CMS Made Simple Forums

Has anyone ever converted a droplist menu for use in CMSMS? I need or at least hope to convert a droplist css menu for use in an upcoming project. Because of the droplist layout I'm not sure where to begin. I can open one of the included menu templates and begin hours of trial and error or hope that someone else has already attempted something like this and can share the basics. I'm just not catching on to where or how the different menu level items show up in the code and CSS.

If there is a tutorial somewhere showing how to convert a regular dropdown css menu for use by the Menu Manager, please send me the link. The video tutorial for converting CSS themes was great help and I've been able to now help some other members convert their templates/themes to CMSMS.

Here is a link to the type of menu layout that I would like to use http://www.cssplay.co.uk/menus/ipad-droplist-delay.html

Unfortunately, is seems this type of menu must have never been used on any CMS Simple website by anyone. The droplist menu is appearing on more and more websites. Has anyone ever done this? I've looked at EVERY showoff website posted for the last year and not one used this type of menu. If anyone knows that this can't be done, please say so.

Thanks,

I see no reason why this can't be done in CMSMS...

Hey Dr. CSS,

I thought if anyone might know you would. Where would I start?

There isn't much information available helping to figure out the conversion process of a multilevel CSS menu to CMSMS. I've used the standard cssmenu.tpl on several occasions and modified it to match the drop down I needed. I find myself getting hung up on the CSS styles and menu items as more levels are added.

Are there any tutorials I've missed? I don't mind investing the time to learn. I just need a place to start!
