Hi

You can change the main menu position using the LAYOUT panel in your template manager

For example: Now you have your default layout in this way

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layout name="desktop">
<!--Extra css load for this layout-->
<stylesheets>
<file>css/template.css</file>
<file media="only screen and (max-width:719px)">css/layout-mobile.css</file>
<file media="only screen and (max-width:479px)">css/layout-mobile-port.css</file>
<file media="only screen and (min-width:720px) and (max-width: 985px)">css/layout-tablet.css</file>
</stylesheets>
<blocks name="top" style="xhtml">
<block name="absolute" type="modules" style="raw">absolute</block>
<block name="top-panel" type="modules" style="raw" main-inner="1">top-panel</block>
<block name="header" type="header" main-inner="1"></block>
<block name="mainnav" type="mainnav" main-inner="1"></block>
<block name="cpanel" type="usertools/cpanel"></block>
<block name="masshead" style="raw" no-main="1">masshead</block>
<block name="slideshow" style="raw">slideshow</block>
<block name="topsl" type="spotlight">user1, user2, user3, user4</block>
<block name="topsl1" type="spotlight">user5, user6, user7, user8</block>
<block name="topsl2" type="spotlight">user9, user10, user11, user12</block>
</blocks>
<blocks name="middle" colwidth="25">
<block name="content-mass-top">content-mass-top</block>
<block name="right1">position-7</block>
<block name="right2">position-5</block>
</blocks>
<blocks name="bottom" style="xhtml">
<block name="botsl" type="spotlight">user13, user14, user15, user16</block>
<block name="botsl1" type="spotlight">user17, user18, user19, user20</block>
<block name="botsl2" type="spotlight">user21, user22, user23, user24</block>
<block name="navhelper" type="navhelper"></block>
<block name="footer" type="footer"></block>
</blocks>
</layout>

You can move your main menu for example below the slideshow then copy the string

<block name="mainnav" type="mainnav" main-inner="1"></block>
below the slideshow string
so your new default layout will be

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layout name="desktop">
<!--Extra css load for this layout-->
<stylesheets>
<file>css/template.css</file>
<file media="only screen and (max-width:719px)">css/layout-mobile.css</file>
<file media="only screen and (max-width:479px)">css/layout-mobile-port.css</file>
<file media="only screen and (min-width:720px) and (max-width: 985px)">css/layout-tablet.css</file>
</stylesheets>
<blocks name="top" style="xhtml">
<block name="absolute" type="modules" style="raw">absolute</block>
<block name="top-panel" type="modules" style="raw" main-inner="1">top-panel</block>
<block name="header" type="header" main-inner="1"></block>
<block name="cpanel" type="usertools/cpanel"></block>
<block name="masshead" style="raw" no-main="1">masshead</block>
<block name="slideshow" style="raw">slideshow</block>
<block name="mainnav" type="mainnav" main-inner="1"></block> <-----
<block name="topsl" type="spotlight">user1, user2, user3, user4</block>
<block name="topsl1" type="spotlight">user5, user6, user7, user8</block>
<block name="topsl2" type="spotlight">user9, user10, user11, user12</block>
</blocks>
<blocks name="middle" colwidth="25">
<block name="content-mass-top">content-mass-top</block>
<block name="right1">position-7</block>
<block name="right2">position-5</block>
</blocks>
<blocks name="bottom" style="xhtml">
<block name="botsl" type="spotlight">user13, user14, user15, user16</block>
<block name="botsl1" type="spotlight">user17, user18, user19, user20</block>
<block name="botsl2" type="spotlight">user21, user22, user23, user24</block>
<block name="navhelper" type="navhelper"></block>
<block name="footer" type="footer"></block>
</blocks>
</layout>

Hope that helps

Regards

Hello maceituno,

T3 Mega menu is only displayed horizontally on top. If you would like to show it in vertical layout, you should use Joomla menu.
