I have installed the theme and follow basic setup. Now I was setting up the menu and followed the instructions in the handbook.
However My menu doesn't show the dropdowns.

I have the Primary Link as my menu, went into theme and turned off primary then went to blocks and put primary into suckefish region. The nav is there but the dropdowns won't work.

Thoughts?

Thanks
Tim

Hi,

Did you set the parent menu as "expanded"?

About --> this parent menu must set to "expanded".

I couldn't see the figure but I turned off nice menu module and it worked.

A seperate question...
I am now try to add my blocks to the right side and I can only get one to populate. The other get pushed to the bottom of the page.
I tried adding height to the right-side area. What should work.

Thanks!!!
Tim

Yes the image is missing :)

I'm sorry but what do you mean? did you mean you try to creating a new region? The Danland block is collapsible so there are a lot variation there.

Actually, All I did was use the page-front and then blocks. In blocks I have three separate blocks one on top of another. But only the first block goes into the right region. The other two go under the body content near the footer. I am trying to figure out why all three won't just go into the right-side area.

What I am trying to do is use only 2 column view. So I am only using the right side blocks.
Is the style sheets I am looking at the sidebar-side-1 and 2, I am not sure of the difference or which style sheet to adjust to make the right side a little wider.

Thanks!

In Drupal, sometimes if we change to a new theme, we must configuring the block again. Let say that you already setup the block in another theme and switch to Danland, in first time using Danland then you must setup the block again. If still got the same problem, you can setup all block to "none" except the navigation, click "Save". Now configuring the block again.

To do that you can change this code

Two column left sidebar size

#sidebar-side-1 #sidebar-left {
width: 26%; <-- change this  to adjust the left column size -->
float: left;
margin-right: 2%;
padding-top: 10px;	
}

Two column right sidebar size

#sidebar-side-1 #sidebar-right {
width: 26%; <-- change this  to adjust the right column size -->
float: right;
padding-top: 10px;	      
}

This is content area to display the story, blog etc.

.sidebars-2 #content-front{
width: 54%; <-- change this -->
float: left;
padding-top: 10px;
}

.sidebars-2 #content{
width: 54%; <-- change this -->
float: left;
padding-top: 10px;
}

The rule is if we change 26% to 30% then we must change the 54% to 50%.

I turned them all off and then I added two new blocks and both simple images at 199px wide and still only one will show up top. See attached.

thank you!

And then I went in and made ...

#sidebar-side-1 #sidebar-right {
width: 26%; <-- changed to 36% -->
float: right;
padding-top: 10px;      
}

and then this to ...

.sidebars-2 #content-front{
width: 54%; <-- changed to 44% -->
float: left;
padding-top: 10px;
}

.sidebars-2 #content{
width: 54%; <-- changed to 44% -->
float: left;
padding-top: 10px;
}

And nothing happened.

When I switched to the theme I turned everything off, blocks and content.
I'll keep trying tfor now. Keep throwing ideas at me...

Thanks!!!

That is strange, did you already turn off the CSS or JavaScript optimization? or page caching. Or clear the cached data.

timwhelan’s picture

timwhelan commented

Both were already off and I have been clearing cache a lot.
I will try for a little bit longer. I might need to try something else.

You don't have a fixed version do you? I was mostly looking for two column with dropdown menus.
I will come back to it I am sure.

thank you for your help!!!

I have the same problem in previous version 6.x-1.9 and now with 6x-1.10 continues.

My parent menu as "expanded" and I clear cached data. What happens?

The problem is solved: Configuration page of the theme, primary links --> unmarked

For comment #15 can you be more specific as to how you solved this problem. I am not a coding expert and need a little more guidance to correct the problem.
Thanks.

@donna: try this

All Product > set this as expanded.
Product1 > dropdown menu 1
Product2 > dropdown menu 2

Go to Administer > Site building > Themes > Configure > Danland (admin/build/themes/settings/danland). Uncheck the Primary links, "Save configuration".

Go to Administer > Blocks. Place the Primary links block in Superfish menu region.

Please read the handbook.

Thanks,
Dan

Thanks. I did read the manual but apparently missed the part where I had to turn off primary links from the theme settings. This is different from other themes.

Thanks again.

Thans @DanProbo that was very helpful. It makes sense, it just wasn't that obvious looking at it. Nice theme BTW!
