    Gantry Menu Item Control ineffective with new menu items

    Posted 14 years 3 months ago
    • Hello,

      I am using the Dominion template, and have a usermenu publishing to sidebar-a with main content to the right. Using the Gantry Menu Items controls, I successfully set the Mainbody Positions like this- Position: 2: sa/mb.

      However, when I add a new item to this menu, and try to apply the same Mainbody Positions, it causes one of my existing menu items to revert to a Mainbody Position default like this- Positions: 1; mb/sa. When I correct it, one of the other menu items will then revert, putting me into an endless loop.

      My params.ini file is writable. I cannot what version of Gantry is installed to determine whether updating is necessary. I'm on Joomla version 1.5.15.

      Thanks in advance for any help!

    • Thank you. I must have Gantry 2.0 installed because it does not show up in components, and there is no mention of it in the root CHANGELOG.php.

      hi again,

      it's not in root/changelog.php but in
      root/components/com_gantry/CHANGELOG.php

    • Yes, I DID look there first, but there is no such directory. So, I checked the root also, just to be sure. But there is definitely no root/components/com_gantry directory. Is this possible?

    • hi again,

      sorry, from your answer: "and there is no mention of it in the root CHANGELOG.php" i assumed you were looking at the joomla core changelog.php.

      if you don't have root/components/com_gantry, then your gantry version must be either 2.0 or 1.0.
      can you check your rt_dominion_j15/lib folder and tell me which files and folders are located there?

    • hi again,

      thanks for that, but i was asking for the contents of the /lib directory which you can see in your list.

    • Sorry... I overlooked that detail. :)
      The /lib directory includes: folder-Gantry and index.html. I opened the enclosed gantry.php files, and they are all version 2.0.4.

    • ok! :)

      so your version is gantry 2.0, we also had 2.5 and now 3.0 already, so an update would be great.

      please do not forget to take a backup of your site, then follow the instructions given here.
      it describes the update from 2.0 to 2.5, but from 2.0 to 3.0 should be the same.
      www.rockettheme.com/forum/index.php?f=33..._v=viewtopic#p473086
      paying attention to the details is important. :)

      to understand the file structure better i also highly recommend that you install a brandnew dominion rocketlauncher in a subdirectory or on a test site, so you can compare the folders to your other install. if you dont have a valid membership, you can download the gantry rocketlauncher instead of the dominion rocketlauncher.

      hope this helps, kat :)
