Spirit Sailing - First CMSMS Site

Post by worthyashes »

Hi all,

Here's my first CMSMS site that I've created.  I've really found it very easy to implement and deploy apart from a hiccup going from dev to live where the hosting couldn't handle the large SQL import so I had to do it by hand.

Modules used -

Album 0.9.3
Captcha 0.3.2
Form Bulder 0.5.10
Sitemap Made Simple 1.1.3.

This is just the beginning with this site, we aim to add more galleries, comments, a newsletter and video.

Really looking forward to your thoughts!

Tim

How did you do the menu on the left-hand side of the page?

Hi - I replied to your message, but I'll do it here too.

Basically I've a number of templates depending on where you are in the site.  On the home page I set it to be collapsed, on the pages a bit deeper in the site I set the menu to be open.

The rest of it is a simple CSS rollover setting the background image on hover.  To make sure that the selected menu item is the correct colour I created a menu template to do that.

Hope that helps

worthyashes,
I love the site have you uploaded it to the template site to allow others to share.  That is how SMS MS expands and is so populare with developers and new members.  We all share and take ideas and make our own thing of them..  http://themes.cmsmadesimple.org
