Does anyone know if you can put plg_menu_elements into a static page? If so how?

What are you really trying to do? plg_menu_elements is part of the header.thtml isn't it? So copy the code from lib-common's COM_siteHeader() where the content is generated into your static page.

Well I thought I asked if you could put the plg_menu_elements into a static page.
You know this tag.

Text Formatted Code
{plg_menu_elements}


Looks like it would be easier to create the links manually using Autotag.

Maybe I figure something else out.

Just by dumb luck, found this in the Professional theme Readme for putting Plugin menu items in a block.
Text Formatted Code

    $retval = '';
    $plugin_menu = PLG_getMenuItems();
    for( $i = 1; $i <= count($plugin_menu); $i++ )
    {
        $url = current($plugin_menu);
        $plg = key($plugin_menu);
        $retval .= '<a href="' . $url . '">' . $plg . '</a><br>';
        next( $plugin_menu );
    }
    return $retval;
 


Then after following the directions in "your_site/docs/staticpages.html#php" to turn on php for static pages, had a dropdown box with the choices:

do not execute PHP
execute PHP (return)
execute PHP

chose execute PHP and inserted above code.

HTH,

Chuck
Too many hands on my time.
