MODx 0.9.1 rev 609 (internal testing)

Regarding Jeffs new menu:

Working great man! Nice work!

Using the default MODx theme it seems a little out of place in terms of styling (b/c it uses the older eto imgs) but that should be an easy fix (I’ll try and do it if I get a chance).

just got managed to install rev609 ! WOHA !! New QE and Susan’s new Menu...

That’s not my menu, it’s straight out of

Now if I can figure out this FF 1.5 Mac issue, then maybe I’ll be impressed with my 1337 5KI112.

I have some good news people! I just copmpleted matching the MODx look and organization to Jeff’s menu and the results are AWESOME!!!

As for QE styling, I like the new look but maybe a more silver and less gray in the toolbar might make it look cleaner?

If anyone wants to see it in action (a screenshot can’t do it justice) send me a PM.

I motion that this new menu layout be made the default!

UPDATE: I just did some more MAJOR work to the menu and it looks and works great in FF. Period. I’m having some trouble getting it to work in other browsers. But its DANG COOL!

Features:

Optimal styling for usability and asthetics
Submenu appears directly below parent
Menu items are better organized for easy of use.

Screenshot (doesn’t do it justice but whatever!)

The new QE is really cool!

I had a problem when I used the Revert function though when a page has the € sign.
And rendered it to very weird characters :-(

I upgraded an Etomite 0.6 install, went fine, though the ListMenu no longer showed the activeChildren like it did before.
Replaced it with DropMenu, couldn’t solve the issue and that worked fine of course.

Oh, in FF, the QuickEdit shows still the unsorted list "bullets" on the left, which doesn’t look pretty....

Keep up the great work!

The revert function uses a prototype.js form serializer, which is probably what is causing that, but it might also be affected by the encoding of the editor window. I’ll see if I can figure it out.

Yea, I already commited that fix to SVN, you should see it in the next release.

Mark, what happens when you get to the admin menu which is long enough to fly off the right side of the space on smaller screens?

Aye, found a more serious bug now.

If I login as a user with access permissions, I’m able to use the manager backend, but on the front-end, no QE shows up!!
Only when I login as admin, then the QE shows up...

That’s why I rearranged the menus, putting the ones with the longest submenues to the left.
