- Witch Version er correct for php 4.4.4.?
- I get an error: Cannot load webdezine_css_menu.php.

Can you help?
Thank you for your time and work!
Markus

However the menu doesn’t work on my tryout-site, I get a text “(function_exists(’get_menu’)) get_menu(’topmenu’)” instead of the menu.

You can check it out at
ericzuzi.ericmathot.com

I must have pasted the code in the wrong place (i placed it in the body of the header code).

Could you help me out, I would love to use your neat-looking menu!

Eric

Thanks for your quick response by the way

Please replace the blogroll function found beginning at line 740 in webdezine_css_menu.php with this function:


function webdezine_list_blogroll ($top_name_display = 'Blogroll',$head_name_class = 'blogroll_top', $sub_parent_link_class = 'blogroll_child', $roll_link_class = 'blogroll_link',$display_link_count = '0', $bobrace = '(', $eobrace = ')') {
   global $wpdb;
 
//INITAL CALLS TO THE DB
   $blogroll_query = get_blog_roll ();
  if (isset($blogroll_query)){
//HTML NECESSARY TO MAKE THE CSS WORK
    $parent_group_start_string     = '<!--[if IE 7]><!--></a><!--<![endif]--><table><tr><td><ul>';
    $parent_group_end_string       = '</ul></td></tr></table><!--[if lte IE 6]></a><![endif]--></li>';
 
//START THE ENGINE
   $output = '';
   $output .= '<ul><li><a class="'.$head_name_class.'" href="" rel="nofollow">'.$top_name_display.$parent_group_start_string;
 
   foreach ($blogroll_query as $cats){
                if ($cats->category_parent==0){    //discovering whether the category is a parent by comparing the cat id with the parent id array
                        $output .= '<li><a class="'.$sub_parent_link_class.'" title="'.$cats- rel="nofollow">cat_ID.'-'.$cats->cat_name .'" href="'.$cats->cat_ID.'">'.$cats->cat_name ;
                         if  ($display_link_count == 1 ){
                        $output .= $bobrace .$cats->link_count.$eobrace; }
                        $output .= $parent_group_start_string;
 
                        $current_parent_id = $cats->cat_ID;
                                foreach ($blogroll_query as $child_cats){
                                        if  ($child_cats->cat_ID == $current_parent_id) {
                                                $output .= '<li><a class="'.$roll_link_class.'" href="'.$child_cats- rel="nofollow">link_url.'" rel="'.$child_cats->link_rel.' name="'.$child_cats->link_name.'" title="'.$child_cats->link_description .

                                                 }
                                                }

Any ideas?

Sheri

Thanks for your work, it’s the best menu I’ve seen thus far and I’m a tagging/classification/navigation fanatic.

Balack

That is an interesting suggestion! I actually created a “fixed” CSS script for another site that required a SSL image to remain at the bottom right hand corner with or without javascript. So, it can be done. It bounces in IE6 but moves very smoothly in firefox.

Thanks for the suggestion!

One other question: are you committed to this plugin and/or is it future proof? Will WP 7.3 still understand you? Please…Childhood discovery is one thing, old age care another.

Cheerio, Balack

Not sure what you mean by categorization.

As to the committed thing, as long as I don’t have to sign in blood, yes I am committed but I hope that by the time WP 7.3 is released, they have a group of menu options to choose from in the vanilla model so no extra plugins are necessary.

Do you know why that handle is in the logo? My main project is creating an e-cart for a Montessori Mall of sorts. Wordpress is just the vehicle I am using to document my development…but it seems to have taken over somewhat.

All I want is my “Directory” category to have a drop down for each sub category that is in the directory, each of which I’m creating with the “Directory” being the parent.

Any thoughts on how to do this, without too much of a headache?

Thanks,
Jim

This seems like a great plugin and may be very useful to me. However, upon install and adding the directed code to the header, I get a bunch of errors on my blog page. I am a bit of a newbie here (gasp!), so it may be something I did… but I don;t know what that could be.

Errors are as follows:

Warning: call_user_func_array(): First argumented is expected to be a valid callback, 'webdezine_list_pages' was given in /home/content/.../html/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/webdezine_css_menu.php on line 799

I am using the Andreas 04 theme that is all widgety and whatnot.

Thanks for the comment. This plugin will continue to work with future versions of WP until they change the way the database saves data.

The menu is designed to allow each heading to be the width of the word with uniform additional pixels to the right and left.

To change this to be uniform width regardless of length of word you need to assign a width to the topmost link in the css file:

.topmenu a, .topmenu a:visited

Simply choose a width that you want.

Best, Sheri

*WHOOPS* 04/14/07 - you also need to assign the same width to the hover attribute for the top-most links:

.topmenu ul li a.topmenu1:hover
.topmenu ul li a.topmenu2:hover
etc.
.topmenu ul li:hover a.topmenu1
.topmenu ul li:hover a.topmenu2
etc.

Without assigning a width to these classes, your menu would revert back to the old style on hover.

I am working hard on getting the next version out so that this error is eradicated. For now, if you could simply add a blogroll link the error will go away. If you want to fix it yourself, the fix is located above in the comment by Eric.

Best, Sheri

The errors that you are getting are related to the display of the menu. It’s indicating that the functions which create the meat and potatoes of the menu are not being recognized. Which version of WP are you using?

I am currently using build 2.1.3.

As I said above, I am getting the main list displayed in the current template I am using. However, all of the dropdowns are empty or not dropping at all except the Meta tab. I tired clicking on the empty menu buttons out of curiousity and they simply re-loaded my site.

