CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi all CMSMS users.

A while ago I made a simple site with a menu based on the horizontal menu supplied with cmsms.  I now want to split this site into two distinct areas (sites) where on the first page you pick which bit you want.

My main problem is the menu as I want this to be site spaciffic.  I had the idea that I could build the two sites grouped under a sub content eg. site 1 home to be 1 and site 1 menu items to be 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, etc. and sub menu items to be 1.1.1, 1.1.2, etc.

My main problem is how do I get the menu to build using 1 or 2 as the root rather than the real root?

Hope that makes sense 

Thanks
Luke

It is solution for similar problem

Hi Korpirkor,

Many thanks for your response, that kind of worked but not quite.  Let me try and explain.

In a normal situation, items 1, 2, 3, 4 etc. all display along the top

I want to change it to make the root = 1 and so all items 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, etc. display along the top.

By using the start page parameter it can produce only one single menu eg. it puts 1 along the top and 1.1, 1.2, 1.3,1.4, etc become sub-menus of that menu.

I have re-read the help file but again no joy 

Can anyone add any more??

Thanks again
Luke

Something like this:

{menu template="cssmenu.tpl" start_element="1.1" show_root_siblings="1"}
