Special menu items module

Servit - May 4, 2009 - 09:18

Description
------------

Special menu items is a Drupal module that provides placeholder and separator menu items.

A placeholder is a menu item which is not a link. It is useful with dynamic drop down menus where we want to have a parent menu item which is not linking to a page but just acting as a parent grouping some menu items below it.

A separator menu item is something like "-------" which is not linking anywhere but merely a mean to structure menus and "separate" menu items visually.

Features
------------

  • User can create a new menu item and place either "nolink" or "separator" to the Path field, without quotes.
  • When the menu is rendered the "nolink" item will be rendered similar to a normal menu link
    item but there will be no link just the title. Since version 1.3 you can change HTML tag used for menu item.
  • When the menu is rendered the "separator" item will be rendered to an item which is no link
    and by default title will be "-------". Since version 1.3 it is possible to change both HTML tag and title.
  • Breadcrumb of "nolink" will be rendered same as "nolink" menu item.
  • CSS class "nolink" is added to "nolink" menu item.
  • CSS class "seperator" is added to "seperator" menu item.
  • Compatible with Sitemap module.

This module depends on Menu module. It is recommended to use SimpleMenu module or another dynamic menu module or you will not be able to acess children of nolink menu items.
