Menu Section template

Hi @lpstick,

Can you post a link to the menu on your site? I’m not sure I understand the problem you’re having and seeing it in action should help.

Please look at: https://test.elgauchocagliari.com/index.php/menu/il-menu/
and then at: https://test.elgauchocagliari.com/index.php/fdm-menu-section/antipasti/
You’ll note the differetnt template used for menu sections; I’ll have the items in menu sections pages listed as in menu.

Thanks in advance,
Michele

Hi @lpstick,

Ah, I understand. You’re using the taxonomy archive for a menu section. Unfortunately, these taxonomy archive pages are entirely defined by your theme. So unless your theme has deliberately styled the taxonomy archive template to look like you want, you won’t be able to use them.

Instead, I usually encourage people to make a separate menu and assign just the section that they want. They can then use the menu shortcode to print that section in a page, which most themes style in a way that’s more appropriate for menus.

Thank’s a lot, I’ll try; anyway your plugin is a great job!

One more info, please: Is’t possible to have a menu on 2 columns with the same menu section on the 2 columns?

Hi @lpstick,

You can do something like this with a little bit of CSS.

.fdm-item {
    float: left;
    width: 50%;
}

But you’ll probably find that you need to make a lot of adjustments in how things line up. Instead, you might find the following tutorial I wrote up on how to create complex menu layouts:
