Top horizontal menu v1.3 & CMS HELP

[carosbella]

Hi,

 

I need help with the top horizontal menu. Basically, i have a page that is named "NEW IN" ( or NEW PRODUCTS) I wish for this to be linked to new-products.php.

 

How can i edit the code? where can i find the code?

 

Also can i create a HOME button on the menu such that when it is clicked, it returns to the main page of my website.

 

I have added the picture for reference.

 

Thanks for the help...

Ok, i solved the first part of the question. I just need to go to Modules > Top Horizontal Menu > Configure > Add Menu Top Link. I added in NEW ARRIVALS, and the link as "new-products.php". And it works!!

 

So how do I redirect to my main page? i do not know what to input the link as.. index.htm sounds wrong to me..

Label: Home (or what ever you want to call your main page)

 

Link: index.php

 

Then add. Then find it in the right hand window at the top, selected it & click add to move it to the left window showing what's on your menu bar.

hi dazza, appreciate your help..

 

just to clarify.. what does this part means? "Then find it in the right hand window at the top, selected it & click add to move it to the left window showing what's on your menu bar. "

See picture attached.

After adding your link index.php it should appear in the top right window.

Select it & click add under the right window & it will appear in the left window.

Links in the left window are the links that appear on your top menu on the site.

Hi Dazzza,

 

Thanks for the help man!

 

Do you happened to know how I can centralize the whole top horizontal menu??

[dazzza]

In /modules/blocktopmenu/css/superfish-modified.css around line 15 increase margin-left to what ever you need.

.sf-menu {
   border-top: 0 dotted #EFEFEF;
   float: left;
   height: 38px;
   line-height: 1.2;
   margin-bottom: 0.8em;
   margin-left: -6px;
   margin-top: -11px;
   padding: 0 1em;
   width: 965px;
}

 

to

.sf-menu {
   border-top: 0 dotted #EFEFEF;
   float: left;
   height: 38px;
   line-height: 1.2;
   margin-bottom: 0.8em;
   margin-left: 40px;
   margin-top: -11px;
   padding: 0 1em;
   width: 965px;
}

 

Depending on how many links you have on the menu, if you only have 4 then you may need to increase the left margin to 100px or 200px.

Sorry for budding in on this topic...

I want to add new links in the top menu but even though I create a new menu link and click ADD it doesn't show up in the right window so I can add it to the left window. (It's there in the List Menu Top Link but without Label and refuses to show up in the above right window.)

Anyone know why?

I have done this many times before and it has always worked fine but not now.

Very frustrating and confusing.

Any help appreciated,

Hi annalin,

I really don't know what the problem can be. Sounds like a glitchy module.

Sorry I can't be more help
