customize questions
I am brand new to MyBB and I am trying to make my mybb my own.
So I have some basic, fundamental customization questions.
First of all, the location of the MyBB on my site, arguemax.com
is not on the root. There is something else I have in mind for
the root of the web site. And I would like to offer in the "Quick menu"
the opportunity for the user to go to the root of arguemax.com as
seen lacking in the left side of this screenshot:

Where do I add this. I looked around the admin pages and I did
not see where I can add to this popup menu.
I also dug into the php code. I have to tip my hat to the makers of
this php code. It is well written but finding the sweet spot using
a grep-like too like findstr is not an easy way to go. Also, the
code has a lot of loaded pages. So finding a specific place to
do some modification is daunting and posting a simple question in
a forum (like this) looks like a better way to get results first.
My next question is this. "Quick menu" should be "Quick Menu" if I
am to follow any sort of title uniformity style. Where do I make
this change?
My next question is this. At the bottom of this page is a cool
little language switching menu. I would like one there and one
also at the top of the page. How do I do that?
My next question is this. I want to have an extra page in the
registration process. When the user signs up and clicks on the
"Submit Registration", I want there to be an intermediacy page
before the user clicks to finally start the registration process.
My final question for now is this. When the user chooses to
register/sign up for this forum and goes to the member page
to do so, I want the user to see two buttons at the bottom of
this page. Alongside the "Submit Registration" I want there to
be an "About" button that the user can click on.
The advice I have gotten so far is"
: "You need to add the proper links in a simple CSS menu, into the header template."
I went to
http://arguemax.com/mybb/mybb_1408/Upload/index.php
and took a look at the source and found these interesting lines:
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="http://arguemax.com/mybb/mybb_1408/Upload/cache/themes/theme3/global.css" />
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="http://arguemax.com/mybb/mybb_1408/Upload/cache/themes/theme3/leopard.css" />
What is interesting is the fact that these files do not exist on my local drive.
are they built on the fly somehow by the php code?
I took a look at these files and they describe color and position but not the content of any menus.
I have the feeling that these two css files are built on the fly on the server somehow.
So looking back at the generated source code, I have found this:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://arguemax.com/mybb/mybb_1408/Upload/jscripts/popup_menu.js?ver=1400"></script>
I opened this file and I came to a dead end.
looking at the uncompiled index.php is not any help either. I do not see any header template being loaded.
