    Wait, now I'm confused. When I use this, I only have to have it enabled for the header to auto-show up in the header, as per my instructions. I have ezpages in my header and NONE of them are set to on for the sidebox. In the Layout Boxes Controller, do you have the left/right status for ezpages_drop_menu.php OFF and ONLY the single column status ON?

    ETA: AHA! I just checked, and I did have sort orders for the sideboxes, even though I had them OFF. Will have to check some of my php and see if I can fix that.

    Default Re: CSS Dropdown menu for your header- With Categories!

    Hi

    I'm using your 'simple zen' template on 1.3.6 at the moment and saw this contribution and thought it looks great. I've tested it but all my top level categories show in the menu bar, not just a heading called categories.

    Am I doing something daft, or is there an admin setting?

    I attach an image to show you.

    Thanks

    Craig

    You have to be sure to paste the
    <?php require(DIR_WS_MODULES . 'sideboxes/' . $template_dir . '/' . 'ezpages_drop_menu.php'); ?>

    In the right spot. My guess is you pasted it outside of the information menu. Its got to go before the closing </ul> of the information menu.

    Not sure if we are at cross purposes here, I don't have a problem with ezpages, just the categories menu.

    When I hover over the categories menu, nothing shows as all the categories are listed in the bar.

    Thanks for your help.

    OK, this is really frustrating, but CES, the issue you are having is because someone with the username toolatesmart went in and re-uploaded this module with files that DON'T WORK CORRECTLY!

    I spent so much time getting the bugs out, and now he (or she) has uploaded a new version saying it's more "USER FRIENDLY" but it has not been tested sufficiently with different category/subcategory scenarios.

    So anyone that has downloaded this from the 15th of March on, you may or may not have issues depending on how your subcategories/categories are structured.

    I'll be uploading a new version TONIGHT.

    Ok, I've updated this add on. I've added the ability for ezpages to be dynamically added to the drop menu (this can be turned on or off in the admin), and have added some text for the .htaccess file to improve compatibility with IE versions prior to IE7.

    I really like this mod it's great!

    I am having a problem with the menu appearing behind the product images though, and I'm not sure what I can do to fix this.

    I'm using Image Handler 2 and I'm not sure if that's creating the issue. I installed that 2/3 weeks before I installed the dropdown menu a little over a week ago.

    Please note the picture I have attached. This site is only on my computer, and not accessable online to view yet, so sorry no url.
