How do I make a link to another board that I have, but place the link in the bar next to "control panel", "forum list" "my stuff", etc.

www.backofthenet.com (not my site) has this and I think its a good feature to have.

Thank you for the fast response, but you are assuming that I know how to find that file. Can I assume that its somewhere in control panel? Can you lead me in the direction?

Thank you

Yes, you can edit it via the cp, under display options, templates. I usually ftp the file down found in the templates folder in ubb files, make changes, rename the one on the server to header_orig.tpl than upload the header.tpl I edited. This way you always have the original in case something goes wrong.

I found the file but I didn't see anything that I could modify that was related to that look related to that panel. Is there a file within this file that I have to modify?
