Is it possible to limit the number of sublevels shown by rokmoomenu?
I have a menu in Joomla with 4 sublevels, but I want rokmoomenu to only show the first two ones, keeping the structure of my joomla menu intact.
Thank you very much!

Well, finally I found the answer. Yes, it is possible to limit the number of sublevels shown by rokmoomenu.
You only have to include the startLevel and endLevel parameters before rendering mainmenu module in rt_utils.php file this way:
19 elseif ($mtype=="moomenu" or $mtype=="suckerfish") :
20 //$module->params = "menutype=$menu_name\nshowAllChildren=1\nclass_sfx=top";
21 $module->params = "menutype=$menu_name\nshowAllChildren=1\nstartLevel=0\nendLevel=2\nclass_sfx=top";
22 $topnav = $renderer->render( $module, $options );
23 endif;
Line 20 is the original one. Line 21 is a new one I've created to include startLevel and endLevel parameters.

I've seen this request before but I don't understand the reasoning behind it.
If you don't want to show the menu items, why have them in the first place?
If you want them to show in a split menu fashion, why not just make a new menu for that part and have it show on the certain assigned main menu item pages that you need it for?

My website has many sections, each one having many categories in turn. This result in a menu with too many levels and lots of links.
I want to avoid this behavior, and I also want to keep the structure of my joomla menu intact because I use it to show all menu options in a left menu that changes from section to section.
Having several joomla menus would result in a higher level of complexity and extra difficulty in managing the joomla installation.
This way I only have one joomla menu with all items I need, and at the same time I have less unnecessary links in each page of my website.
Now the change is done, you can view the result here: http://www.gretur.com , with an unique joomla mainmenu, an unique menu module in the left, that is the same module wichever section or category you are, and a rokmoomenu limited in the number of sublevels it can show.
