Hi,

Could someone provide a dummys step by step guide to assigning new content/modules to menu links to scroll on the home page? I've looked at the documentation but i'm not following it 100%.

Any help appreciated, thanks!

You need to understand a little bit of html and get to know firebug or chrome DevTools.

Menu links to ID's of html elements. Each module gets its unique ID, you just need to find it.
Here is an info on using Firebug/Chrome Dev Tools:
http://www.gavick.com/documentation/joo ... -size-etc/
It is about changing spaces and colors, but You can use this technique to find closest element to your module that have unique ID.
Once you have an ID - use it as anchor link.

The best idea would be to demonstrate it on working site, so could You please post an url to your site and write what would you like to link to?

Hi,

Thanks, I know how to find module ID's etc, what is unclear is what I do to enable the scrolling behaviour. What and where needs to be applied to Joomla to enable the scrolling? For example, I note the URL in the demo package for each module on the home page is the module position name, but in my site, this appears to do nothing now I have moved modules around. Are there any other steps to enable a module to be scrollable?

The site I am working on is http://www.natalieandreou.com

Thanks in advance,

Bob

Ok, i see you have did some changes.
1. You have and ID: "gkTop1", but in menu you have used: "#gktop1" - size of letters matters.
2. To edit menu items - just go to menu editor and change anchors to correct ones.
3. Correct anchors are: #gkTop1 for about, #gkBottom1 for contact.
4. You cant link to gallery in easy way. You should put it in another module position (for example top2) then you will have #gkTop2 anchor
