I don’t have Mers but it if is like Cloris – it looks a similar design, I think they are modules if memory serves me right. You might want to try looking in Module Manager to see.

Hi sijas

To change your menu item you need to edit the layouts in Template Manager — JA_Mers – Default — Edit Style — Layouts Tab

For example below is showed the Default layout

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layout name="desktop" body-class="bd-default">
<!--Extra css load for this layout-->
<stylesheets>
</stylesheets>
<blocks name="top" style="xhtml">
<block name="header" type="header" main-inner="4"></block>
<block name="onepage" type="onepage" pageid="" no-wrap="1" no-main="2">
<page name="home" type="modules" title="About me" class="color1 first-item">page1</page>
<page name="photos" type="modules" title="Photos" class="color2">page2</page>
<page name="our-story" type="modules" title="Stories" class="color3">page3</page>
<page name="events" type="modules" title="Event" class="color4">page4</page>
<page name="our-blog" type="modules" title="Blog" class="color5">page5</page>
<page name="youll-say" type="modules" title="Guestbook" class="color6 last-item">page6</page>
</block>
<block name="subnav" type="subnav" main-inner="4"></block>
<block name="cpanel" type="usertools/cpanel"></block>
</blocks>
<blocks name="middle" colwidth="27" main-inner="6" fixheight="1">
<block name="content-mass-top" main-inner="4">content-mass-top</block>
<block name="right1">left,right</block>
<block name="content-mass-bottom" main-inner="4">content-mass-bottom</block>
</blocks>
<blocks name="bottom" style="xhtml">
<block name="botsl1" type="spotlight" main-inner="3" special="right" specialwidth="27">user1,user2,user3,user4</block>
<block name="navhelper" type="navhelper" main-inner="3"></block>
<block name="footer" type="footer" main-inner="3"></block>
</blocks>
</layout>

The RED color shows the title of the menu item while the blue color shows the position where your custom-html module must be published

If you check for modules published in position “page1” you will see a module called “About us” in that module is stored the content for the “ABOUT ME” page

Hi synncom,

In this case, i suggest you to check out the profile which contains your customized layout, you assigned to the Home menu item in Template Manager >> Language & Page Assignments . Then clear JAT3 cache.
i.e: On our demo JA Mers site
– Profile: Homepage
– Layout: “home” layout (JA_Mers – Default — Edit Style — Layouts Tab — Home)

Hi Leo,

I am unsure what you are explaining on how to do it?

is there a way to not use the 1 Page Layout and make Menu items like Standard Joomla Items that click to Pages ?
In other words get rid of the existing menu all together ?

Hi synncom,

It seems that i explained not clearly in changing menu item on JA Mers template. By default, the Homepage is using the homepage profile containing the home layout (home.xml). If you want to change the menu item title, you need to open templatesja_mersetclayoutshome.xml, find lines:

<page name="home" type="modules" title="About me" class="color1 first-item">page1</page>
<page name="photos" type="modules" title="Photos" class="color2">page2</page>
<page name="our-story" type="modules" title="Stories" class="color3">page3</page>
<page name="events" type="modules" title="Event" class="color4">page4</page>
<page name="our-blog" type="modules" title="Blog" class="color5">page5</page>
<page name="youll-say" type="modules" title="Guestbook" class="color6 last-item">page6</page>

Change the title of corresponding menu items to your desired texts.

In order to make all menu items like standard Joomla menu, you can go to Template Manager >> JA_Mers – Default >>Language & Page Assignments >> Then assign the Default profile to Home menu item. Clear JAT3 cache to make the changes effective.

Everytime I try this method, it breaks my page and gives me a line 72 error. I attempted to only change a single “about me” into anything, and the error repeats. Is there a setting somewhere or a matched file I’m not editing appropriately?

Thank you in advance.
