Is there a simple way to remove the scripting in s5_navv and make it a module position I can assign menus to? Let me explain...

We just bought your beautiful template and are setting up our site: http://74.52.60.162/~penguins/index.php

Due to the way we are planning to use the navigation we need to assign different menus to the mainmenu position for each page.

If you go to: http://74.52.60.162/~penguins/index.php/home-3#s5_bottom_row2_area1 you can see the module "Books (pages)" with our page navigation (I currently only have 2 set up) on each page we want the mainmenu to show only the scrolling links for that page. So... for the About Page I would like the mainmenu to be replaced with "Main Menu - About Us" menu you can see in the red section here: http://74.52.60.162/~penguins/index.php/about-us-2

I hope this is not too confusing! Thanks for your help on this!

Hello,

Yes you could do this but it could require custom coding, you'd need to open up the index.php file and look for:


      <?php mosShowListMenu($menu_name);   ?>               
         <?php if ($s5_jsmenu  == "s5") { ?>
            <?php if ($s5_menu  == "1") { ?>
               <script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo $s5_directory_path ?>/js/s5_drop_in_no_moo_menu.js"></script>                                                      
            <?php } ?>
            <?php if ($s5_menu  == "2") { ?>
               <script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo $s5_directory_path ?>/js/s5_fading_no_moo_menu.js"></script>                                                      
            <?php } ?>   
            <?php if ($s5_menu  == "3") { ?>
               <script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo $s5_directory_path ?>/js/s5_scroll_down_no_moo_menu.js"></script>                                                      
            <?php } ?>   
         <?php } ?>   
         
         <script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo $s5_directory_path ?>/js/s5_menu_active_and_parent_links.js"></script>   
         

and replace with a module position

That is what I thought, just not sure how to add a module position. If you could tell me, that would be great.  Grin
Is it the same as in Joomla 1.6 as explained here: http://docs.joomla.org/How_do_you_add_a_new_module_position%3F

Add it with the following:

<?php s5_module_call('top_row1_3','round_box'); ?>

Just replace "top_row1_3" with your new module position name
