[Tip] Additional Dropdown Menu for Curve Theme 2.0 RC3

[ScopeXL]

try to echo anything where the menu should go. You could have a style that is setting display:none; possibly. Make sure its not nested between <!-- (menu code) --> HTML tags either, then it will just get ignored.

It works on the regular curve theme but not my modified curve theme (RGBB Curve).

Yea, I only designed it to work with default Curve. No curve variations have been tested. Theoretically if its a true curve variation it should work with minimal differences in the code edits.

colby this should work for your theme post the fukes you edited and we can check the code.

I've made these edits on RC4, but only to the theme I am currently using.  It is curve based, but the menu is being aligned on the left side.

Do I need to edit the default template & my current theme? 

Also does anyone have a thought about why the menu isn't aligning properly?  It was working perfectly before on RC3.

I had it working to the point at which it was directly under the dashboard carrot ^, no drop-down links were working, and the My Messages didn't show the number of new PMs.  I can figure out the last part as that has to do with subs.php, but why didn't the placement nor the drop-down links work?

Fukes?

I was able to get it working for my curve variation.  How do I remove the original menu, so that I don't have two menus?

To clarify.. I am using this mod to move my forum menu up to the very top.  I then want to remove the forum menu in addition to the news/search/user-info sections.

[colby2152]

Okay, so I have added the navigation menu to the top but one key problem... items like the number of new messages in brackets to the right of Messages do not appear.  Likewise, the logout / login-register buttons are not showing.

No feedback?

Is there any way this can be made a mod?  This would be an amazing one!

hi i have this installed on my forum and have been suing it for quite some time and i'm now having problems after changing smf's cache settings (apc)

it was on the default '1' but i changed it to '3' but now not matter if i have it set to 1,2 or 3 the menu just won't show

i've tried to clear the cache before and after but the only way i can get the menu to show now is to disable the cache

any ideas?

here's a few of the errors i get with cache set to 1,2 or 3:

error1:

Maybe somebody solved this ?

/*overflow: hidden;*/
margin-bottom: 3px;
}
#site_menu
{
padding: 12px 0 4px 1em;
margin: 0;
/*overflow: hidden;*/
font-size: 1.1em;
font-family: tahoma, sans-serif;
float: right;
}
h1.forumtitle
{
font-family: "Century Gothic", tahoma, sans-serif;
position: absolute;
}
#main_menu
{
margin-top: 1em;
}
#site_nav li a.active
{
background: url(../images/theme/menu_gfx.png) no-repeat 100% -31px;
}
#site_nav li a.active span.firstlevel
{
background: url(../images/theme/menu_gfx.png) no-repeat 0 -31px;
}
