Permanent Sub-Menu

Hi there.

I have just installed CMS Made Easy, and I am wondering if it is possible to do the following:

I want to keep the main navigation across the top, and I want a permanent sub-menu (or quick links) menu down the left hand side.  I am using the EllNav Horiz/Vert L 2 col layout.

What I hae done is set up a few pages that have the parent as the Home page, but when I click on a different link, the sub menu disappears.

Is there any way that I can make the submenu stay the way it appears on the home page on every page?

I appreciate your help.

Many thanks for such a great CMS.

What you plan is no submenu, but a meta navigation or something like that. In the last stable release this is not possible. In the new 0.12 beta-1 you can do that for example by using the parameter "items", but you have to hide these menu entries for the standard menu.

Or if you don´t want to use the beta, you can
- read this thread http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.ph ... 907.0.html
- change the files of your folder "/modules/EllNav"
- use the parameter "meta"
