Vertical NavBar Now Available
Are you a member with a blog? Perhaps, you're a manager who has had little success inviting new members to your ring because the NavBar is so wide.
If so, you're going to love our latest addition to the system - a vertical NavBar!
The Horizontal NavBar Is the Default
Many of our members have already spent much time tweaking their site's design to accommodate the width of the horizontal NavBar. So as not to cause too much distress over the change, the horizontal NavBar will remain the default. This means you will need to choose to use the vertical version.
How to Choose the Vertical NavBar
If you have the SSNB version of the NavBar already installed, you don't need to reinstall the navigation code on your page. Here's what you need to do instead:
- Go to the URLs tab of your My Account page.
- Locate the URL on which you wish to use the vertical NavBar.
- Click the "edit settings" link below the URL.
- Scroll down and check the box next to this sentence: "Check here if you would like to use the vertical version of the navbar, if it's available."
- Scroll down and click the "change" button.
Now, all you need to do is move the NavBar to the sidebar on your blog or site. You don't need any new code, as long as you're using the SSNB version.
Note: Changes might not be reflected on your site until you refresh your browser or use the code checker.
Some RM's Can Choose Not to Offer a Vertical NavBar
Premium Ring Managers (WebRing 2.0) can opt to only offer either the horizontal or the vertical NavBar.
To do so, simply visit your navigation code customization page from your ring's management menu. Below your color options, you'll find checkboxes for "No vertical navbar -OR- No horizontal navbar." Check only one. If you've directly edited your NavBar, you'll need to revert the NavBar before you see these options.
Free members (WebRing 1.0) with grandfathered rings should also see this option. A grandfathered ring is one that was in existence before we launched the premium membership program. As soon as a ring transfers to a different manager, it loses grandfather rights.
Move those NavBars & Start Inviting
If you're a blogger, you can greatly increase your NavBar's effectiveness by moving the NavBar high up on your sidebar. Most of your regular blog readers never have a reason to scroll past the most recent posts. They rarely even notice your NavBar sitting all alone at the bottom of the page. Now they'll see it!
Have you sent countless invitations to bloggers to join WebRing only to have them deny you because the NavBar won't fit in their blog's sidebar? Now that they have the option to use the sleek vertical NavBar, you should consider re-inviting them.
