

remove the $contactuslink line - does it work then?

[djpete]

this not working either..broke it

 

<?php

 

add_hook('ClientAreaNavbars', 1, function ()

{

$primaryNavbar->removeChild('Announcements');

});

[djpete]

well I have decided to leave the Announcement link anyway.

 

Can someone double check this code though?

I just want to make sure it is 100% correct.

It does work but I made it so want to make sure it's right.

 

<?php

 

use WHMCS\View\Menu\Item as MenuItem;

 

add_hook('ClientAreaPrimaryNavbar', 1, function (MenuItem $primaryNavbar)

{

if (!is_null($primaryNavbar->removeChild('Open Ticket'))) {

 

}

});

[brian!]

it was very late at night, so I was being less helpful than usual!

 

to remove an item from the navbar, you could use the following...

 

<?php

add_hook('ClientAreaNavbars', 1, function ()
{
   // Get the current navigation bars.
   $primaryNavbar = Menu::primaryNavbar();
   $primaryNavbar->removeChild('Announcements');
});

[djpete]

thank you. I decided to use the Announcements page now.

 

Does this look ok to you?

It works but just want the code right..

 

<?php

 

use WHMCS\View\Menu\Item as MenuItem;

 

add_hook('ClientAreaPrimaryNavbar', 1, function (MenuItem $primaryNavbar)

{

if (!is_null($primaryNavbar->removeChild('Open Ticket'))) {

 

}

});

and here's the end result with quite a few tweaks..

Is there a way to simply change the logo from the WHMCS to my business logo?

[lee-wservices]

Find the logo for six template here whmcsroot>/templates/six/img/logo.png

[wpehosting]

I've done just that, and it's not switching it over.

[djpete]

are you using that theme?

Did you maybe make a custom theme?

Are you in the right directory?

[rodeoXtreme]

I know this s probably a really dumb question but I have to ask this. I used the Social Media example and successfully created a hook and menu for it.

 

I attempted to create another Sub menu in our Services but I have no idea what to name the php file in the hooks directory. The doc reference hooks but what to name the file?

 

Whenever I create a hook file (*php) and add the example code The client area page is blank. When I remove the php file the page properly displays.

Maybe its me, but dont you think that menu manipulation should be when it comes to theming (not module based) should be in the templates? I understand that moduels should be able to modify menus as well, but I think there should be able to be hooks within template folders as well if thats how you expect menus to be modified.
