Looking to turn off most functions in the horizontal menu and rely on the vertical one. How can I turn off all options except: User, Login/Register, Admin, Host.
I desire to use the vertical menu for everything else. I also want to keep the formatting/menu bar in place and deleting the menu tag altogether takes the menu bar away too.
Thanks

1.go to page.ascx in edit view.
2. Find <dnn:ARTMENU ID="ArtMenu1" ShowHiddenTabs="False" ShowAdminTabs="True" ShowDeletedTabs="False" ShowLoginTab="True" ShowUserTab="True" runat="server" />
3.Set False to : ShowLoginTab,ShowAdminTabs
4.Save and run again.
OR
Go to the DesktopModules find Artmenu Module and here is you can STRONGLY Delete these Tab ;)

Thanks, but I'm looking for exactly the opposite. Leave the login, admin, etc, hide the rest of the pages.

May I suggest you just don't use the menu and add other skin objects instead ?
Like USER and LOGIN??? (USER change from register to user profile link if you're logged in)
You have the Admin & Host Tabs in the top panel already so there's no need to show those in the menu, because to do that you would have to hide all other pages from the menu in every tab settings!

I'm presuming that you are talking about "Admin" and "Host" being in the edit bar/ribbon. That would be fine, execept it is a little different with every version of DNN and they aren't there in all versions. I don't want to have to click link after link to get somewhere.
As to USER/Login/Register, yes I know how that works and I want those in the horizontal menu bar.
BUT I WANT TO TURN OFF THE REST OF THE TABS in the horizontal bar without losing the bar itself and having to sit and screw with the CSS for a couple hours, as I have don't before with Artisteer skins. It's much simplier if I can just change menu options and accomplish what I want.
And hiding pages from the menu has nothing to do with this. I want them visible, in the vertical menu, just not horizontal.

tough one here. Really, you would using the horizontal menu as a skin object for login and user.
The ArtMenu doesn't support what you want to do without some code modification.
I think the best option is to do what MikeC suggested and add in the DNN skin objects for login and user...then remove the horizontal ArtMenu entirely.
Not a great solution but it would work.

I've done exactly that on another site/skin, but looking for an easier route. I should be something in the options and perhaps this is a hint for the developers to add it?
Come on guys, what about the word "SUPPORT"? Whether or not I get what I want I would expect you to at least answer these forums.

I've noticed that you need to use their support system to get a direct response. They tend to keep the forum "community". At first this bugged me but their support has been pretty good for me.
One option would be to write a version of the menu....I did this for a client project that wanted to use the DNN logo object INLINE with the menu itself and it worked out well. Just created a copy, renamed everything, made the code changes and then replaced the menu in the kin.ascx with my own object. The menu code is not compiled and easy to follow.
Just another option.
Perhaps a "contributions" forum would also be a good idea?

I don't "need" to Steven, but assuming you are the same Steven that is on Ventrian all the time, you know the value of sharing with the community! That's what I'm trying to do here. I'm sure this can benefit someone else as well and a direct response benefits only me!

MikeC,
Like your suggestion. Looking at your reply....I would like to take away the horisontal menu completely and only work with the vertical.
I am quite new to DNN and Artisteer. How would i go about your suggestion above?
Thanks
Johan
