Menu Closing / Opening (COLLAPSE)

Post by pamelina »

Hello,

I'm using a Navigation: Simple Vertical in cmcMS 1.5.4. However, when I have "products" and about 10 "submenus" when I click on "products" all of them get open ... My question is how to make it that when I click back on "products" all those 10 "submenues" get close?

Looking forward to receive an answer ..

Regards

This menu does not expand and collapse in the page. It actually reloads the page with that menu item open and showing the children. To close it you would have to click on another menu item.

If you want it to expand/collapse while on that page you will need to look for a dynamic script. Something built in Javascript or JQuery would likely cover your needs.

Apart from building the template and sending it to you I cannot tell you how to install. What I can tell you is search google.com for something like "jquery menu collapse" Find a template/menu you like.

Then read the MenuManager help over and over a few times so you understand the process. Then you can try to build the Jquery menu into menu manager. This may also be of help to you (it was for me) http://themes.cmsmadesimple.org/Howto/m ... tions.html
