Replacing $primary_links with images and still have secondary_links display expanded

Posted by JoshLangner on August 3, 2006 at 7:56pm

I'm trying to replace the $primary_links with images in the Mollio theme and still have the secondary_links dropping down. Any ideas? So far, I have the following:

<!-- menu -->
<?php if(is_array($primary_links)) : ?>
<ul id="nav">
<?php
      $l2i['pattern'] = '$(<a.*>)(.*)(</a>)$ie';
      $l2i['themepath'] = url($directory);
      $l2i['replacement'] = "\"\\1\".'<img src=\"$l2i[themepath]/navbutton_'.strtolower('\\2').'.gif\" alt=\"\\2\">\\3'";
      foreach ($primary_links as $link) {
        print "<li>".preg_replace($l2i['pattern'],$l2i['replacement'],$link)."</li>\n";
      }
      unset($l2i);
      ?>
 </ul>
<?php endif; ?>
<!-- end menu -->

It works fine, except I'm not sure how to get the secondary_links to plug in. Any ideas?

That's the purpose of secondary links: They only show up if the parent primary link is activated. If you don't want it that way, you've to build your own theme functions in template.php.
