Icon Navbar with Multi Level Menus
 
1 Attachment(s)
This is a follow up of my Icon Navbar with dropdown menus, quite a few people where asking for multi level menus, so after lots of reading and some help from RobbieZ, here it is.


First off download the zip file, extract and upload the contents to your forum root (The place on your FTP where your forum files live).

Now in your Admin CP, go to Styles & Templates-->Style Manager, click the dropdown menu for the style you'd like to add this to and select Edit Templates.

Now look for CSS Templates-->additional.css at the very bottom of your additionl.css template, add the following.

HTML Code:

.flexdropdownmenu, .flexdropdownmenu ul{ /*topmost and sub ULs, respectively*/
font: normal 11px Arial;
margin: 0;
padding: 6;
position: absolute;
left: 0;
top: 0;
list-style-type: none;
background: white;
border: 2px solid #C4C4C4;
border-bottom-width: 1px;
visibility: hidden;
display: none; /*collapse all sub menus to begin with*/
}


.flexdropdownmenu li{
position: relative;
}

.flexdropdownmenu li a{
display: block;
width: 160px;
height: 09px;
color: {vb:stylevar popupmenu_color};
background: {vb:stylevar body_background};
border-bottom: {vb:stylevar popupmenu_border};
text-decoration: none;
padding: 10px 10px;
}

* html .flexdropdownmenu li{ /*IE6 CSS hack*/
display: inline-block;
width: 170px; /*width of menu (include side paddings of LI A*/
}

.flexdropdownmenu li a:hover, .flexdropdownmenu li.selected>a{
background: {vb:stylevar imodhilite_backgroundColor};
color: {vb:stylevar imodhilite_color};
text-decoration: underline;
}

.rightarrowclass{
position: absolute;
top: 6px;
right: 5px;
}

table,td,th
{
border:0px;
}
table
{
width:100%;
}
th
{
height:75px;
}
text-align:center;
}

Click save.

Now look for your header template. At the very top of the template, before everything else add.

HTML Code:

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript" src="flexdropdown.js">

</script>

Click Save

Now for the menu.

While still in the templates menu, look for Navigation / Breadcrumb Templates-->navbar, in the navbar template look for {vb:raw ad_location.global_below_navbar}, directly underneath add the following.

(You will need to change the coloured text to suit your needs Image Links, Destination links, Menu Item, Category/Sub Category Names)

Code:

<!-- Da-Vinci Navbar Multi Level Icon Menu -->
<table>
<tr>
<td align="center"><img src="your image link goes here">
<p><a href="destination link 1" data-flexmenu="flexmenu1">Category Name 1</a></p></td>

Yeah, try changing your link to this

<a href="JavaScript:void()" data-flexmenu="flexmenu1">

Thus clicking will not work!

You can just do the following to simplify things. This is how I set my Home button. (Return to forum index)

Code:

<td align="center"><img src="images/misc/home.png" alt="Return to Forum index">
<p><a href="forum.php">Home</a></p></td>

By leaving the data-flexmenu="flexmenu1" part out of the url it will just become a standard url without the dropdown option.
