Hi Joomlart,

I have a main menu item called “News” which shows up with the other menu items in the JA Mageia horizontal menu at the top.

I’ve unpublished the Main Menu module because my design doesn’t call for a vertical Main Menu in the left column, as in the JA Mageia demo.

Problem:

Whenever I create another menu item to display in the left column on the News page, it is automatically creating a double menu with the title “News” at the top. Even if I set “Show Title” to “No” in the module, it is still displaying the Title.

And it is also displaying an old menu item that I’ve since deleted.

It seems that the title of the mysterious module is somehow related to the “News” menu item in the main menu. When I change it in the Main Menu, it changes in the menu I made manually. No connection on my part.

Here’s the source for that left column module:

<!– BEGIN: LEFT COLUMN –>
<div id=”ja-col1″>
<div class=”ja-innerpad”>
<div id=”ja-subnavcol” class=”moduletable”><h3>News</h3><div class=”sublevel”>
<ul><li class=”first-item”><a href=”/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&id=3&Itemid=4″ class=”first-item” id=”menu4″ title=”Press Releases”><span>Press Releases</span></a></li></ul>

</div></div> <div class=”moduletable”>
<ul class=”menu”><li class=”item24″><a href=”/index.php?option=com_content&view=section&layout=blog&id=3&Itemid=5″><span>My Menu 1</span></a></li><li class=”item25″><a href=”/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&id=3&Itemid=4″><span>My Menu 2</span></a></li></ul> </div>

</div>
</div><br />
<!– END: LEFT COLUMN –>

Is this some kind of special JA coding that is linking things? “Press Releases” is a non-mainmenu item that I’ve deleted.

Please advise and thanks,
Railer

Note: I’ve made other mainmenu items for other sections and then created left column menus, and they work fine. The above problem is only happening with the “News” main menu item.

Here’s a png image that shows what’s happening. I want to get rid of the “News” and “Press Release” text at the top, and just have the two menu items, “My Menu 1” and “My Menu 2”.

Thanks,
Railer

Hi

Please open templates/ja_mageia/index.php file, at about line 233, find following code section:

<?php if ($JAconfig->ja_menutype == 1 && $jamenu->hasSubMenu (1)) {
echo '<div id="ja-subnavcol" class="moduletable">';
echo '<h3>'.$jamenu->getParentText (1).'</h3>';
$jamenu->genMenu (1);
echo '</div>';
} ?>

and remove it.
