We are having a difficult time getting a 2 column drop down menu to work.

Please see the site at http://www.cansolutions.ca/dev/

The menu that we would like to be 2 columns is "Products --> Installed Garden Sheds"

Any help would be appreciated

Hi,
This is possible --> You need to use our Menu Parameters plugin and set amount mark items as group. More about menu configuration you will find here >> http://www.gavick.com/magazine/gavern-framework–menu.html

If you don't have this feature in Menu Manager please download gk_creativity_rest_files_J!25.zip
there you will find plugin called "plg_gkextmenu.zip" - install & enable

We are still not able to get the menu to split into 2 columns. I have attached 2 photos showing our settings and the result.

Well... we have tried absolutely everything. Unfortunately it does not seem to want to cooperate for us. Guess we will have to move on to another template/provider.

Thank you for trying to help us.

Hi there,

We just tried to do a fresh installation of this template using the QuickStart installer (joomla 3.x)

We then made the changes to a menu item like you suggested and are still getting the same results. Would you be able to login to our admin area and see what is happening???

We really love this template and would like to use it for our growing business!

If you would like I am available on skype - martylangen

We are at a complete loss here. We completed another fresh installation of the quickstart template. And are still unable to get the desired results with the 2 column sub menu.

We are willing to PAY MORE to have this looked at / resolved!

Here are a couple of screen captures of the results we are receiving.

I am available on skype at martylangen to discuss.

I have also provided a couple of moderators with the admin area login details.

If someone could get back to us that would be great!

Again, we are willing to PAY EXTRA to have this resolved

Hi

There is no need for extra payment. You did everything properly, but I see a strange issue in Your template. Looks like something is affecting menu and 220px of column width times 2 is not equal 440px. Please send me an ftp access so I'll see where the problem is and will fix it.

Any progress on this? or should we keep looking for an outsider to try to resolve?

Hi

Yes. I was able to fix it by adding 2px extra to the layer holding columns, but I've noticed that files for menu has a recent modification date. Have anything be done in this code ? Because issue itself is a little strange.

What I did:
in file /js/gkmenu.js line 47

Code: Select all
                       var prevw = content.width();


added 2 extra pixels to the width by replacing above line with:

Code: Select all
                       var prevw = content.width() + 2;
