views/default/navigation/topbar_tools.php

you'll need to tweak the code inside the loop that spits out the menu items

      <?php
            foreach($alphamenu as $item) {
                echo "<li><a href=\"{$item->value}\">" . $item->name . "</a></li>";
            }
     ?>

I think this is to be done to my theme right? nevermind it's not in there.  this is a change to a core file right?

nope right where i said above

i checked yr theme to make sure no conflict ;-)

u r safe

you can come here

path/to/elgg'root/views/default/pageshells

then edit pageshell.php

just delete or # <?php echo elgg_view('page/element/spotlight',$vars);?>

the spotlight will be never seen !

you can use this plugin extinguish spotlight

Hi, new to elgg. I am trying to build a site with social community in mind. Peeple can join groups, and upload photos. But I have stucked on how to layout the plugin/module on the site in order to skin them. I would like to build a theme by myself though. Just need some guidance on how to build a theme from scrtach. Anyone can help?

Easy way to do your own theme. Go to the theme page download a theme. I used the Theme_elgg_example and then just go in an modify Theme/views/default/css.php and run through that file. If you arent sure what each part is then change the color to FFAAFF and look for it. Something will do nothing but with some time you can figure out what is where and how to change it. Hope this helps.

Thank you so much. I will download the example right away, and start modify. Will come back if i stuck again. Thanks.

Are there any  tutorial for elggs?

Hi,

I am new in elgg. How to i just show friend's username instead of their profile/icon?

For example the code below:

foreach($friends as $friend)
                {
                    echo elgg_view("profile/icon",array('entity' => get_user($friend->guid), 'size' => $size));
                }

How to i change it just to show name only?

Thanks for the advice.

I'm having a .htaccess redirect or rewrite, i successfully redirected my domain name to my subfolder (ex.www.mysite.com/subfolder into www.mysite.com)

This is my .htaccess on my rootdirectory of my site (www.mysite.com)

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?mysite\.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/subfolder/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ subfolder/$1 [L]

but the thing is, whenever i click the link to my other pages of my site it will display my subfolder name again in my domain name

(ex.www.mysite.com/subfolder/pg/photos/view/133/photo)

(ex.www.mysite.com/subfolder/pg/dashboard/),

has anyone figured out what's the best solution for this.?

I think it has something to do with the " .htaccess in my elgg root directory"
