Drop Down Menu options
by Holly Ferree 04 Mar '10

04 Mar '10

Hello All, I asked a few months ago about the best Drop down menu to use and got the answer Nice Menu's. My client and I have noticed that it has some odd behavior about pausing and not working (especially if the menu line is not active) and now that I actually use more than the first link now, it occurs so much that it is an issue. Is there a way to fix this or a better drop down menu system to use (need a horizontal menu able to do up to 4 levels of information (I will use menu block to split it, but still need the functionality). (please send links if possible) Thanks, Holly Ferree, Graphic Designer, BFA 813.786.0852 hferree(a)gmail.com http://www.designbyholly.com/

How do i theme blog entries by content type?
by brendan, fresh-off.com 03 Mar '10

Hello Themers! How do I theme a page based on content type? I've got a site with a few different custom pages and separate .tpl.php files for their custom layouts and CSS/XHTML. The "Blog" page is a View with a list of teasers. How do I create a custom .tpl.php file that only targets the "page" (and layout) that the individual/full blog entries are displayed on? The Theme Developer list these as the candidate files: page-node-#.tpl.php < page-node.tpl.php < page.tpl.php. But I don't want to use "page.tpl.php" as its too broad in its reach and I may decide to add other pages non-blog pages in the future. I've tried "page-blog.tpl.php" - but it broke my layout. I still have some unresolved CSS/XHTML issues, so I'm wondering if "page-blog.tpl.php" is the correct naming convention, but I just have a few bugs in my code to work out? A second (less important) question: Keeping track of all those .tpl.php files is getting confusing! The Views pages are easy ("page-blog.tpl.php" or "page-work.tpl.php" for example), but Theme Developer is telling me that for all pages using the "page" content type, that I have to style them by their ID ("page-node-1.tpl.php" for the "about" page). Is there any way to name a .tpl.php file for a page content type in a more semantic/meaningful way? Such as "page-contact.tpl.php" instead of "page-node-392.tpl.php" Thanks! brendan, fresh-off.com Creative Direction & Consultation: Web | Print | Brand http://fresh-off.com hello(a)fresh-off.com 206.328.1067

Read more link in node teaser
by Andy Walpole 18 Feb '10

Hi there Drupal droogs, I've been using the following code in the node tpl file to create a read more link in the node teaser: <?php print "<a href='/" . $node->links["node_read_more"]["href"] . "' class='readmore' title='" . $node->links["node_read_more"]["attributes"]["title"] . "..' >" . '<img src="' . base_path() . path_to_theme() . '/images/read-more.gif" width="120" height="40" alt="" />' . "</a>"; ?> Now $node->links["node_read_more"]["href"] works fine at creating the right URL until I put the site into a sub directory, and then instead of the links being /themes/?q=node/62 they are /node/62... which is wrong Does anybody have any ideas what I can do to sort this problem out?
