CMS Made Simple Forums

I have been hired to make modifications to my clients website. There is a menu in the footer area made up of <ul><li> tags. I have not been able to find the actual html code so I can modify it.

I have determined that it is not in any of the Global Content Blocks... it appears to be in a file named: "minimal_menu.tpl". I have found a reference to it under the Menu Manager but it is set as Read Only and I haven't been able to get it to open to even see if it is for what I am looking?

Can anyone help me make my way around this situation?

Thanks a lot.

I keep a default install so you can read about how CMSMS works...

What you need to do next depends what modifications you have been asked to make. Add a new page? Change the CSS layout? Change the HTML of the footer in some way? Expand on that and you should get some more help.

I have figured out, since my post, how the CSS works. Correct me if I am wrong, my understanding is that different CSS files are created and then they are "attached" to the particular templates that you choose. But what actually happens is that all of those files which are attached are combined into a single file and that one is attached. Right?

Part of what I need to change is CSS so from that understanding I can find where to add my CSS changes.

The HTML changes seem pretty straight forward. They would either be in the Template, Content Pages or a Global Content Blocks. I can back up from the Template to each level until I find the HTML I need to change.

Is that a pretty accurate overview?
