Hi

I never saw this myself ( from what I see here ddr is also available as a module?

the simplest way to use the menu is by copying the Mega2DNN folder to your skin folder example portals/_default/skins/yourskin

and then put this in the ascx skin

<ddr:menu runat="server" id="Mega2DNN" menustyle="Mega2DNN"/>

i install the menu but i have a problem and a question;
lets first ask question: in"DDRMenu user guide" is written

 "How to choose which pages to show in a menu

If you don't want to show all the pages in your menu, you have a few options available to you. The most common way is to use the NodeSelector option. Use:

NodeSelector="RootOnly" to show only the root level menu items (alias for *,0,0)
NodeSelector="RootChildren" to show all the children of the root menu item that is the parent of the current page (alias for +0)
NodeSelector="CurrentChildren" to show the children of the current page (alias for .)
NodeSelector="pageID" to show the children of a specific page
NodeSelector="{root},{skip},{depth}" (where {skip} and {depth} may be omitted). {root} is * for the root, . or 0 for the current page, -n for n levels above the current page, +n for n levels down from the root menu towards the current page, PageID to select a particular page by ID or PageName to select a particular page by name. {skip} if provided skips that number of levels (e.g. 0 shows the selected page, 1 shows its children). {depth} if provided specifies the number of levels deep to go (e.g. 0 for just the current level, 1 to include immediate children).


You can also use the IncludeNodes and ExcludeNodes options. These are generally used in DNN 4 and 5 to create separate menus for Admin and Host. Use a comma separated list of page names, IDs or roles to include in the menu (top level only), e.g. IncludeNodes="Admin,Host" or ExcludeNodes="321,123". Wrap roles in [], e.g. [All users] shows only those pages visible to all users.


In DotNetNuke 6, you can specify IncludeHidden="true" to include hidden pages in the menu structure. This can be useful for creating separate menus to show site sections that are hidden from the main menu.""


now i want to add NodeSelector="RootChildren" but I do not know where to add this code and above codes but i thing these should be added to <ddr ...>

my problem: when i move the mouse over the menu items, the sub menus Behind the skin elements are
Please help to solve the problem
