I am bit confused with the main menu appearance. Right now it appears on the right side as in frontpage demo of wistry in JA eventhough the main menu site module says ‘left’.

I disabled login form, who’s online, polls etc that appears on the extreme right after main menu in other content items. Say if somebody clicks a news item, polls etc disappear and main menu goes to extreme left.

I wish to keep main menu on the right for those sections. When i tried assigning ‘right’ for main menu, it goes to extreme right along with polls etc even in frontpage.

Am i missing something? Any help please?

Hi drb07,

The ‘left’ position of Wistery is exactly at the right of the content but the left of the right position. It’s just a different layout from other formal and repetitive layouts.

Regards,
Ha Le-Viet.

Sorry to drag.

EDITED:
The more I thought I became clearer now. I have to take back what I requested earlier. To me having main menu at the top main navigation bar and again at the side next to content items looks repetitive.

Instead I am planning to remove any menus for content items. This is easy to do with joomla. But I couldn’t figure how to get the ‘user menu” for profile details to appear as a link at the main navigation bar. Is it possible to do that?

please let me know.

Hi Drb07,
Can you please post the live url of your website so that I can help to config. It is quite difficult for me to figure out what you really want

Hello Hung,
If you don’t mind, please check your PM. I have sent you the URL. (actually i have sent you the URL in couple of my previous PM’s 😉 )

What I wish is can the user menu (the one that you see after loggin in like your details, submit news, submit weblink, check-in my items, logout etc) can it come in the main navigation bar? with main item as User menu and other subitems as a dropdown menu? This user menu should appear in the main navigation bar after one logs in.

Please see the image:

thank you,

drb

Did I ask something that I shouldn’t have? No JA team members have paid attention to my pleas.
Not even courtesy replies like we’ll get back to you soon or something. :confused:

1. Several repeated PM’s to different JA team members
2. several emails through contact us form from JA website
3. Several postings in this thread
NO RESPONSE……………… am I missing something? Are the clients not allowed for tech support? :rolleyes:

Will i ever get my small tech question answered?

So you want the top menu to be the user menu instead of the main menu?

I do understand that you are a little impatient at the moment drb07, but please do allow a bit of time to resolve your questions. The main focus of the JA team is to produce new templates and to make sure that the delivered templates keeps a high level and are as bug free as possible. In addition to this they also try to help out with questions like yours. However, these will not be the main priority. The rest of us also try to help out the best we can and try to provide answers when we can.

@miccas, I think drb07 wants to place the usermenu within the main menu ( or top menu ) In other words, he would like to have the “drop down” of all the user menu stuff in his top menu.

@drb07. I would assume you would/could do this by copy and add the user menu items to the main menu just as you would with any other menu? However, this would not show unless you are logged in. I am not sure if this would work though as I have not tried it before. But I don’t see any reason why it shouldn’t work, other than some sort of problem with displaying “not logged in” pages in the menu.

Let me know if this works.

Erik/MiCCAS,
Thanks for the response. Do you really think that I am impatient? 🙂
Well, people have different ways to deal with a situation, if I were JA i would have atleast sent courtesy PM/emails back. And I guess you might agree with it too. And that would be the norms in a business.

Anyway, I think the code should be added to index.php under main navigation:
<?php } ?>
<?php if (mosCountModules(‘user4’)) {?>

But I am not sure what the code should be for ‘User menu’. On the other hand, i think one may have to edit js_transmenu.php. But again, not sure what to add to include user menu.

Hi Drb07,
There are 2 points that may help to resolve your situation:
1. Transmenu and Dropdown menu can not support 2 instances
2. If you want to make a dropdown menu that only logined in users can use like:

— UserCP
— Account Info
— Download
— ….

So you should mark the access permissions for this three menu to Registered.

This menu should be part of the mainmenu.

If you need a seperate dropdown menu for the usermenu with different styles, the customed works should be involved, I remember someone has requested the same fuction at JoomLancers.com

Sorry Hung Dinh,
I didn’t quite catch you.
UserCP, account info etc are off limits for me.

So are you saying that user menu (your details, submit news, submit weblink, logout, check-in my items, public details) is a separate instance for transmenu other than then main menu items (home, news, blog, contact us etc)? So that menu cannot be called in the main navigation bar when a user logs in?

thanks and I hope I wasn’t too brashful in the forum. I really didn’t intend to.

Hello drp07,

What Hung is saying is that you add it to the main menu like any other menu element. Then you set it to be displayed ONLY for registrered members ( or whatever access you would like for the menu element to have )

It should be that simple ( I tried suggesting this earlier as well, I might have not been too clear… )

Argh!!! still I didn’t get it. sorry.

Erik is saying it is simple to add ‘user menu’ to main menu. I checked backend. There is no such option.

Hung is referring me to a developer. That means, I cannot do this on my own. I don’t mind spending money for the efforts. But if it is simple enough for me to try, I would be glad to do that as well.

any more further leads please?
