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

    IT WORKED!!!!

    Let me explain but first I want to say that I believe this problem is exclusive to monster templates that use both bad code AND bad directory/file structure.

    This particular mod was looking to call a file - ezpages_drop_menu.php

    the mod is programmed to look for this path includes/modules/sideboxes/MY TEMPLATE

    HOWEVER the way monster templates work is that they hardly ever section their template into a proper MY TEMPLATE subcategory so naturally I would copy all mod files into just includes/modules/sideboxes

    No other mod was fussy about this except this one.
    So what I did with Ajeh's (GENIUS) help is to just invent a new MY TEMPLATE subdirectory (that no other mod uses...) and place the file there, then everything was fixed as the mod found that file.

    all other mods that tell me to put a file in include.....mytemplate/ if I sense that the my template files are not in a subcategory but in the main category like sideboxes for example i automatically place the mod files there because thats where my template would call them up from, all mods were happy with that, until now... Does this make sense? for clarification post your questions please

    AJEH AJEH AJEH Ajeh PM me your paypal dinner is on me!!!

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

    Hi - I have this awesome mod installed on my site and it's sooo cool, but I have one little problem....instead of the headers having a home page button, information, contact, my account and that sort of thing, I'd prefer for the menu to contain the names of my main categories. I can put those other links elsewhere on the site.

    Can anyone tell me how to modify it so that the main headings will display my category names rather than these other things? I know how to change the names themselves as sort of a cosmetic thing, but I need the headings to pull from the main category names, if that makes sense.

    I found it a while back on this post 1921.

    Admin, maybe we should sticky some of this stuff? or wiki it

    Thank you so much...now I just need to figure out how to remove the contact us, information, my account, etc from the headers. I want to put those down at the bottom of the page. I found one part of the answer, but when I tried to do what it recommended, it kinda screwed it up...hints? :)

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

    Hello jettrue, my navigation bar has a spacing between my header and I want to have the navigation bar right against the header. My site is http://.capebretonantiques.com/shop I put this code <!--bof-drop down menu display-->
    <?php require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_drop_menu.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'common'). '/tpl_drop_menu.php');?>
    <!--eof-drop down menu display-->
    <div class="clearBoth"></div>
    into my includes/templates/cape breton antiques/common/tpl_header.php folder. I placed this code at the bottom of the page under all other codes in my tpl_header.php. So if you could let me know how to move it up to my header that would be appreciated. Also I was wondering how to change categories to something like about us how would I go about doing that. I have created an EZ page about us page, but I don't want it under my information link. Also I wanted to thank you for this wonderful add on. Thank you Godfather Antiques
