move subnav menu bar in WHP3

Recommended Posts

leah

Ok, You guys have been SUPER helpful - I can't tell you how much I appreciate this forum! So now here's what I'd like to fix: a) on my "Home" page the links on my sub nav bar seem to be static; that is they are not actually links. I'd like to make them "clickable". B) on the Feature and Highlight pages, i'd like to move my sub nav menu bar directly under the main nav bar - NOT under the feature. Thank you once again - I'm so glad I purchased this theme, the support has been great!

also, related to this: can I make the sub menus drop-down?

Looks like you have a markup issue of some kind. if you want to shorten the feature area you'll need to adjust its height: e.g. `#featurearea: height:205px;}` are you using Firebug? its inspect tool it great for getting to the bottom of issues like this.

I adjusted the feature area already to what I want. I do use firebug, but I'll check again. I'd also like to move my subnav to directly UNDER the main nav bar, and then have the feature under that. Is there a way to do this?

Whoops yeah I am CLEARLY new to this :-) Found a whole bunch of crap thanks to Firebug (which I am now using properly). I've gotten rid of all my custon CSS and I think I'll start over now :-) I do really want to move the subnav bar though, so I'll start there once you get back to me and then slowly, one step at a time, work on the custom styling. WOW you guys must get tired of all the newbie questions; I can't tell you how much I appreciate you hanging in there with me.

I can't seem to duplicate your setup, but if you use this code : `<?php include(THEME_LIB.'/_sub_head.php');?>` just after the main navigation in the header.php it should place it above the feature and below the main nav

GREAT! That worked . . . but the original sub-nav bar is still under the feature so now I have 2 sub-nav bars; how do I get rid of the one under the feature?

Ok, being the newbie that I am, I probably shouldn't have gone and edited the template_posts.php file, but I did and it solved the problem of the double sub-nav menus. I took out the reference to the sub-nav menus in the template file, and the added <?php include(THEME_LIB.'/_sub_head.php');?> in the header.php file per your recommendation. Works nicely! I hope it didn't screw anything else up, but so far Firebug hasn't caught anything. This really is an elegantly designed theme, both visually and code-wise. THANK YOU!
