Multi-level navbar via hooks?

[DennisHermannsen]

Hi.

 

Is it possible to create a multi-level navbar? I'm currently working on a design for v6, but I've never in my life worked with hooks before, so everything is brand new to me

This is what I want:

1. Hover over menu item 'Menu 1'

2. Hover over 'Dropdown'

3. When hovering, a new 'menu' appears, containing other items

Bump - might've posted in the wrong section...

action hooks used to generate HTML menu items code, but what you want the hovering stuff is CSS related so as soon as you have menu items generated for you, CSS rules can be applied to achieve what you need here

 

was that clear?

 

here is how you can control menu items: http://docs.whmcs.com/Client_Area_Navigation_Menus_Cheatsheet

hmm, I wonder how easy it would be to dump the WHMCS navbar method and just use another bootstrap menu - that would remove the ridiculous need to use hooks to modify the menus!

 

oh don't get me wrong, I can write the hooks (and have for clients), it's just annoying to have to do so.

sentq, it's not entirely CSS related. It requires changes to the HTML code as well

 

Oh Brian, believe me... That was the first think I thought of - removing the need for hooks and just use plain HTML... But I like learning new stuff, and I've never used hooks before, so I'm hooked on learning this!

the same answer it's not related to action hooks, if you need to apply changes to HTML code you need to do it with /templates/six/includes/navbar.tpl

Ah, ok. Thanks for the help Will try to have a look at it later today.
