Create New Menu Block (No, not using Advanced Menu Manager)

Hello Everyone,

I'm at my wits end here.  I've had good luck developing several plugins now and I'm getting pretty familiar with the process.  I want to do up a small plugin that creates a new menu block called 'Help' and I do not want to do this using Advanced Menu Manager (which doesn't seem to work with Bootstrap Darkroom anyway).

I need the php for this process.  It looks to me like the thing to do is  register the new block and then apply it on the blockmanager_apply event, but this is not working.

I've emulated this process after studying the Additional Pages plugin, but I can't get it to work.  Here's what I have so far, any help is appreciated:

QUICK SIDE NOTE:  This is commented out because it causes an error 500 from my web server.  Not sure what that's about.  //$menu->apply('MENUBAR',  'menubar_welcome.tpl' );


Here's what I have; thanks in advance:

function register_default_menubar_blocks2($menu_ref_arr)
{

  $menu = & $menu_ref_arr[0];
  if ($menu->get_id() != 'menubar')
    return;
  $menu->register_block( new RegisteredBlock( 'mbWelcome', 'Welcome', 'piwigo'));
}

include_once(PHPWG_ROOT_PATH.'include/block.class.php');


/**
* Setups each block the main menubar.
*/
function initialize_menu2()
{
  //global $page, $conf, $user, $template, $filter;

  $menu = new BlockManager("menubar");
  $menu->load_registered_blocks();
  $menu->prepare_display();

  if ( ($block=$menu->get_block('mbWelcome')) != null )
  {

    // about link
    $block->data['about'] =
      array(
        'TITLE'     => l10n('About Piwigo'),
        'NAME'      => l10n('About'),
        'URL' => get_root_url().'about.php',
      );

    $block->template = 'menubar_welcome.tpl';
  }
//--------------------------------------------------------------- identification

  //$menu->apply('MENUBAR',  'menubar_welcome.tpl' );
}

add_event_handler('blockmanager_register_blocks', 'register_default_menubar_blocks2');
add_event_handler('blockmanager_apply', 'initialize_menu2');
