        Hello,

        Did you manage to fix this one? I am having the same problem and can’t figure out why. It’s definately getting the style sheet as the menu looks right, it just doesn’t do the popping out!


        <div class="menu">
        [!Wayfinder? &startId=`0` &level=`4` &parentRowTpl=`wfParentRow`!]
        </div>

        Thanks for your time.
        Sian

          Hope all is well with yours too.

          Sian

              Revisiting this thread...

              This may be a long shot for those people for whom things are not working.. but I struggled for ages with this until I discovered (by chance) that if you have so many links in your top-level menu then they get "wrapped around" in the browser

              Link 1 : Link 2 : Link 3: Link 4
              Link 5 : Link 6

              and this prevents the drop-downs (from say Link 2) from appearing, as they are "blocked" by Link 6.

              I do have one question though.. when is the "drop.gif" meant to appear.. it is referred to in the CSS file as "url(drop.gif)" but I have no idea where the pathnames are relative to at this stage... in the Wayfinder package the file is located in "cssplay" but seeing as the instructions do not mention doing anything with the file, I can’t see how it could possibly be found there.

              I put it in the assets/templates/wayfinder folder along with the CSS files, but I could never make it appear

              Cheers

                I worked on this problem for quite a while and shared your frustration in making this work. Here’s what did it for me:

                Be sure to set a div tag around your wayfinder call, like this:

                <div class="menu">
                [[Wayfinder? &startId=`0` &level=`3` &parentRowTpl=`cssplay_revParentRow` &cssTpl=`cssplay_ultdrop`]]
                </div>

                THAT solved my problem.

                For those of us who are "less advanced" (but pedaling fast to catch up), the documentation for Wayfinder really is not clear. This thread -- which took me a long time to find -- was the most useful one. I think someone should write up a noob explanation. Maybe i’ll do it.
