Milonic Menus in CMSMS - Anyone got it working

Post by ksaravaakumar »

Hi,

I'm planning to integrate Milonic Menus found at this website

http://www.milonic.com/

into CMSMS. If anyone got this working in CMS with an existing php function, let me know how to do it. I would be glad to share the code with others when I get this working.

I found a working version of Milonic Menus for Etomite CMS. They have a snippet, which I believe should be an equivalent of module/custom tag.

I'm not that familiar with PHP, but I'm trying to modify the code and get it working for CMSMS. I think this would be a very good addition to CMSMS users.

Hello,

I belive that you don't have to use those milonic menu, because you already have menus which are doing the same thing in cmsms. You don't need php knowledge, just change some values in cmsms menu CSS (Layout => Stylesheet => menu CSS) and that's it.

If you need more help with css, tell us!

Do you have a working example of a horizontal Menu where I can just modify the CSS ??

Default install has CSS menu...

http://mit-computers.com/index.php/defa ... horizontal

And next page is vertical menu...

The one you mention was real slow to me and I believe you have to add the menu items into a JS file, I've used that type before and it's one of the reasons I looked for a CMS to handle auto menu creation, the reason I chose CMSMS was it's ease of styling/templating, more like how I did flat file sites with Content removed from Style...

Hi Mark,

Could you post the tpl code of the menu in this page.

http://mit-computers.com/index.php/defa ... u_vertical

That is the kind of menu I'm looking for.

Don't you have the default install pages?...

If so you should have it, it's the CSSMenu left + 1 column template, it's this part of the menu...

      {* Start Navigation *}
     
        Navigation
        {menu template='cssmenu.tpl'}
     
     
      {* End Navigation *}

It uses this CSS...

Navigation: CSSMenu - Vertical

And you will need the Cross browser CSS to keep the from showing up...
