2 Site Issues (Navbar related)

Permalink
Right now I am in the process of fleshing out the final pre-content skeleton for our site. I am trying to fix two issues:

1. The Logo imglink on the top navbar on the left is dead (note: the href is temporarily going to another location rather than top of the page)
2. I can not seem to add a footer nav bar at all. I have tried numerous coding styles to accomplish it to no avail.

The link for the site is below:

Any and all suggestions are greatly welcomed

Q 1. Go to the image block and set image link to Another Page. Then all you have to do is choose the Home page as the link. Simple.

Q 2. Have you tried putting it in the footer.php file? That is what I would recommend. There may be a addon to do this.

Make it a custom block. In your footer.php file. Make your footer something like this:
<footer class="container">
       <?php  $a = new Area('Footer'); 
      $a->display($c); 
      ?>
    </footer>
<?php  Loader::element('footer_required'); ?>
</body>
</html>


And for your logo, something like this: 
<div id="logo">
           <a href="<?php  echo DIR_REL?>/" class="simple-logo-block">
            <?php
         $a = new GlobalArea('Logo');
         $a->display();
         ?>


You can use the 
new GlobalArea
to make it global for your site. And you can delete 
<a href="<?php  echo DIR_REL?>/" class="simple-logo-block">
if you want your own link.

Let me know if this helps or not

These solutions helped, however, when tampering with the elements files I managed to mess-up my edit bar (i.e. it is blank so i can't edit). I eliminated the jQuery in the navbar to see if that javascript was interfering to no avail. Anyone see what is going on?

Herp, nevermind fixed it. I had header and footer _required parts in both the default.php and in the header and footer .php's.

Interesting layout bpbuild!

For the footer, have you looked at the Static Footer addon http://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/static-footer/... by JB1 ?
I use this on a clients site and was really happy with how easy it was to style and integrate. Using this would keep your footer visible throughout the scrolling page styles of your site.
