Re: boardurl in .tpl files ?

You don't mean option in
» Administration » Settings » Setup
Add your own links to the main navigation menu
?

If you just want to add links in .tpl you need to use html <a href .... etc></a> I believe...
also add style properties if you're wrapping it in a <div> via .css

Unless you're trying to achieve something else I can't imagine smile

and add there

<link rel="stylesheet" src="[FORUM_URL]/styles/oxygen/oxygen.css"/>

Ah, I see

BTW: You can set the style of admin area via profile settings of the admin... so if you set oxygen for board in general and "yourstlye" for admin - you'd achieve same result I imagine...
of course then anyone else could use that style aswell on your board....

sorry , thats not good enough i dont want my user to use other skins

here is the solution :

header.php line 177 just add :

$gen_elements['<!-- forum_url -->'] = $base_url;

and you can use <!-- forum_url --> in .tpl files
