Title: Newb Menu Question
Post by: kevkirkpatrick on December 09, 2008, 06:41:16 AM
I can't get the main menu working on my site. The help docs give the example of a generic main menu like this:

  <div id="navigation1">
        <ul>
            <li><a href="#">Disclaimer</a></li>
            <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>
         </ul>
    </div>

but the template I have has a main menu that looks like this:

    <div class="clear"></div>
    <ul id="mainmenu">
     <!-- Put your menu links here -->
     <li><a href="index.html">Home</a></li>
     <li><a href="about-us.html">About Us</a></li>
     <li><a href="#">Services</a></li>
     <li><a href="#">Partners</a></li>
     <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
     <!-- End of menu links -->
    </ul>

Here is what the site is supposed to look like:
http://princesspaper.zeroboxes.com/p/Mockup1/index.html

Here is the website baker version of the site that I can't get to work:
http://174.132.105.66/~ppi4455/wb/



Here is what I did:

<div id="mainmenu">
    <!-- <ul id="mainmenu">

     <li><a href="index.html">Home</a></li>
     <li><a href="about-us.html">About Us</a></li>
     <li><a href="#">Services</a></li>
     <li><a href="#">Partners</a></li>
     <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
    </ul>
-->
    <?php show_menu(2); ?>
</div>


I really, really suck at html, so any help would be very much appreciated.

Hello and welcome to WebsiteBaker,
please try this show_menu2 call:
Code: [Select]
<?php show_menu2(1, SM2_ROOT, SM2_ALL, SM2_TRIM,&#39;[li][a][menu_title]</a>&#39;, &#39;</li>&#39;,&#39;<ul id="mainmenu">&#39;,&#39;</ul>&#39;,false ,false); ?>
Put the above snippet between
<div class="clear"></div>
-- here comes the sm2 call --
</div>
<div class="clear"></div>
<div id="slider">
Nice design by the way.

Regards,
Stefek
