Pure CSS Mega Menu

[rharrison]

Hi Anne,

I've installed your Sheffield Blue free theme which includes the mega-menu, I would like to know what must be done to change the font colours?

I managed to change the colour for the top of the menu sections, but now all the menu items are invisible..

I have it in a shade of brown, white background, with blue a:hover applied. Perhaps you could take a look please?

My store is: http://store.sol-computers.co.uk

The best long-term advice anyone will give you is to use the Fire-bug add-on for Firefox browser, you'll soon work it out and never look back.

You're right, I do have firebug installed and have attempted to use it to adjust the menu styling. Problem is the menu items require you to hover over, then inspect and by the time I look at the console the information has moved and is therefore invalid. That or I can change some style element in firebug, apply the same change in the css and get a different/unexpected result.

Hi Anne...

I installed this module and have a questions about brands. I would like to replace the brands (as I won't be using any) with reviews. Is it possible to do this? Thanks.

Looking for a little help customising Mega-menu

We’ve made a decision to have 9 new Top level categories along a horizontal navigation marked on the attached image in pink. This has been done by taking the standard megamenu dropdown labelled “shop” and copying that piece of code from the tpl megamenu file 9 times and changing the name at the top of each.

The dropdown, which is marked in blue, is what would usually be Top level cats, and the sub of that, which is marked in green, would be the level 2.

What I’m trying to do is get the green bit where the blue bit should be. I simply need to move everything up a level, and find some way to tie that in to my own pink 9 top categories.

I’ve looked at the megamenu generator and other pieces of code with no joy.

Can anyone give me any starters on how this can be achieved?

Thanks for any input.

Hello everyone,

I have installed the CSS Mega Menu and reviewed the steps of installation three times, but I cannot get it to function. I don't know what I'm missing? Below is a screen shot of my header and after it is the last bit of code from my tpl_header.php"



<!--bof-header ezpage links-->
<?php if (EZPAGES_STATUS_HEADER == '1' or (EZPAGES_STATUS_HEADER == '2' and (strstr(EXCLUDE_ADMIN_IP_FOR_MAINTENANCE, $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'])))) { ?>
<?php require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_ezpages_bar_header.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'templates'). '/tpl_ezpages_bar_header.php'); ?>
<?php } ?>
<!--eof-header ezpage links-->
</div>

<!--bof-mega menu display-->
< ?php require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_mega_menu.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'common'). '/tpl_mega_menu.php');?>
< !--eof-mega menu display-->
< div class="clearBoth"></div>

<?php } ?>

I'm using ZenCart 1.5.0 on a production server.

ANY help would be greatly appreciated, this is a really, really cool plugin!
Thanks,
Danny

OOPS!

I just found out what I did wrong..., For some reason when I copied the code to paste into the tpl_header.php..., it created a space between the < and the first character of code. example: < ? instead of <?.

DUH!
Thanks anyway,
Danny

If you post a link to your site I can take a look.

If you only want to show the top level catetgories, I would recommend using this menu as it will need much less customization:

Yes, you can edit the includes/templates/override/common/tpl_mega_menu.php file.

Thanks,
