hallo,
I have two question about dnnmenu. I have this mainMenu, when I hover the items it will show me all the submenu items. I would like to avoid this. I know I could untick the property "include in menu" for every submenuitems, so they wouldn't be shown in the submenu and the submenu would disappear. But the problem is that I need the "include in the menu" option to be true because I will show the subitems in another instance of DNNmenu. So I found this half solution: in the ascx file I set this two properties of the dnnmenu like this:


<dnn:Menu id="dnnAdminMenu" runat="server"
 [...]
  CssContainerSub="AdminMenu_Hide"
  MouseOutHideDelay = "1"
[...]
  />

and then I a css file I write:

.adminMenu_hide {
display:none;
}

This would work but it causes the menu to work unproperly in IE7. My question is: is there a better way to achieve the result?

Another question concerning the DNNmenu: has anyone found out if it is possible to force wrapping the menu when it is horizontal oriented?

thanks for helping

You can review this document.

Specifically using ExpandDepth with PopulateNodesFromClient=false.

I tried this with ExpandDepth=1 to show the root items only (I used a second Menu to show the corresponding child items), and it worked, but unfortunately for the Admin and Host menu items as well, so that I couldn't access the Admin and Host pages any more. Is there a way to keep the Admin/Host items visible?

I think this is the behaviour of any menu system that if the child of host and admin will be unreachable, since the admin and host tabs are disabled tabs.

I think the core could do with a change where these two tabs are not disabled. they should go to a page that shows all the admin links or the host links in a simple list.

Thanks, Salar, you're probably right. But I'm still hoping that there's a menu with an option to exclude the Admin/Host items, or to show these items ONLY. So you could configure them differently. Would be a nice-to-have feature!

[EDIT:]
Shortly after I wrote this, I remembered the Telerik Panelbar menu, which I had used some months ago, and it really has two EnableUserMenus and EnableAdminMenus attributes, which do the job!
