I have been searching through forums and code, and it seems to me this should be very feasible considering the seperate layouts/css/php for mobile and desktop layouts.

I would like to assign a different menu ID to mainnav for iphone/mobile, preferably through an override, but will gladly edit core T3 or Template files.

I expect it could be changed in /plugins/system/jat3/jat3/base-themes/default/blocks/iphone/mainnav.php to simply call menu ID #2 instead of the menu set up in the template.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I’ve been messing with it for quite a while without progress.

Thanks in Advance

Ron

Let me try to explain simply.

in T3 you can set what menu to use (suppose MAIN MENU), it is then used for both the Desktop Site’s menu and the iPhone site’s menu.

What I would like to do is have MAIN MENU on the desktop site, and another menu for the mobile (for example we could create a menu called MOBILE MENU).

The site is not currently live, but you can see this on any current T3 based site (I’de be most interested in Joomla! 1.7)

As I understand, you want to display another menu for handheld layout, let’s say Menu ID = 2, regardless the menu assigned in template manager, let’s say Menu ID = 1. If so, please allow me a time for digging up the code to check if it’s possible.

Thanks

The default Menu Type is often “mainmenu”, but if you want to change it to “topmenu” for handheld devices, open the mainnav.php file.

Find this code at top:

defined('_JEXEC') or die('Restricted access');

Add after:

T3Parameter::_setParam ('menutype', 'topmenu');

Then clear cache to get affected.

P/s: Go to Menu Manger look at Type column to get exact menu type value.
Thanks

🙂

Thanks, much appreciated.

This works…. adding this broke a bunch of other things, but that is related to the way Joomla! works with menus.
