Horizontal menu's

Post by jamapumo »

I builded a website using Phoca's template Nature

The menu however is vertical and not horizontal

When I try to set menustyle as legacy flat list and menu class suffix to -nav I get a distorbed view.

Any idea as why it isn't working flawlessly?


TIA,


Jack

Breadcrumbs does not work propelly, do not show all the pathway from home down to active page.

Hi, sorry I don't understand, breadcrumbs displaying doesn't depend on template?

When you are building up menu structure, the easiest way to get breadcrumbs to show all the passway starting from home page down to active page , to include all sections, categories and pages in mainemain ( or likewise menu) to build up a structure like below

main menu
_____________________________________________
i i i
section 1 section 2 page 1
i i
catergory 1 categori 2
i i
page 2 page3 and etc.

if you set up menu style as legacy flat list in that case in that case start level and end level does not work , so you have to restrict menu item by start level ( unless you wish to see all daughter level in the same single row as zero level entries). If you do so breadcrumbs module will not show all the sublevel. So you will heave a break in the pathway to if you activate page 3 in the breadcrumbs it will look like home ->page 3 instead of home->section2->catergori2 ->page3. So you have to make extra modules/copy of modules and etc to get bredcrumbs to show all the pathway. That option is no good.

But still no idea how this problem is related to template as in template the menus are not solved. They are created by Joomla! framework :idea:
