    Post Classified Page insted of dropdown

    Thanks for a cool template product
    I would like to have the button "post a classified" as a link in the header, so it will be calling a Page instead of having it like the "dropdown" it is in the latest version. Is there a way to fix this, the redo the form.php page to a Page template ?

    Hope someone has some input
    Thanks

    I totally agree with this idea.

    It would be much better since the sliding dropdown form doesn't work in all situations and the edit ad page template does.

    I agree... though it may be possible to do yourself. It appears the form is stored in post-form.php. Linking to it directly does nothing though.

    I'm attempting to do the same... if I have any luck, I may post my results.

    header.php

    Code:
                    <ul id="nav">
                        <?php if (is_page()) { $highlight = "page_item"; } else {$highlight = "page_item current_page_item"; } ?>
                        <li class="<?php echo $highlight; ?>">Home
                        <?php wp_list_pages('sort_column=menu_order&depth=0&title_li=&exclude='.get_option('excluded_pages')); ?> 
    					<li class="<?php echo $highlight; ?>"><?php _e('Post a Classified!','cp'); ?>[/list]

    Thanks, but that creates the dropdown effect. Looking for a direct link to a new page where the user would then fill in their information.
