[solved] integrating custom CSS menu into CMS without using different templates

[brenski]

Hello all,

I'm just starting to learn about cmsms and have hit my first hurdle. I did search the board for similar problems but didn't find any or missed them so hopefully someone might be able to help.

I'm using CMSMS v1.2.4 and trying to convert this site. The main problem I am having is with the individual nature of the menu items - the colours basically.
I've had some help to get the menu working (see here) but the items within are all from the same template. Each link needs to be styled differently (colour only) and so far the only class I can affect is "currentpage". As you can probably tell, I'm not a developer so when I tried to modify the menu it broke... 

So, short of making a template for each page, I'd love to know if there was a way of customising the css menu templates to acheive this! I need to be able to target each menu item individually but can't work out how and would be very grateful to anyone who can help or point me in the right direction to get this working.

Thanks for reading,
Bren

This has been discussed few times and for example here is more info.

It will give individual id for each menu then CSS rest.

Ahh! Thanks KO. I'll take a look.

Hello again...

OK, I've had a look through more posts concerning nodes and I *think* I know what to do. This post certainly made the whole thing a lot clearer:
