Pure CSS Mega Menu

[picaflor-azul]

I love that you made this a standalone...I have it in my store now but I wanted to ask...

When the submenu is open for a category (or subsequent sub menus) the user can not slide down from one link to the next without the menu closing up.

I have set the categories sort order to be the last in the list but, this work around is good for only the first sub -- see image please or go to http://fantasiesrealm.com

to Poser and Daz/textures/outfit colors, when you hover over the first link it is fine but hover over the second one and you go to the next category UNLESS/sometimes you go to the near end of the block then you can choose a lower category

is there somewhere to get the listing to behave?
is there a way to add an arrow icon to those categories with subs?

Thanks in advance

This is not the default behavior of the menu. I would back track to check any changes you made in the stylesheet_mega_menu.css file especially any widths, padding, margins, or position changes.

You can add your arrows in the stylesheet_mega_menu.css file.

Thanks,

Anne

having a couple issues, one i lost my search box in the install. two well this http://raptorengines.com/index.php?main_page=index doesnt seem to be replacing the main menu, just hopped on top. this is a template monster so yea i know theres issues. just wondering if ya have any ideas as to how i can make this work. i put in top-categories display none and that sort of worked, but your drop downs disappear as soon as you move the mouse down. i guess even if it's not displayed the main menu is still there disrupting the function of the new menu?

You will need to either remove or hide the existing menu if you don't want both to show.

A good idea would be to add the menu onto a development version of your cart first, get it the way you like, and then move it to your live cart ;-)

I went in and adjusted numbers again and seem to have gotten it to be somewhat compliant with me...lol I have no clue how to add the little side arrow to the menu links at all...probably very simple yet the brain is not working simple today either...but this is what I did and if customer goes to about the middle section of the subs link then they can go from link to link in each sub cat.

Again thanks for this addon and the very easy to manage templates you create...I have gotten several of my "clients" to leave their monster templates and add yours instead.

I am happy that you have fixed the problem ;-) If you do a quick google search for something like css list style image you will get tutorials on how to add images as bullets to list items.

Thanks,

I have the megamenu running nicely as part of one of your templates.

What I would like to do is keep the shop drop down menu as is

take one specific category (its a top level category) and place it on the menu bar by itself and have its child categories drop down from it as well, is this possble?

I have cloned the categories_ul_generator.php file, and tried editing the sql query but i just seem to break it.

any ideas or pointers, I realise this is probably out of the scope of this thread, but I thought I'd ask

OK, ignore my post, as soon as i posted and went back i saw my error, i was editing the wrong file

All i had to do was change this function in my cloned categories_ul_generator.php which I had called categories_ul_generator_bb.php, by adding the line in red to limit it to only my selected category and its kids

function buildTree($submenu=false)
{[color=red]$root_category_id = 113;[color/]
return $this->buildBranch($this->root_category_id, '', $submenu);
}

Has anyone managed to get a sidebox into this CSS mega-menu?

I've been trying to add the advanced search box into a dropdown and if I can get that done, I'd also like to have the shopping cart sidebox in another dropdown.

Has anyone got any ideas?

Excellent script by the way, and highly recommended if you haven't tried it.

I am having an odd problem with the Shop dropdown portion. There seems to be another menu opening up over the top of the main menu. It has what looks like 2 buttons, "Lock" and "Misc". Any body know how I can get rid of or otherwise turn them off? I don't know a ton about this stuff, more like a layman and had made changes to the header to get it to look like I wanted. Not sure if this is an easy fix or it has to do with something I did to the header. Thanx for any help in advance.
