Top Menu

Hello I was wondering how I would go about removing the main top menu.

I do not want a horizontal menu and I do not think it is associated with any modules that I can unpublish. I also tried to associate the menu with all unpublished items and I could not do that.

Many thanks

Spencer

Hi,
please go to: ../templates/gk_memovie/layouts/default.php

lines 11-12-13:

Code: Select all

<!-- MAIN NAVIGATION -->
<?php $this->loadBlock('mainnav') ?>
<!-- //MAIN NAVIGATION -->

quote/delete the line that calls the mainnav:

Code: Select all

<!-- MAIN NAVIGATION -->
/*<?php $this->loadBlock('mainnav') ?>*/
<!-- //MAIN NAVIGATION -->

I advise you to just quote it, so that u can eventually cut the expression and paste it where u want your main menu to appear (maybe on the left,right or even the extreme top) as u wish

regards

EDIT: WRONG CODE, REASON BELOW

Thanks for the help I couldn't find it where you suggested but it was in a file in the layouts folder.

yes it is,
but the path might be different according to your directory and stuff
and i just truncated it

it should be around:
/home/????/public_html/XXXX/templates/gk_memovie/layouts/default.php

anyway, I'm glad it helped

regards

it realy is not in this path.
i'll look for ti thogh, and update what the path is ( maybe not this file? )

ok, so an update.... in :
/public_html/templates/gk_memovie/layouts/blocks

find the file mainnav.php

there, find the code :

Code: Select all

<div id="gk-mainnav" class="clearfix">

   <?php if (($gkmenu = $this->loadMenu())) $gkmenu->genMenu ($this->getParam('startlevel',0), $this->getParam('endlevel',-1)); ?>

</div>

and comment it like this :

Code: Select all

<!--div id="gk-mainnav" class="clearfix">

   <!--?php if (($gkmenu = $this->loadMenu())) $gkmenu->genMenu ($this->getParam('startlevel',0), $this->getParam('endlevel',-1)); ?>

</div-->

this does the trick.

apologies
i must have mistaken default.php for header.php:
(templates/gk_memovie/layouts/blocks/header.php)

I just checked it, and it's definitely there in lines 11, 12, 13

but welcome anyway

OMG NO!
your hack is realy bad... (sorry )

a. you can comment with

Code: Select all

/* sdfdsf */

in a PHP code, you have to comment with

Code: Select all

<!-- sdfsd-->

b. your solution toatlly removes the HEADER, not just the main menu ...

i think my solution was still the best one for now...

I really don't know what to say,
apologies!

a. thanks for pointing this issue to me,
I never took a course in php,
but i try to manage myself for my site needs
and this, i never knew that commenting this way is wrong


b. when i suggested the code, i must have confused gk-mainnav with mainnav.php
I didn't try the code myself, i would have noticed my error if i did!
but i thought it worked, so i didn't give it a re-thought


and yes i agree,
ur solution is the best for now


sorry again

no need to apologize, this is the purpose of the forum,to learn from each other. You gave me the direction, i just finalized it .
