Is there a way to make the main menu and the top menu show different items? I have many items in my main menu and since these items are the same that appear in the top menu, the top menu has to split into two rows.

That would be very useful to know. Anyone has the answer?

What menu type do you want to use?

I’m using the Split Menu type. My question is if it is possible to chose another menu than the main menu (let’s say the topmenu) to use on the top.

Thank you in advanced for your time, your answer is much appreciated

To Strats: to change menutype for splitmenu, please open template index.php file, search this code:


$topnav = ja_topNav('mainmenu', array('default'));
$subnav = ja_subNav('mainmenu');


In above code, you could replace ‘mainmenu’ to whatever menu you want.

For other menus, open the appropriate file (ja_cssmenu.php, ja_scriptdlmenu.php, ja_transmenu.php), and edit following line:


$japarams->set( 'menutype', 'mainmenu' ); // Source of menu

Thanks for the answer Khanh. I dont know if what I did was right but I installed a new menu module and published it at the top position. So far it has been working fine as I wanted to have. I will try you suggestion also and see.
