Hi,

My goal is to remake menubar.tpl. I only need it to display a few albums and their subalbums, the searchbar and login. I don't need any random pictures, no specialty links, no plugin links future or present; just the albums are important.

It would look like (albums on mouseover):

Album1 | Album 2 | Album3      [Search] [login]
Sub          Sub          Sub
Sub          Sub          Sub
Sub          Sub          Sub

The trouble is, I don't know how to make a query to fetch the dynamic list of albums and which subalbums belong to it.

I pulled this from mbSpecials in the existing menubar.tpl, so I'd imagine it would resemble this, but how it sorts out parent/child albums is beyond me.

<dd>
  <ul>{strip}
    {foreach from=$block->data item=link}
    <li><a href="{$link.URL}" title="{$link.TITLE}"{if isset($link.REL)} {$link.REL}{/if}>{$link.NAME}</a></li>
    {/foreach}
    {if isset($blocks.mbMenu)}
    <hr>
    {foreach from=$blocks.mbMenu->data item=link}{if is_array($link)}
    <li><a href="{$link.URL}" title="{$link.TITLE}"{if isset($link.REL)} {$link.REL}{/if}>{$link.NAME}</a>{if isset($link.COUNTER)} ({$link.COUNTER}){/if}</li>
    {/if}{/foreach}
    {/if}
  {/strip}</ul>
</dd>

I'd like to have used the Advanced Menubar plugin, but support is slow there and the issue I asked about kept placing extra links in the dropdown boxes and I only need simple links. Any help would be appreciated.
