Menu

Hello!
I've changed my joomla template to Writer - it looks great, and I am still configuring it, but I can't achieve the same menu (insert) as it is in the demo. I was trying many different settings, but I still can't reach the original from demo.

Could you please help, and let me know what code should I use?
thanks,
kalixo

Could you please post an url to your site?

I've sent the access data by private message.

Thanks,
Kalixo

Please verify if the problem is not caused by polish characters in menu names.

If this not help, could you please create a backup of all files (zipped) and database so I can debug locally and verify whats wrong?

Dear Cyberek, I've change that. nothing happened. I even turned off menu from the template and added two menus in modules in position = menu_top.

Dear Cyberek,
full backup is 4.39 Gb.
I think that few minutes of some errors on the website won't harm anyone Feel free to debug in real time.
Let me know when you finish, I'll turn on cashing plugin again.

Thanks!

and I'm nore it's connected with two other things:
1. my template doesn't have "copyrigths" position.
2. https://www.gavick.com/forums/writer-jo ... tion-48891

thanks again.

Please do last one thing - upload the template to server again - maybe during the upload some of the files were damaged?

ok, it helped with the bottom positon (I must undo changes that I've done in item.php), but it didn't help with the menu and "copyright" position
Any other ideas?

Maybe I could ovverride existing css for those menus?

Please create a dump of sql database and send it to me via PM (use any free temporary file hosting service), then I'll copy all the files on my own, I need to reproduce this issue on local server to be able to degug it.
After that please send me a PM with:
1. URL to your website
2. login and password of user with admin/super-admin privileges (please create one for me)
3. ftp data (host, user, password)
4. link to this thread
5. Write back here when you do all above.

I haven't receive any followup. Do you still need any help with this issue?

Dear Moderator, Yes, I will prepare everything that you've asked for.
I am still trying to clean every error that I got on my website to ensure that is not made by other module.

Thanks for asking.
Kalixo

Ok thanks, please write back as soon as you deal with it .

Basically, everything is almost correct, all you need to do is instead of creating more than one menu - create only one and use child elements to arrange the menu. Doing so will create the desired view.

Dear Cyberek
thank you, now everything works as a charm
Unfortunatly I still can't find "copyrights" module position.. Could you please check it?
Thanks in advance,
Kalixo

It seems like a bug in one of our files, please edit this file:
templates/gk_writer/templateDetails.xml
and find this part:

Code: Select all

                    <!-- Template specific Module Positions -->
                    <position>breadcrumb</position>
                    <position>login</position>
                    <position>footer_nav</position>
                    <position>sidebar</position>
                    <position>mainbody</position>
                    <position>lang</position>
                    <position>menu_top</position>
                    <position>menu_bottom</position>
                    <position>social</position>
                    <position>search</position>
                    <position>top</position>
                    <position>bottom</position>
                   
                    <!-- MENU Module Positions -->


and add copyright position:

Code: Select all

                    <!-- Template specific Module Positions -->
                    <position>breadcrumb</position>
                    <position>login</position>
                    <position>footer_nav</position>
                    <position>sidebar</position>
                    <position>mainbody</position>
                    <position>lang</position>
                    <position>menu_top</position>
                    <position>menu_bottom</position>
                    <position>social</position>
                    <position>search</position>
                    <position>top</position>
                    <position>bottom</position>
                    <position>copyright</position>
                   
                    <!-- MENU Module Positions -->


Thank you Cyberek,
I did what you wrote, but it didn't resolve the problem
Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Kalixo

Do you have a copyright text in the bottom of the sidebar menu? If so - you should have copyrights module already there so the only thing is to edit it.

I don't have any copyright text in the bottom of the sidebar menu.
I set up my module position to "copyright" (after your advice I can see it) , but I can't see any changes on the site.

Please send me a PM with:
1. the URL to your website
2. a login and password with admin/super-admin privileges (please create one for me)
3. link to this thread
4. when you have done all above, please write back here.

ok, sure.

Thanks!

Sorry, my mistake, module position should be copyrights (with s at the end):

Code: Select all

<!-- Template specific Module Positions -->
                    <position>breadcrumb</position>
                    <position>login</position>
                    <position>footer_nav</position>
                    <position>sidebar</position>
                    <position>mainbody</position>
                    <position>lang</position>
                    <position>menu_top</position>
                    <position>menu_bottom</position>
                    <position>social</position>
                    <position>search</position>
                    <position>top</position>
                    <position>bottom</position>
                    <position>copyrights</position>
                   
                    <!-- MENU Module Positions -->


After that change and publishing module in that position, all should be working fine.

Dear Cyberek,
unfortunately, it didn't work either
Ï have sent you a private message with login détails,
thanks again,
Kalixo

One last thing before I'll do more investigation - is the template updated?

yes. It didn't work from the very beginig.

It is really strange. I have posted this question to our devteam so they can check what else might be causing this weird issue (this solution simply should work).

Thank you!

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO WHOLE TEAM!!!!!!

Best regards,
Kalixo

Hi,

It should works properly now. There's was a mistake in the module name (layouts/default.php file).
We'll fix it with the next template update. Thanks for your feedback.

yes, it works propperly now
thank you so much,
best regards,
Kalixo
