Is panels brakes drupal menu?Is drupal menu works ok with panels? I am using drupal 5 Thanks
My drupal 5, panels 2 site works great. Verify that you're using the one of the core themes to make sure everything is working, and that you haven't set your panel to hide drupal blocks.

Part of the Panels 3 work is to have integration with the new Drupal menu system in D6. You might check out the latest alpha there.

Has anybody here used the "Nice_Menus" module?
I could really use some help with the rather complex css layout.
I have been fiddling around with the css for hours and I just cannot figure out how to code the following (I'm trying to set-up the drop- down/horizontal menu option): - Set overall font for menus - center the type within each menu section - make width of each main menu section the same as the drop downs directly beneath
...and finally, is there a way to set the exact width of the entire "nice_menu" bar?

Nice menus is good for back-end administrative use. I think, for the reasons you've outlined below, few use it for front-end interfaces. Brian

I've been persisting with it and I'm slowly getting there, although I must say support is quite poor.
The style sheet is very poorly commented and could really do with being considerably stripped down IMO.
But as a drop down menu once you figure out the css it does the job nicely - even as front-end navigation.
Are there are other drop-down navigation options?

I also really have to disagree on this. Nice menus is a good option for front end css based dropdowns in Drupal as it adds the IE javascript for you and prepares some of the css and theming work nicely. It also gives some api for printing the menu's via php where you want, so it works better and easier together with Drupal. Before I have included different dropdown menus via theming in Drupal sites without extra modules, used simplemenu module for front end dropdowns, but prefer now the nice menu module for the above mentioned reasons. Actually for backend menus, I think administration menu module is better if you just want a vertical dropdown menu on top.
About the question of Marc, I think this is a pure css question which has little to do with Drupal. It's about how to style the html that the nice menu outputs differently from the css that is ready made included in the module.
To understand the way a css dropdown works I would recommend reading the more or less original Suckerfish dropdown article http://htmldog.com/articles/suckerfish/dropdowns and then look at a jquery based version like Superfish http://users.tpg.com.au/j_birch/plugins/superfish. There are several other variations around with some more nice jquery effects, which I hope would make it into nice menus (see d.o node 322962). If you want to change the look of the menu I would recommend the book http://www.cssmastery.com. Like fixing the width of the dropdown is just ul ul li {width:200px}; because you want to change the second level of the list and make sure you are talking to the right classes or ids of the ul or li elements you want to change. But as said, that is basic css knowledge, so its better you invest some time in learning it, otherwise you will have to search for css snippets every time you want to style something.

I'm setting up the Nice_Menus block and I have a couple of questions.
1) Although I have "Block Title" set to "<none>", the title is still displaying - how do I remove this? I seem to have clicked on something in admin somewhere an am unable to find what I did and how to unset the block display.
2) Although I have the Nice_Menus block visibility set to everybody ("If you select no roles, the block will be visible to all users"), it is currently only visible to logged in users. How do I remedy this?
Thanks,Marc
