everyone! What I'm trying to do is to get Joomla! to desplay the menu items in a nested ul menu, like this:
Item
Subitem
Item2
Subitem2
Sub Subitem
currently I'm using a custom HTML for this, I've written a custom jquery script for this accordion and I'd like to use it with the Joomla's menu system. I've also downloaded Extended Menu module. Please let me know of any ideas.
P.S forgot to say that I don't want to create a dropdown menu that works on hover. My menu should slide down on .click()
You are in luck. The standard Joomla mod_mainmenu module builds menus exactly like that. You can basically take the entire module, add some IDs and classes to suit your accordion code and add in the JS to have a fully functioning menu with minimal effort. Just to be sure, I moved some menu items around on one of my demo sites. Take a look at the Resources menu here - http://www.internextion.com/
That is a basic Joomla menu module with the items nested as you illustrated.

I have used menu block to display sub menu only when about in click and display sub menus in another layer.
Now my requirement is when i click on any sub menu in parent menu then the parent menu should be active. To achieve this task i searched a lot off and found menu position module for this purpose. I have configured and specify page path in Restricted to certain pages, but now it is now working. What i have mistake or any other solution for this problem. Please let me know the right solution.
<?php
$block = module_invoke('menu_block', 'block_view', '1');
print render($block['content']);
?>
I am adding this code below the topbar menu. but inside the menubar wrapper.
If my understanding clear then you will need this menu - Menu Position https://www.drupal.org/project/menu_position
This module allows for the creation of rules that will dynamically add the current page into the menu system at the requested spots.
If you dont want to use this module then you will need to append menu-id in the menu link's li and then through jquery / js will need to add certain classes to parent menu items.
Actually there is no requirement to use any module for this situation. What i have done to achieve it. I just modified template.php of zurb foundation theme. i have copied the code(foreach loop code) from here and added to the template.php file as mentioned in the page and added the css like below:
#main-menu li.active-trail a,
#main-menu li a.active, #main-menu li a:hover {
background:#fec325;
/* IE6-9 */
}
and that's it. i have achieve what i want. I hope anybody who is looking same kind of problem can find this solution useful for this kind of requirement.
how can I develop menu item for a single item at a joomla 2.5 component?
I develop menu item for category in my component but don't know how can
develop menu item for a single item from my category.
please help me
thank you
If you are referring to a single article from a category you would just use "single article" when creating a menu link. Then a new field will appear and you must select which article you want.
If you are referring to a component you need to make sure the component even allows the creation to the link you want. You do this the same way but instead of "single article" you would select the component then choose what links they offer as a menu link.
This refers to Joomla! 3.0+ for 2.5 or below you would see a full list without the show/hide effects in the menu selection modal.
If you use Joomla you know what I mean..
Hope this helps.
In the source code for a master page, there is a section that has the following ASP.NET item: . This contains the "Welcome (User Name)" and Site Actions menus.
How do I create an additional menu that is similar to the look and feel of the Welcome menu? I've tried to create Front End HTML that behaves similar to the out of the box SharePoint menus, but it isn't quite right. I would prefer to utilize an ASP.NET or SharePoint control that acts similar to the SharePoint menu if that is possible.
For example, is <SharePoint:AspMenu> the appropriate control to use?
Thanks,
Robert
i am sure you will get better answer than this but just wanted to point what i have done to do this
i have added javascript library (JQuery) (for some other reason ) and when time come to do this thing i just added a JQuery code that creates another item in the navigation list with appropriate style and css class with the needed link and caption.
You could try another instance of the PersonalActions control with a custom GroupId. But when the control is rendered, it might also say "Welcome, [User]" just like the original.
I added a new page in the main menu, e.g. Products. Now I want to add a subpage e.g. Sub Products below a Products page. I tried all possible options in the dashboard but it didn't work for me. Any ideas how to handle this?
Thanks.
here is a quick solution for this
Go to your dash board -->Gallery -->Modules
search for Hierarchical menu and install it
after installing then go to Configuration -->Features and enable it.
Go go to Navigation .give position like 2 for "Products" and 2.1 for "Sub products".
you will see Sub products appear under Products page.
As of Orchard CMS 1.5 this is supported by the core navigation module. Now you can simply drag and drop menu items under one another in the Admin -> Navigation view. You can then control level rendering under the widget settings for the menu by setting the "Start level" and "Levels to display" properties.
See release notes for further details.
The navigation documentation doesn't seem to be up to date though :(
Take a look at: http://orchard.codeplex.com/Thread/View.aspx?ThreadId=242327
The module to support this (along with many other modules) is available in Orchard's module gallery.
How can I customise the Site Actions menu to remove or rename 'standard' menu items? Where are the site actions menu items defined?
The site actions menu is defined in the Siteaction.xml in Template\layouts\editingMenu under the 12 hive. The following link shows how to manually remove items.
Customize Site Actions Menu
I have added options to the menu using features, but have never tried to hide OTB option in code. I would be interested in your results.
Good luck!
I was able to hide the menu item I wanted to hide by using ConfigMenu="Delete" in the relevant XML node of SiteActions.xml. e.g.
<ConsoleNode ConfigMenu="Delete" ChangedNodeID="wsaCreateSite" />
The valid values for ConfigMenu are documented at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.sharepoint.publishing.webcontrols.configmenuoptions.aspx
I have used a control that runs javascript to hide the entire site actions menu for users of a certain privelege level.
That approach may be an option if you need to remove items for particular users.
It is not the worlds classiest approach however.
