  • Absolute positions for Custom top menu

    Posted 13 years 3 weeks ago
    • Good afternoon. I am trying to add some custom text directly above the menu in the momentum template. I want the module to be above the background slider, and not in the 'top' module position.

      I posted in the momentum forum, but i havent received a response yet, i imaging the traffic in that specific forum is pretty low in comparison. Hoping i can get some help here.

      Would the best way to do this be to create an absolute position? i am pretty new to all of this, and any assistance in how to get this in the right place would be much appreciated....

      link to orginal thread in momentum forum here:

    • Thank you for the response. I currently have it in the 'navigation' position, so I havent done anything with it yet (you can see the text under the menu on the right). The site is www.bintelli.com . I am also wanting to change the menu background to the hey instead of the black. Where in the CSS would I change this?

      Thanks again

    • Hi, thanks for the link. Usually absolute positioning is a last resort, but in this case, it might be the easiest way, just because the top part of this template is structured in a very strict way to provide the framework for the background rotator.

      Can you add a module class suffix to the module you wish to move, go into the module settings and add topmenu or something to the module class suffix field. I need to see that on your page to know if my codes will work for you, so do that and let me know.

      The black menu background is controlled by overlays.css, line 43. You can edit that line to change the bg.

    • Cool, try adding this code to your template.css
      .customtopmenu{position: absolute;
right: 0;
top: -100px;}
      Adjust the negative margin for the top to position it how you like. Hope that helps.
