Secondary Links disappeared
cpelham - July 17, 2008 - 00:55
I have three menus.
When I go to /drupal/en/admin/build/menu
it now (perhaps since upgrading from Drupal 5.7 to 5.8?) shows only two menu titles.
When I go to /drupal/en/admin/build/menu/settings
I can see that the Menu containing secondary links: drop-down now has a blank line where it should show the name of my secondary menu.
I should note that the secondary menu itself still shows up at the top of my pages, formatted via Nice Menus. I simply can't edit the menu.
Do I need to go into the database itself and edit the menu title?
problem solved by unchecking "Collapse menus in menu admin"
Because I didn't give my secondary menu a title (one way of preventing the title from showing up; using css would probably have been a better solution), when Menu Administration collapsed by menus and only displayed the menu titles, there was nothing to display and thus nothing to expand...

different kind of problem
I Created my categories in this way: Using taxonomy I made two differents vocabulary. I checked "Required" for both.
After that I managed my primary and secondary links, set, for all secondary links, parents among the primary. Something like that
Primary: Sport, Gossip....
Secondary parent Sport: Football, tennis
Secondary parent Gossip: celebs, photos.
....
I also chose "Source for the secondary links: Primary Links "
In this way all my children are shown in secondary menu!
All works great, except when I press on any story title: Infact, If I create some story and then choose two tags among mine ( properly named as my menu's Item) and I publish my content, then press Primary menu item ( ex. sport) and secondary appear ( so "Sport" ACTIVE and "football" " tennis" in Sub-menu) and the story summery is shown just below. But If I click on the title of the story, it is perfectly shown, but the secondary menu disappear and now trail is shown!
How can I solve my problem!?!?! What I need is a very tipical Menu and Sub-menu, with "Active Trail" workable (I'm using Drupal 6.x) and the breadcrumb that follow my category!
That's my simple page code and the Style about menus
<?php if (isset($primary_links)) { ?>
<div id="primary"><?php print theme('links', $primary_links, array('class' =>'links', 'id' => 'navlist')) ?></div>
<?php } ?>
<?php if (isset($secondary_links)) { ?>
<div id="secondary"><?php print theme('links', $secondary_links, array('class' =>'links', 'id' => 'navlist')) ?></div>
<?php } ?>
<div id="page">
<?php if ($left) { ?>
<div id="sidebar-left" class="clearfix">
<?php print $left ?>
</div>
and
primary {
padding:0px 0px 0px 20px;
}
#primary ul{
display:block;
height:32px;
width:916px;
margin-left:21px;
background:url(images/BGs/bg_menu.gif) repeat-x;
font-size:12px;
font-weight:500;
font-family:Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;
}
#primary a {
display:block;
text-align:center;
color:#f2ffdf;
padding:8px 10px 0px 10px;
float: left;
text-decoration:none;
}
#primary a:hover {
height:22px;
text-decoration:none;
background:url(images/BGs/bg_menu_hover.gif) repeat-x;
}
#primary a.active-trail {
background:#c0c0c0;
color:#fff;
height:24px;
}
#primary ul.links li {
padding:0;
}
#secondary {
padding:0px 0px 0px 20px;
}
#secondary ul{
display:block;
height:32px;
width:916px;
margin-left:21px;
background:#c0c0c0;
font-size:12px;
font-weight:500;
font-family:Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;
}
#secondary a {
display:block;
text-align:center;
color:#f2ffdf;
padding:8px 10px 0px 10px;
float: left;
text-decoration:none;
}
#secondary a:hover {
height:22px;
text-decoration:none;
background:#FF6600;
}
#secondary a.active-trail {
background:#f00;
color:#fff;
height:24px;
}
#secondary ul.links li {
padding:0;
}
Thanks!
