CMS Made Simple Forums

You can nest ID tags.

Rather than dumb down the project for the sake of novices I would prefer to provide a simple tutorial. It's not up to us to teach people CSS.

Just my 2 scrotes.

when will be seeing the first instalment of the CSSMenu in CMSMS? 0.11 Beta1?

Yeah, probably.  I still need to figure out this issue with naming and id's and all that.  Not quite sure how to do it...

Hey!
Is there any website about CSSMenu? Any tutorials about altering the look of it, any to-do's or screenshots? I'm a newbie myself and I had to do loads of reading before I got to know some functions of it - maybe it's a good idea to make it easier for future generations (of newbies)?

Have you seen this post on the first page of this topic? This tells you which version can be downloaded and where you can find an example link where the CSSMenu can be found in production.

Furthermore you can ask question about implementation in this topic.

Keep in mind that a modified version is in the svn versions of CMSMS now and will be the default menu in 0.10.1.

wishy, why is this replacing bulletmenu as the default? I'll admit it's a damn site better than PHPLayers but what does it offer that bulletmenu doesn't?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking it, I'm just trying to understand.

Will you keep updating bulletmenu when required? I personall love the way the bulletmenu works abd I think it's a very solid solution.

If CSSMenu is just bulletmenu with an admin screen and the option of flyouts or dropdowns then I'm happy. If it's not, could this be added easily enough so that current users of bulletmenu could keep the existing functionality? That way people might also have the option of dispensing of the javascript.

It's replacing phplayers as the default.  Bulletmenu is nice, but it requires some advanced styling to make it look like something.  cssmenu is just bulletmenu with some nice css...

Bulletmenu will still be updated as needed.  However, phplayers will probably take a long walk off of a short pier after the next release.

Oh, right. That's the best news I've heard since the collapse of Mambo.

I'm happy to provide hack-free CSS that will validate for the purpose of styling horizontal and vertical menus. I've already done it for bulletmenu.

Does this mean I can disable the javascript, paste in my own CSS and have the same bulletmenu I have now? Cool-io.

Well, they aren't QUITE the same.  CSSMenu takes out all of the logic for hiding/showing children and sibling nodes.  It's a little easier to read, for sure.  The output is a little cleaner and more xhtml compliant too.  I need to port that code back...

Ah, I see. Yes. If you wouldn't mind.

...takes out all of the logic for hiding/showing children and sibling nodes

That's the part I quite like.

wishy I notice the CSS seems mixed up in the admin CSSMenu Interface. Tabs reversed - and horizontal and vertical CSS are both in the one listing.

Wow, you're right.  Sometimes I miss the most obvioius stuff.  Thanks.

Hi,

thanks for the CSS-menu-module! My only problem is after installing, I get:

Warning: vsprintf() [function.vsprintf]: Too few arguments in /home/.../lib/classes/class.module.inc.php on line 1529

Remarkable: After uninstalling the module and reloading the module-page it still says the same thing. Anyone got an idea?

Thanx a bunch!

Only one problem.....

CSSMenu is properly ignoring the one item that's set to not be shown in the menu, but not it's children........

check the $disabled  array in the class, it's not used for antyhing.
