Help putting fb connect in menu bar

I'd like to put a small facebook connect icon in the menu bar next to the join and login buttons, but can't find the file and location to do so. 

 

Help is appreciated!

You could do so by putting your html here

templates/base/login_join.html.

Good Luck :)

Your going to need to provide a screen shot of exacty where you want it. My facebook connect module that i have in the market includes instructions for buttons at 3 different locations for dolphin 7.1. Two different locations for older versions of dolphin. http://www.boonex.com/m/Deanos_Facebook_Connect_Version_2_0

1) Above the logon box if you have it on the home page. As shown here on my demo site. http://www2.deanbassett.com/

2) In the splash area on the home page. http://www2.deanbassett.com/

3) In the sub menu area of all other pages. Example here. http://www2.deanbassett.com/browse.php

There is another area where a logon and join appear. But that is a text menu and is not designed for buttons. So i do not have code for that area.

So you need to be very specific.

Yes, sorry for not being very specific.  I created a box above the login box on the homepage for it which works fine.  I'd like to add it to "3) the sub-menu area of all other pages"

I often point people from my facebook page to forums etc. and this would give them a convenient option to login and interact.

This has been modified for the default boonex version of facebook connect.

To install this button, open and edit
templates/base/login_join.html

Look for this line at the top.

<div class="sys_tm_login_join">

Add this line right after it.

<div style="background-image:none;background-image: url(<bx_url_root />modules/facebook_connect/templates/base/images/fbconnectbutsm.png);width:103px;height:39px;float:left;margin-right:2px;cursor:pointer;" onclick="window.open ('<bx_url_root />modules/?r=facebook_connect/login_form','_self');"></div>


You will need to modify whats in red to the actual URL of your button image.

You may also need to change the height and width to match that of your button as well.

You also need to clear the dolphin cache after the changes are made.

Thanks Deano, just what I needed!  That's where I was trying to add it before, but my code was off.  Was just showing a ";" button lol and it didn't link to anything.  Looks and works good now.  I appreciate the help
