It doesn't display all of the buttons and actually stops the rest of the site from loading. This is on my development copy on my WAMP 2.0i setup.

Has anyone been able to get this to work with 1.3.9c?

I even tried another route of creating a copy of the apple zen template(which uses this menu). I can use the original version of the template fine. When I try to use my copied version, that's when things get screwy. I haven't even change anything. Just copied the apple zen folder in includes>templates. The copy does continue to load though unlike the previous example.


Hi all, I am a newb by all means but I do have a few tips with this mod and maybe someone can help me too here.
1.) Make sure you follow the template system so when you upgrade you do not overwrite files that make this work. I do not know the exact link but look at the faq/tutorial and set up your template properly so upgrading is easier.
2.) If you wish to limit your categories you must edit the categories_ul_generator
var $root_category_id = 1,
$max_level = 1 Max level 1 means only top level will show
2 will go top + one ect ....... Again I am a newb so I no almost zero about what it means.......
3.) You can edit this even more and change your tpl_drop_menu and get your top level cats to tile across, if anyone needs to know how I can post, I just hate typing ....lol Also you have to edit your Extra definitions file located includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/your_template/headermenu.php this is where the name shows up so edit this if you would like categories to say products ect ect....


I think these explanations should help those who have recently posted of problems with strange titles and the drop downs not working.

Now for the help I need
I need to make it so 7 or so menus fit across the bar. I think this is done in the style sheet but I really do not know where, I will continue to fiddle with it and I will post when I figure it out, but if someone can let me know I would appreciate it. Also I do not know where the author has gone but I have not seen her post in sometime, I hope all is well.........(maybe they just got sick of supporting this)