I have the Opera fix in place for the next release. Just finalizing the various components of the next version(was away in Las Vegas for a week and the catch-up is killing me!). It will include support for PHP5, PHP4, WP 2.0+, WP 2.1+, as well as personal and commercial applications of the menu. There will also be a in-depth support forum for people who register their versions by making donations or payments as in the case of a commercial version. I also have a menu in the works for those who use WP as a basic CMS - rather than multiple menus with headings, it will allow the blogger to list the top-most page(s)/category(s) spread across the top. Lots in the works…but only 24 hours in a day.

Not sure if I am breaking etiquette by putting this below the original comment line or not, but here I go anyway…

I tried both versions of the plugin with the other template, but only PHP4 with this one. I am (fairly) certain that my server has 4 installed, but I plan to try the other version again anyway and hope for the best. As yet, I still have not been able to get the dropdowns to populate.

Thanks!

Perhaps you should assume the title of Super _______ and bask in the glory of your adoring public. *nod nod*

Thanks again!

P.S. Any plugin that does not put anything into the head section would not be effected by the strange structure of the theme

I have another question/problem/…thingy.

I have been doing more testing and have added some nested categories to my site. While I am very pleased to discover that the menu you have created only shows categories that actually contain content, I have discovered that, for some reason, the nesting isn’t diplaying properly.

For example, I have put a post under the categories of:

Writing
—> Fiction
——> Character Development
——> Fantasy

each category being checked.

The Menu shows this:

Categories
|
|
Writing
—> Fiction
——> Character Development
|
|
Fantasy

Any ideas?

None yet. You put one post under multiple categories that are nested? I just tried that (on the new version that is not yet released mind you) and had no issues.

OK, tried that on this site (which uses the current version) and still no issues.

If you have a url for me to look at it would help. If you don’t want to post it you could email it to me : i’m the first one on the members list located on the members page of the members menu above (what a mouthful that was!)

It’s possible the problem could be related to the theme I’m using: Unnamed One SE 1.0 Awesome theme, but I am having a few other problems with it at the moment.

Thanks again for your help!

I am so very sorry for causing you more work — but better the problem is caught early, I suppose, eh?

Changing the file name to css_menu.php didn’t seem to work for me, as it did for Eric…I got the exact same parse error.

Got any ideas? The concept is great & I’d love to get it working.

thanks,
pq

Hold on..its coming!

But I’m looking for slight different think, I want all top level pages be shown on the menu bar and sub page shown as dropdown while hovering, it can be done?

My recommendation is, to allow through the parameters, to select that top level pages and top level categories will be shone in the bar itself.

All the best,
Dror

Thanks for the compliment! I am currently working on the next version of this menu - there are a few things that are not working (parameters and such), but I also have a template created to do exactly what you are looking for. Those menus will be released individually, i.e. each menu will be separate - many people use Wordpress as a CMS and pages exclusively, or perhaps Categories exclusively. I had hoped to have the rewrite done by now, but rather than release just fixes I am re-writing the whole menu to clean it up.

Your suggestions are great though! Maybe I should add more options rather than offer different menus! Food for thought.

Best,Sheri

The options you suggested are now within the new version! Thanks for taking the time to write.

Take care,
Sheri

from what i read here you did a great job!

I’ll wait to php 4 version to test it…

thanks,
Dror

At my site:

http://www.beautyengine.org/v2

I get these errors (you’ll see them when you visit)

Warning: array_count_values(): The argument should be an array in /home/content/b/e/a/beautyengine/html/v2/wp-content/plugins/webdezine_menu/wd_all_the_menus.php on line 445

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/content/b/e/a/beautyengine/html/v2/wp-content/plugins/webdezine_menu/wd_all_the_menus.php on line 448

This was a straightforward install and I’m pretty savvy…it worked fine on another blog of mine:

http://www.utnosago.com

So, can anyone help me here? This is a great plugin and since it’s working in one blog, it should work simply on the other, right?

thanks in advance for any help!
Scooter

The error messages are from the archive menu. Very strange indeed. If there are no archives to be displayed the script should have stopped long before it got to that line. I do see that you have the menu up and running on the site in question though. Could you post what you did to remove that error?

Thanks Sheri

Thanks in advance Jochen

Is there a way to change the appearance of the order of the menue.

I would like to have another order?

Thanks in advance Jochen

Thanks!

The site is currently sitting behind a UN & PW. Can I email you?

Thanks!
Ian

Good luck with your blog!

it should be located here :
http://snowleafstudio.com/blog/wp-content/plugins/webdezine_menu/wd_menu_style.css

but it is not. can you check the extracted zip file that you downloaded and make sure that the css file is there and that you load it to the above location?

Is your admin working ok?

Just dropped you a mail to sheri[at]webdezine[dot]ca and it got bouncedback?

Sheri

But my hosts php version is 4.4.1 and there isn’t any download link for it. Please help me !

Thank you again.

Best, Sheri

The two demos above show the differences that can be achieved through those display options.

You can choose to remove the title link for pages, but leave it in for your categories and archives - or any combination you wish. Great for displaying the most important parts of your individual blog front and center, but having the others still accessible.

Best,
Sheri
P.S. If you do decide to purchase a commercial license please remember to fill in the username and email portions of the paypal form, or you will not get the confirmation of payment.

I just purchased the commercial license. Thanks so much!

I too would like to be able to insert external (or specific pages) as Main Options, other than “Page”, “Category”, “Archive”, etc.

Any idea as to when this functionality may be available, OR, a quick and dirty hack until it is availab
