Hi Guys,

Have some questions regarding the mega menu. I have looked at a few videos regarding the mega menu steup but I am wondering if all my joomla is not updated as I don’t get the same options in the back end as are shown in the videos.

I am trying to do some redesign on the following site http://www.millionaireasia-indonesia.com over the holidays and would like to have the mega menu displaying like when you mouse over the Destination Guides button on the following site http://www.elitetraveler.com

Is this possible or do I need to upgrade all my systems?

Many thanks Jim.

It doesn’t look like you have your main navigation set for the mega menu feature.

Thanks Tom,

That is the video I looked at but when i go in my admin backend I don’t find the same options. Which makes me think maybe I am not running the right version? Or I am looking in the wrong place.

Did you look in Template Manager–JA Orisite (default) –Menu Assignment?

Hi Tom,

Sorry this is what I get when I go to Template manager Oristie

When I click on all the tabs I don’t see any menu assignment area.

Sorry Tom.

Check –> Template Manager–Options–Profiles (tab)–Menu Settings–Menu System . . .

Make sure you have selected “Mega Menu” within the choices.

SAVE CHANGES–CLEAR CACHE–REFRESH

Hi Tom,

Yep that was set already. See attached.

Not sure what I am doing wrong that I cannot find the same view and options as in the video.

Hi Jim,

The correct documentation on know to set up the Mega Menu on JA Orisite template can be found in http://wiki.joomlart.com/wiki/JA_Template_Framework/Navigation. Basically, you just need to do 3 simple steps:

– Create the sub-menu items for the parent menu.
– Configure the dropdown menu using the Parameters (JA Extended) tab
– Select the Mega Menu in Menu settings of profile to get the dropdown styles of our JAT3v2 framework.

Remember to clear JAT3 cache after updating backend changes. It is a button on the top right of dashboard.

Note: You also can refer the documentation to configure our template profiles in http://wiki.joomlart.com/wiki/JA_T3_Framework_2/Guides#Profiles_Panel .

Thanks Leo,

Will give that a go later. Looks like the information i needed.

At the moment I can’t try it as I have another problem that I cannot work out http://www.joomlart.com/forums/topic/not-sure-what-i-have-done-but-slideshow-disappeared-and-top-menu-not-working/ which makes it hard to continue making changes.
