[Template] Andreas 03 (ported from AndreasVicklund)

I actually have the weekend off, so I will upgrade to 0.9.0 and make the appropriate revisions. I want to keep this easy to use, but at the same time, keep it current with the cutting edge tech of MODx’s latest revisions. You are absolutely correct in your statements re: MenuBuilder. Sue... I am looking at you when I ask this question; What preferences do the MODx-ers have on menu snippets and why?

thanks

List menu’s because they are more standards compliant and degrade well for older browsers and screen readers.

So, dropmenu and listmenux are the two best.

Yeah, I’ve gotten quite addicted to DropMenu and FlexSearchForm. Nice work on those snippets!

With DropMenu, I can emulate virtually any CSS based menu system in existence, including a monster I built by hand for http://landplan.net/

It’s super flexible and I hope to create a few pages for the documentation section showing examples.

@Ryan:

Wow! The dropdown menu you did for landplan.net is amazing.  I am anxious to look at DropMenu to see what I can do with it.  It is 2:30, and I am still at the hospital.  I have a few more patients to see, and I feel that MODx is SO STRONGLY on my mind that I might forget to listen to them!

I am trying to edit NewsListing to work with this template, getting rid of the fieldset, and figuring how to h2 the title of the article so the css will put that bar across the top of each story. I must have taken out the return to top link. I will revise tonight after work.

Have you seen the new version of NewsListing with chunk template support?

BTW: Those headings are h3 on on the developers site who links to this thread in his post here: http://andreasviklund.com/blog/webdesign/more-about-cms-themes/

You shouldn’t get rid of the fieldset; it’s necessary for it to validate. Plus it gives you an excellent anchor for stylng the form’s elements.

Put this in your css:



Voila! Invisible fieldset.

No, I have had some Free Lance design projects I needed to finish, but I have a copy of Andreas 03 using DropMenu, and it has the Horizontal bars for the NewsListing titles as well as a back to top link at the end of each summary. I based another theme off Andreas 03.
