Disabling "Front Page" link in #showPageMenu

Hi,

I'm hosting Roller on my own server and there is only one blog on it.   
The #showPageMenu velocity command outputs "Front Page", "Weblog", and 
"Login".  In my setup, the first two links bring the user to my blog.   
Is it possible to disable "Front Page" in Roller so that only "Weblog" 
and "Login" show up?


Thanks,
Ryan

New Registered Users Disabled by Default?

Posted by Andrew Smalera <as...@hotmail.com>.

Hi,
Is there a way to say that users who just registered have disabled accounts 
by default?  That way as an admin I can check and verify registrations 
before a new user can start blogging.

Also is there a way to say that users can't create new blog entries (only 
use existing ones that I've created and assigned to them).

Thanks,
Andrew

Perfect, thank you!

I've been working on creating a new Roller theme based on a sharp 
template from styleshoot.  It's almost finished.  There is a button 
effect that I can't do 100% accurately to the theme (even after fiddling 
with the CSS for hours) because of the very few tags in that menu bar.  
It would be most helpful to theme developers if at least one of these 
two things could be added to Roller's default output: (not just on my 
installation)

1) Change the menu bar list items from:

   <li class="rNavItem">
       <a href="$url.site/">$config.siteShortName</a>
   </li>

to have a span inside of the a link:

   <li class="rNavItem">
      <a href="$url.site/"><span>$config.siteShortName</span></a>
   </li>

2) If Roller knows that one of these list items is currently being 
displayed (such as Front Page or Weblog), then add either an id or class 
of "current" to the list item.

3) On the comments form, the buttons have a class of "button" which is 
very helpful.  On the search form, the button does not have a class of 
"button" so it gets styled differently.

Should I create a ticket for this?  Do you think the Roller developers 
would consider such a change?

Thanks,
Ryan

You can disable it by changing the #showPageMenu macro
in /web-inf/velocity/weblog.vm . Remove the following
lines:

        <li class="rNavItem">
            <a
href="$url.site/">$config.siteShortName</a>
        </li>
