[Solved] Menu Template and stylesheet question - from total newby :)

Post by susiegb »

Hi there

I'm running CMS MS 1.3.1 on a Mac in local host mode via MAMP.

I'm working on a dummy site to learn how to use this - first CMS I have used.

I'm having a problem understanding the Menu Manager (version is whatever shipped with the CMS MS version I've got). I'm going through the documentation on the wiki, and it says to use cssmenu.tpl and add styles in a separate stylesheet. Am I supposed to attach this stylesheet to the cssmenu.tpl? If so how?

If not - is there any reason it has to be in a separate stylesheet? Can't it just be in the stylesheet I've set up and attached to the page template I made?

And if I haven't given enough info, please let me know what else I need to provide.

thanks
susie

You can use (edit and add things on) the stylesheets that are allready attached to your template or create new one and attach that on page template with CSS button on "templates" menu. Or add real CSS file by editing page template to have normal link to it in section. So it can be anything as long as it's visible for browser in actuall webpage. Ofcourse take care of the order of them so one does not override other.
