Hi - I wonder if it would be easy to modify the code in this (brilliant!) module to handle a custom, vertical menu? I.e. a menu listing multiple levels of external/internal links, instead of categories and products?

(I do need both, a Flyout menu listing Categories - working fine - as well as the custom menu) I started by renaming and modifying the following files to use them to display my custom menu, however, I have been playing with this for hours now and cannot get the categories_ul_generaotr.php file to find and loop around menulists other than the categories!

./includes/templates/MYTEMPLATE/sideboxes/tpl_categories_css.php
./includes/modules/sideboxes/MYTEMPLATE/categories_css.php
./includes/classes/categories_ul_generator.php

Might you have any tips to for someone who's php is not yet very proficient yet!

Many thanks!

It would be a lot easier for you to just get the blank sidebox from the downloads section, and add your own menu code in it.

Hi
I'm upgrading to the lastest version of Zencart - has anyone got the CSS Flyout Menus working on 1.3.9 successfully?

Thanks in advance

I have css_flyout_menu-v1.3.8a working just fine on a 1.3.9d test site on my local system and in a 1.3.9d test folder on my hosts server. As usual be sure to back up first and do your own testing for compatibility with your site and mods.

Excellent! As you advise, I will of course backup, backup and backup again

Dunno... I just applied it to a new 1.3.9d test site. I must be missing something. Am I supposed to see something in the Admin panel for configuring this?

have you enabled it in the admin 'Layout Boxes Controller'?

After tinkering for hours i discovered how to have a fully expanded category tree on the drop down. All css, no category generator(s).

Now you can hover over the level 1, the drop down......err, drops down and you now have a category menu with all of the categories, sub categories and their sub categories expanded.

I'll provide a link to a test site of mine with this working for anyone interested, please remember i have'nt started to style this yet but i will update when i have.
