Hi,

I have 2 mega menu setups. I’d like to show relevent menu if user is logged in and default menu if user is not logged in

if (logged in) { show logged in menu }
else { show default public menu }

I’ve opened up mainnav.php however the menu is loaded via direct php. Can anybody point me in right direction please.

I can do a check to see if user is logged in or not, but how do I then load relevent menu id.

Thanks

It can be done by overriding mainnav block. Copy the base theme block mainnav (plugins/system/jat3/base-themes/default/blocks/mainnav.php) to folder templates/ja_t3_blank/blocks, then open for edit. Copy this block of code to very top of the file:
[php]
<?php
$user = & JFactory::getUser();
if ($user->get(‘guest’)) {
//not login
T3Parameter::_setParam (‘menutype’, ‘pubic_menu’);
} else {
//login
T3Parameter::_setParam (‘menutype’, ‘logged_in_menu’);
}
?>
[/php]
