WordPress MU

I've searched everywhere for this answer, don't see it so here is the question:

I inserted wp_footer() in admin-footer.php and it shows the menu items at the bottom of the admin screens in wpmu. What do I need to add in order to have it show the menu as it normally would at the top? How do I point it to the style sheet? Everything I see makes me think this should be working.

Thanks!

what're you trying to do by putting wp_footer() at admin-footer.php???

well I am trying to add the admin bar to the admin panel as I said in my question.

It does succeed in doing this only it's not formatted properly and I can't find where the mapping to the style sheet is getting lost.

the best way is using the firebug plugin of firefox. you can find the CSSs of admin panel at wp-admin\css unless you use some plugin to change the admin panel. If you use any plugin the look for the css at plugin folder.

But as I told at the beginning, best way to find out is firebug plugin of Firefox.

Are you trying to add an admin bar in the backend or one to the front side of the blogs?

In 2.7 there's already an admin bar.

I want to add it to the backend.

I use an Admin bar based on http://www.bigalex.it/plugins/adminbar/

With the following...
Front end template hooks:

add_action('wp_footer', 'add_wpadminbar');
add_action('wp_head', 'add_wpadminbar_style');

and backend admin hooks:

add_action('admin_head', 'add_wpadminbar_style');
add_action('admin_footer', 'add_wpadminbar');

Ok I finally fixed this on my own, for those who search and find this the solution to the problem is to insert not only <?php wp_footer(); ?> in the admin_footer.php but also insert <?php wp_head(); ?> into admin_header.php, both files are in the wp-admin folder and this will add your admin bar to your backend just like it shows up in your themes.

Why add duplicate hooks to core admin files if hooks are already there? Why can't your adminbar use existing admin hooks instead?
