[Template] Andreas01 package

Uses a modified version of DropMenu which is included in the package. Read the INSTALL.txt file for installation instructions.

I really love this template. But I got problems with the menu. Could you give me a hand with getting this menu working ?? I loaded all the chunks and snipets. Still stuck.

sorry for the bumb of such a old topic, but think possible other ppl with the same release (.9.1) might run into same issues. Or I am just kinda poor loader of this theme. (always possible)

Is this on a local machine, or can we have a link to see what you’ve got so far?

please look here: http://stage.server02.com/modx/index.php?id=40

I have 2 different templates going, don’t want to confuse ppl. You’ll see instantly the problem with the menu.

Take a look in your document tree; do you have a document there with no title and no menutitle? I’ve had this same problem when I was using the default installation, and the last page in the default installation is the login/logout page, but I didn’t have the correct snippets installed, so the document’s title and menutitle were blank. That’s where the empty <li> element at the end of the menu came from, at least in my case.

I am not sure what you mean, I check my doc tree and see 2 times the *LoginName* in place. The snippet is in place (and seems to work fine).

If you don’t mind, I can give you login details so you can take a peek under the hood.

Sure. PM me with the details.

Was just looking at the default install I keep around for reference, and I’ll bet I know what’s causing that. In Template Variables, there is a TV named "LoginName". Check that and make sure that at the bottom your new template is checked to get permissions to that TV.

Like to share the PM, and to get the result I was after:

Ah, I think I see what you mean...you want the submenus hidden until you are on that page, then you want the submenu for that page to show in a way that lets you know where you are. Try this in your css file:

#sideMenu li ul{
display:none;
}
#sideMenu li.here ul{
display:block;
}
#sideMenu li.here ul a{
color:#3f729f;

Adjust colors, backgrounds, etc to your liking.

Hope it all helps.. Thanks sooo much!!

It is a really nice template! Good job.
But I’ve got to tell you that it still doesn’t render the menu correctly in Opera (my favorite). But this should only bother you if you care about our minority
