#174182

Hi there,

I’m modifying the Purity II template and I’m trying to put the “mainnav” position in the header. Basically, what I want to accomplish is to put the menu in the header, on the right side of the logo. See this template:

http://themeforest.net/item/sasu-black-premium-joomla-template/full_screen_preview/1259393

According to FireBug, the “mainnav” position is inside the “header” 🙂 Please let me know how this can be done. Thanks!

You can’t do that. But I have a trick:
– You login backend > extensions > template manager > ja_purity_ii > layout tab > edit default layout > remove the code


<block name="mainnav" type="mainnav" main-inner="1"></block>

– You create a new file, its name is /templates/ja_purity_ii/blocks/header.php with content is

<?php

*/
?>
<?php
$app = & JFactory::getApplication();
$siteName = $app->getCfg('sitename');
if ($this->getParam('logoType', 'image')=='image'): ?>
<h1 class="logo">
<a href="index.php" title="<?php echo $siteName; ?>"><span><?php echo $siteName; ?></span></a>
</h1>
<?php else:
$logoText = (trim($this->getParam('logoText'))=='') ? $siteName : JText::_(trim($this->getParam('logoText')));
$sloganText = JText::_(trim($this->getParam('sloganText'))); ?>
<div class="logo-text">
<h1><a href="index.php" title="<?php echo $siteName; ?>"><span><?php echo $logoText; ?></span></a></h1>
<p class="site-slogan"><?php echo $sloganText;?></p>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

<?php if($this->countModules('search')) : ?>
<div id="ja-search">
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="search" />
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php $this->genBlockBegin ($block) ?>
<?php if (($jamenu = $this->loadMenu())) $jamenu->genMenu (); ?>
<?php $this->genBlockEnd ($block) ?>

<!-- jdoc:include type="menu" level="0" / -->
<?php if ($this->hasSubmenu() && ($jamenu = $this->loadMenu())) : ?>
<div id="ja-subnav" class="wrap">
<div class="main clearfix">
<?php $jamenu->genMenu (1); ?>
<!-- jdoc:include type="menu" level="1" / -->
</div>
</div>
<?php endif;?>

<ul class="no-display">
<li><a href="<?php echo $this->getCurrentURL();?>#ja-content" title="<?php echo JText::_("SKIP_TO_CONTENT");?>"><?php echo JText::_("SKIP_TO_CONTENT");?></a></li>
</ul>

Thanks for the response Khoand… I did exactly what you said but then the site gets messy. Please see the attached screenshots and advise. Probably it can be fixed with some CSS entries but I could find the correct one. I am waiting for your response. Thanks 🙂

It was on localhost but I just uploaded it. This is a fresh installation (quickstarter) and I just changed what you said. Here it is:

Thank you very much for helping me out with this 🙂

You replace the code from /templates/ja_purity_ii/blocks/header.php

<?php $this->genBlockBegin ($block) ?>
<?php if (($jamenu = $this->loadMenu())) $jamenu->genMenu (); ?>
<?php $this->genBlockEnd ($block) ?>

with


<?php if (($jamenu = $this->loadMenu())) $jamenu->genMenu (); ?>
