copy of main menu

Dear tech, Id like to have a different menu instead of "main menu" in my art section of the website (http://sapegin.server308.com/index.php/other). I tried to find the corresponding menu module but to no avail. Also, im not sure what template position the main menu is in.

Also, is there a way to adjust the height of that top position, where the main menu sits?

Thanks!

Hi

GK Menu (do not make confusion with mainmenu) cannot be replicated on same template and there's not position for this tool.
What you can do is duplicated the template (joomla! 2.5 allows this) and assign this "copy" of the template on specific menu items. You have this option on each menu item (Template Style).

In conclusion, the menu will be the same, but each menu item will have their template.

About the css issue, you can try using this line(e.g.) on css:

Code: Select all

#gkPageWrap {padding-top: 14px!important}

Cheers

I copied the template (gk_fashion - art), assigned it to the "other" page from "Work done" menu. Assigned the "test" button in the main menu to this template (gk_fashion - art). However, the "test" button still appears on every page, not only on "other" page as planned. Can you please provide step by step instructions? Thanks!

Hi again

Here's detail instructions:

1) Go to template manager, select gk_fashion template and click on "duplicate"

2) You now have gk_fashion 2 . Click on this template to change parameters.

3) On gk_fashion 2 parameters, go to menu options and select the menu that you want to display on this template. For my example i will use "Categories menu"

4) Go to "Menus > Mainmenu" and to create a new link that will be used to "jump" from gk_fashion to gk_fashion 2. Actually i will called "Jumplink"

5) On the "Jumplink" menu parameters, set template style to gk_fashion 2 and save.

6) Open frontpage and now you will see the "Jumplink" on mainmenu. Click on this link and see what happens

7) You now have "Categories Menu" instead of "MainMenu".

You can do the same on "Categories Menu" by creating a new Jumplink to return to "Mainmenu" menu that uses gk_fashion template.

That's it
