thanks in advance

You can add a module in a search position and override the style by using css override.

Or See below

Find File: templates/gk_corporate2/layouts/blocks/nav.php
Find Lines: 50 to 53 which is below.

Code: Select all

    <?php if($this->getToolsOverride()) : ?>
        <a href="#" id="gkButtonTools"><?php echo JText::_('GK_CORPORATE2_TOOLS') ?></a>
       <?php $this->loadBlock('tools/tools'); ?>
    <?php endif; ?>


Replace with below.

Code: Select all

    <?php if($this->getToolsOverride()) : ?>
        <a href="#" id="gkButtonTools"><?php echo JText::_('GK_CORPORATE2_TOOLS') ?></a>
       <?php $this->loadBlock('tools/tools'); ?>
    <?php endif; ?>
   <div id="gkMenutop">
         <jdoc:include type="modules" name="menutop" style="<?php echo $this->module_styles['xhtml']; ?>" />
   </div>
   <?php endif; ?>


Add below css in to templates/gk_corporate2/css/override.css and enable css override from template settings > advanced settings > css override "on".
You might need to adjust it by using padding or width etc.

Code: Select all

#gkMenutop { float:right;}


Create a new custom_html module and enter your text. In module position enter "menutop" without qoutes, enable it and set its menu assignments to show on all pages for test purposes.

See you around...

Hi Thanks for your reply but the directory does not have the file nab.php

it maybe an older version of the site that my client is using ?

its version 2

Hi have just checked the latest ver download of this template for joomla 1.5 and the file nab.php is not there either

Below was for joomla 2.5 version, I ll post a solution for joomla 1.5 as well sometime today. See you around...

many thanks look forward to it

Joomla 1.5 version

Find file: /templates/gk_corporate2/layouts/blocks/toolbar.php
Find below code at top:

Code: Select all

// getting User ID
$userID = $user->get('id');
?>


Replace with below

Code: Select all

// getting User ID
$userID = $user->get('id');
?>

<?php if($this->countModules('menu_top')) : ?>
<div id="gkTopWrap">
<div class="gkMenutop">            
   <jdoc:include type="modules" name="menu_top" style="raw" />      
</div>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>


Find file: /templates/gk_corporate2/css/override.css
Add below css code if you are using toolbar/login/register/search modules.

Code: Select all

#gkTopWrap {height: 10px;margin-top: 10px;position: relative;}
.gkMenutop { float:right;}


Add below If you are not using toolbar/login/register/search modules.

Code: Select all

#gkTopWrap { position:absolute; float:right;top:20px; width:100%;}
.gkMenutop { float:right;}
h1.logo { position: absolute; top:64px;}


Enable css override from template settings > dev mode > css override

Add a new module and publish it in position "menu_top".

You might need to make adjustments to height / padding depending on your logo size.

See you around...

Thx all worked a treat perfect

In the code change for J2.5, is there an extra line of
<?php endif; ?>
MR

That is a standard php code regardless of joomla version.

See you around...
