Hi!

I managed to make a template with multilevel menu but encountered an other problem. There's a flash banner right under the menu and it overlays the menu (when it's drop down). Do you have any idea what to do solve this?

Thank you

Just add 2 things to your flash code to make the drop downs appear over it.

Add following

<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
OR
<param name="wmode" value="opaque">

next to one of the other param tags and also add wmode="transparent" in the embed tag.

<embed src="http://www.yoursite.com" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="400" height="300" wmode="transparent">

Thank you!

I didn't have to modify the source, it was enough to modify the properties of the "embedded media" in admin (the flash is inserted in a mod_custom module) by setting the wmode to transparent as you said.

Thank you again!

@ exiled,

Can you provide a step by step guide to do it by just changing the settings from admin so that it may be helpful for other users.

I can try but I have to say my Joomla is not English.

So my flash is embedded in a mod_custon module.
You just have to press the "embed media"(?) button on the general(?) tab you can set the usual things: media type, url and dimensons. On the second advanced(?) tab is the point. There's a dropdown menu at flash settings for Wmode. You set that to transparent and job done. Hope that helps.

i had the same problem. the only thing i needed to change was to check the "always show menu sub-items" radio button in the top-menu module. simple as that.

it works just go to joomla admin and set the main menu module to user3 position "Its set to left by default" then got to "Always show sub-menu Items" click yes. then start level 0 and end level to 3 or what ever your menu depth. close the module.
then go to the top menu module and set to left or deactivate all together.
works fine now. im using artisteer 2.3

Hey guys

i downloaded the new demo last night, and got samme problem.
The problem is that Joomla only shows the mainmenu standard.

Activate the topmenu in modules, deaktivate mainmenu.
Set topmenu to user3 posistion, and then do as Rita says. :)

Then i got i to work.

Johnny
2: and you need to activate the topmenu


:-) Thaks Jonny, you solve problem.... "use user3".... thanks alot

Hi Caroline or anyone there.
I have Artisteer 2.4, done everything on this forum but still could not get my dropdown submenu to work. Could someone please take a look at:

Hi Jenny,

You may also consider providing access to your Joomla back-end so that someone brave can take a look at your settings.
Or at least upload the generated theme somewhere and provide your website's url.

Thanks,
Caroline.

Quote Rita:

Hello,

I had the same problem and solved it.

1. In joomla go in extensions to module manager. Select the module of the menu where you want to use submenu's. At the parameter section make sure you enable "always show submenu's" and also select how deep you like to show the submenu's.

2. Make sure you activate submenu's in the template as explainer above.

Good luck ! Rita from Belgium ARTISTEER IS GREAT !

Maybe in thus menu CCS code could be the problem...

/* begin Menu */

/* menu structure */

{
text-align:left;
text-decoration:none;
outline:none;
letter-spacing:normal;
word-spacing:normal;
}

.art-menu, .art-menu ul
{
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
border: 0;
list-style-type: none;
display: block;
}

.art-menu li
{
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
border: 0;
display: block;
float: left;
position: relative;
z-index: 5;
background:none;
}

.art-menu li:hover
{
z-index: 10000;
white-space: normal;
}

.art-menu li li
{
float: none;
}

.art-menu ul
{
visibility: hidden;
position: absolute;
z-index: 10;
left: 0;
top: 0;
background:none;
}

.art-menu li:hover>ul
{
visibility: visible;
top: 100%;
}

.art-menu li li:hover>ul
{
top: 0;

}

.art-menu:after, .art-menu ul:after
{
content: ".";
height: 0;
display: block;
visibility: hidden;
overflow: hidden;
clear: both;
}
.art-menu, .art-menu ul
{

}

.art-menu ul
{

I read through all the tips here and found that one step was omitted.
I'm using v2.3

Do all the above steps:
Make sure submenu items are activated in Artisteer
Then in Joomla under Extensions -> Modules
Position: User3
Menu Name: topmenu (doesn't matter what you call it)
Menu Style: List
End Level: should be greater than 0
Always Show Sub-menu Items: yes

***The important step that was missing ***

Under Advanced Parameters

Make sure Menu Class Suffix is blank.

If you installed the default data that comes with Joomla, it will have the -nav suffix in there. Take it out.

Now save and voila! Your sub menu items for your top menu bar will now show.

Hope this tip helps those of you out there who struggled with this as I did.

Hi - I also have sub menu items sliding underneath content. No flash content underneath.

My test site and problem here - see menu button Services.

Have tried some z-index changes but to no effect.

Appreciate any ideas.

Cheers

I just reduced the z-index of the div element below it.
