Menu bar at the top of the blog

[Guest]

Was wondering any1 know how to write a menu bar at the top of the blog for quicklinks?

kind of like what otakustudy has at the top of his blog:

http://www.otakustudy.com/

not sure exactly what it will be. probably to quicklink to all the major articles in the recent past

or it could be tag filter or category filter

it would be nice to have the search bar right at the top as well.

(in exchange i can put a little Ad at the top right saying who wrote it and with a link?)

You're using wordpress right now right? I think there is a bar at the top for logged in users already, can you just stick something underneath it.

Well I'm not 100% sure, but I think Wordpress would allow custom menus. You would just need someone to probably add a menu and stylize it via. CSS.

<div id=topmenubar><a href='link1'>Link 1 title</a><a href='link2'>Link 2 title</a> ... </div>

That will give you a line of links. Then add some CSS somewhere to change how that looks.

Or you could just View Source on that site and copy the pieces you want...

Adding a bar like that isn't the problem, it's managing its contents in some way or the other, so you either have to reuse existing WP features, find a plugin for that or create one / hack it in yourself.

EDIT: Very crude makeup of that top bar:

found some stuff

there's a plugin for noobs as well

That plugin seems to be simple enough, just have to style it accordingly afterwards.

Ahahaha. Clearfix can look good in some instances I guess.
