My pleasure! Here's the trick. Go to any built-in asset on Ning, like Photos, Videos, Forums, Groups, etc... Take notice to the drop down box. And, take notice to the links at the top of the page. All of those links can be accessed via a tab. It gives your members easy access, and encourages them to check things out! ;-)
Best to you,
Jen

Jen, My Drop Down Tabs look more orderly now, thanks. But I have a question: Can one or a couple of groups, like featured groups, be singled out and put in drop down tabs? This would help with people coming to my site looking for dogs to adopt listings and keep them from searching around if they don't want to join. Just a thought. Lynne

Hi DoodleRescue,
If you mean adding Featured Groups (an actual list of your Featured Groups), within the drop-down, at top of Group page (for example) - - Ning's drop-downs are not customizable. Not this type of drop-down. It can be done. But, the limitations are great, when customizing Ning code.

I think your idea is great, though. Maybe I can come up with a way to add a menu via the Language Editor, that would accomplish something like this. I'll sure let you know, if I do.

Happy Easter,
Jen

Thanks and Happy Easter to you also.

I am not that experienced with "customizing Ning code" but if you made it as easy as you did the Alpha Members Listing...that I understood. LOL
