keeping the menu up-state
keeping the menu up-state
hi,
i would like to know how i can keep the Top menu item selected even when i select a sub-menu item from that category.
on this page: http://insight-design-group.com/CMSimpl ... ng_started
you can see i have selected the page 'getting started' which is the sub-menu item from the category ' About CMSimple SE & stuff '
how do i keep ' About CMSimple SE & stuff ' highlighted or ANY top menu item even if i select a sub-menu item under those top level items.
hope this makes sense to someone out there....

Re: keeping the menu up-state
In your CMSimple configurations there is an input field asigned as "menu_sdoc:". Add the word "parent" to the input field and save. That's it. It is described in: http://www.cmsimple.com/?Installer%27s_ ... figuration.kweku wrote:.....how do i keep ' About CMSimple SE & stuff ' highlighted or ANY top menu item even if i select a sub-menu item under those top level items.

Then you may have made a mistake. Have you pushed the SAVE button?kweku wrote:...doesnt seem to work? (
Which CMSimple version do you use? I don't know very much about the SE version of CMSimple-styles.com. Your HTML source code still says:
Code: Select all
li class="docs"
Code: Select all
li class="sdocs"
Have you read the notes at http://www.cmsimple.com/?Installer%27s_ ... figuration, which I mentioned above????

Re: keeping the menu up-state
Should work, i changed nothing in my SE version about this behavior. Maybe try my advanced toc script it also has this feature built in.
Re: keeping the menu up-state
guys im a bit confused...
ive loaded a test from scratch: http://insight-design-group.com/cmsimple32
i have also changed the sdoc to parent in this on too but still it is not working at all? when i select say a sub-menu item i wanted the TOP menu item to be selected as well as the sub-menu item but nothing has changed?
what am i missing. perhaps im not explaining myself clearly enough. This is a standard version of cmsimple.....
here: http://insight-design-group.com/cmsimpl ... H3_heading
you can see the H3 heading is highlighted, fine, but i also wanted the parent item ( How to create pages ) to also stay selected.
very frustrating

by the way, password is test to this site.
ill probably get a better template with a horizontal drop down menu - to better illustrate the issue.

Re: keeping the menu up-state
sorry guys i can confirm its now working, just like you said it would....
i guess i have to figure out what exactly has changed with my installation of SE and the template im using - this is going to be a real headache as i have made quite a few customizations.
