I’m putting together a site for two different audiences: Job Seekers and Employers. Depending on where you are in the site, I need the main top menu to change. I set up two menus, as well as a toggle button where the search used to be at the top right.

The menu you see on the main page works fine. When you click the toggle button to go to the Employers section of the web site, the second menu appears. The problem is that none of the menu items work in that menu.

I believe I have the menu modules assigned correctly since they appear the way I want. I have also assigned the templates JA Brisk – Home and JA Brisk – Default to each side of the web site.

What am I missing?

I managed to get the two menus working, but they no longer go back and forth. If I use two different templates, they stop working when I assign them to the menu items I want to use. Same with the menu modules assignments.

Is there a better way to do this? I’m not finding anything in the forums about using two main menus.

Hi,

I think you only assign each menu with each page and don’t assign both menus on the page. But you can make the custom work as my suggestion below

• Create new position from templates/ja_beranis/tpls/blocks/header.php file and follow the way how to create new position for reference here

• Create new menu module from Module Manager and assign it to the new position.

Now, you can work both menus on your site

Regards

I don’t want both menus to be on same page at the same time. I want them to alternate depending on where you are in the site.

I want them to alternate depending on where you are in the site.

If you want this maybe you can create each template style and each menu are different and assign them to each page

For example:

• Create template style A

• Menu A

• Assign it with page A

and apply the same that with page B and C.. etc

That’s what I tried first. The menus would switch exactly the way I wanted when I set it up that way, but none of the links would work.

I ended just not using mega-menu. It works fine with the regular Joomla menu.

Thank you for looking into it!
