    I am trying to figure out a couple of things on the web interface. For one

    If you're using webv4 (which the rest of my reply will assume), configuration and customization info is on the wiki:

    http://wiki.synchro.net/config:webv4
    http://wiki.synchro.net/custom:webv4

    I seen people use Menu button how is that enabled? Also how do I add a

    Menu button where?

    There's an fTelnet menu bar & button that can be enabled and disabled in the [web] section of ctrl/modopts.ini:

    ftelnet_menubar = true

    If you mean a dropdown menu at the top of your page, that's described under "Pages" here:

    http://wiki.synchro.net/custom:webv4#components

    sidebar of doors and links? Thanks

    Create a .html, .xjs, or .ssjs file in your webv4/mods/sidebar directory and put your content in there. See the "Sidebar Modules" section here for slightly more detail:

    If I add a page called mylinks.links and put it in sidebar directory it

    You can put '.link' (not '.links') files in the pages directory, but not in the sidebar directory. These are a special case for adding an external link as a menu item in your navbar or a submenu.

    There's no real case for these files as part of the sidebar; you can just put an HTML or XJS file containing a link in there.
