[Solved]Help with CMSMS menus

Post by zafiro »

Hi! First of all, I want to say that i'm very satisfied with this CMS. Its just what i was looking for!

Now, I'm building my site but i'm having problems with the menu. By default, the menu shows current page and the number of item (1.1, 1.2, 3, etc.) but i don't want those things. I want my menu clear and simple.

What should i do to take those things off? (the current page text and the number of item...)

I've been searching around the website and reading the documentation but i found nothing, that's one of the few things i found bad on this cms, the documentation is not complete. So please help me. Any reply will be aprecciated.
Thanks a lot!

Have you looked in the page source to see where they are coming from, then look at the default style sheets to find something that targets it...

I believe you need to attach the "Accessibility and cross browser tools" stylesheet to your template.

Thanks for your replies but i can do nothing with css only(can i?)
I expected a param for the {menu} command or something.
i just want to remove "current page is" and "2:1; 3:; 4:2 etc" text.
Sorry but i'm still a little newbie at html & css

You could try also using different menu template. minimal_menu.tpl works usually nicely out of the box.

{menu template="minimal_menu.tpl"}

thanks for all the help! I found some pages in the documentation that helped me:

http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php ... nu_Manager
http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php ... Parameters

But now i'm strugling because i don't completely understand the *.tpl templates for the menu manager.
Now i understand that i have to modify the templates to suit my needs. If you can recommend any templates that would help.
Thanks  a lot!

Good, it was the in the menu template and they are there for accessibility, and the style sheet he was referencing has a call for them that will make them move off the page but screen readers can still use them...
