I'm having some problem making the menu module work in the way I would expect it to work.

Basically the problem is that the menu module turns the url alias into its real path and then the url writer
turns it back into its original alias, or the first one.

You can see the effect here http://www.ubertechs.co.uk/site2/

I'd appreciate any comments/fix for this please?

thanks
D

hey dirky,

could you describe your problem a little more. i visited the site and it seemed to work fine by my estimation. maybe if you described very specifically what you would like to see hapen differently that the currently behavior.

Oops, sorry I should have been more specific.

1)Choose "For home" main menu, choose the 3 sub menus, they appear to work fine.

2)Choose "For office" main menu, choose one of the first 3 sub
menus, it now displays the "for home/menu" item instead?

Does that make it clearer?

Thanks
D

Yeah, I guess this is actually the desired behavior for the menu module. You have several links in the menu pointing to one page. That page, Contact for Ubertechs, for example, can only live in one part of the menu. Make some more pages for the unique information you want under eack major header and they will stay linked under that menu header.

Make sense?

Yes, I guess that will do the trick. Trying to move from Mambo I
just got hung up on this one I think.
Thats a workaround that will fix it for now.

thanks
