Let's say in Joomla, I have a menu set up as follows:
Menu A (alias: menu_a)
Sub Menu A1 (alias: submenu_a1)
Sub Menu A2 (alias: submenu_a2)
Sub Menu A3 (alias: submenu_a3)
Menu B (alias: menu_b)
Sub Menu B1 (alias: submenu_b1)
Sub Menu B2 (alias: submenu_b2)
Sub Menu B3 (alias: submenu_b3)
Menu C (alias: menu_c)
I want to set up menu modules at the footer for all the sub menus with the menu as title. It will be like as follows:
Module 1 Title: Menu A
Sub Menu A1
Sub Menu A2
Sub Menu A3
Module 2 Title: Menu B
Sub Menu B1
Sub Menu B2
Sub Menu B3
Is this possible?
I've tried using the usual Menu module (and RokNavMenu since I'm using RocketTheme template) but the best it can show using level limitation is as follows:
Sub Menu A1
Sub Menu A2
Sub Menu A3
Sub Menu B1
Sub Menu B2
Sub Menu B3
Alternatively I can simply just create a new menu and duplicate Menu A and another for Menu B but this will create a different url to reach the submenu. Say initially the url for sub menu A1's page is domain.com/menu_a/submenu_a1. But by creating duplicates, Menu A's alias will have to change and this will result in domain.com/menu_a_2/submenu_a1 for example.
So I've seen this done in a lot of website, creating something like this 'sitemap' but how actually is this done using joomla's menu module? Note that I'm using Joomla 3.0.
#Marko D's solution is indeed correct. I just simple create a new menu but instead of the way I did it above, I set the menu type as 'menu item aliases' instead. This preserves the url and thus solving the issue.

I'd like to manipulate other cells based on the selection from a dropdown menu. For example in cell A1 I have a dropdown with company A, B, C
I need a formula for cell B3 to change the data based on the selection in cell A1.
EX:
If cell A1 selects Company A, I'd like to take data from another tab in my sheet that gives me data for company A and place it into cell B3.
If cell A1 selects Company B, I'd like to take data from another tab in my sheet that gives me data for company B also inside B3.
Basically summarizing different data based on selection of my dropdown menu.
Please try:
=if(A1="A",A!A1,if(A1="B",B!A1,C!A1))
I have two menus first one is "3D" and second one is "2D".
I have some sub menu items in common,for example Getting Started sub item common in 3D & 2D.
But i can't create that menu in same name.But that is very important in our project. How can i create sub menu items with same name?
You can't create two menu items with the same alias but you could link them using:
Menu item Type: System Links -> Menu Item Alias
This menu item will just be a link to the other item using the same alias.
Hope this helps
In menu manager (I use Isis admin template):
Tick submenu you need to duplicate
Click batch tab at top of page (a lightbox appears)
In the second box down, select where you want the menu item to come under
Under this is a copy or move option; select copy
Click Process
Done
P.S. Depending on how your menu assignment is set up, you may then have to go into module manager to your menu module (in my case CK maximenu), menu assignment tab, and tick the appropriate box so that your main menu appears on the page.
I have a litle doubt related to main items and sub items in the Joomla Main Menù.
If you open this link you can easy understand my problem: http://onofri.org/example/example1/
In this website I have a main menu under the header. This main menu contains a main items named Who We Are which in turn contains 4 sub items that appear when you hover the mouse on the parent item (Who We Are)
Clicking on these sub item correctly appear some statics pages (some articles) and this is ok.
The problem appears if you click on the main iten Who We Are, in this case appear a 404 error.
What can I do to solve this problem? Can I make not clickable the Who we Are main item?
Tnx

use "separator" as a menu kind; any other type will be clickable.
separator is available in the bottom group "System links" as "Text separator".
What I always do in such situations is avoiding using items that do not point to anywhere. It is better to do it like this:
Make Who We Are a Article type menu item that will point to article from first sub-menu item in Who We Are
Make first submenu item Erusma Birth an Alias type menu item that will point to your main menu item Who We Are
What you have now is menu where all items point to some place on website. You have no errors and easy to understand navigation. Separator should not be used as main or sub-menu item it self. More like sub-menu column name etc.
I have a standard navigation menu on my banner. Then I have another menu below that, in my body area, and this is used made to appear as 'tabs' by using css styling. Thus each tab (actually menu) has its own articles.
Now, When I click a tab, the article shows. But I have a link to the first tab on the top menu (in my banner). This links to the article in the first tab. When the menu item in the banner is clicked, the first tab's article shows fine. But it does not show the first tab as active. The first tab only shows as the active link when I click it.
How do I make the tab (menu item) active when the menu item in the banner is clicked?
To better illustrate this, I've included a screenshot.
Thanks!
First you need to put both menus into one single menu since the second is basically a submenu of the first.
After that is done you "split" the in two modules:
For the top menu you set the module options to "Start Level" 1 and "End Level" 1. And "Show Sub-menu Items" is set to "No".
The second module has the "Start Level" set to 2.
That should probably do what you want to do.
i have following menu structure and using the standard menu joomla module:
menu top items: home, techniques
menu main items: home, about
menu techniques items: tech1, tech2, ...
e.g. when i click the home top menu item, the home top menu item and the home sub menu item are shown as active. i want to have the same behaviour for the other menu times. for instance, when the sub item tech1 is clicked, tech1 and techniques should be marked as active. can i reach my goal with the standard joomla modules or is it better to use another extension?
for a demo visit this website: http://www.karl-poecher.at
i'm using joomla 1.6
e.g., when cklicking 'Segmentmassage' the top menu item 'Technicken' should be active.
Yes, but it appears where you want to highlight is in the breadcrumb component. Short answer is no, but you could instead make the menu techniques items sub items of your main menu and then restructure how the output looks with CSS accordingly.
