DynaMenu & STS 4.2

[monikart]

Incase anyone else is experiencing troubles with the Dynamenu working with STS 4.2, here is what i did:

 

opened: includes/modules/sts_inc/sts_user_code.php

 

added the following (there are instructions at the top on how to create boxes):

 

$sts->start_capture();

require(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'dm_categories.php');

$sts->stop_capture('dmbox', 'box');

 

(If you have a previous version of STS the sts_user_code.php will be located under includes/modules and you'll have to add the box with slightly different code)

 

Then I opened: includes/boxes/dm_categories.php

 

///////////I changed this://////////////////

 

// Initialize HTML and info_box class if displaying inside a box

if ($show_dmcats_as_box) {

echo '<tr><td>';

$info_box_contents = array();

$info_box_contents[] = array('text' => BOX_HEADING_CATEGORIES);

new infoBoxHeading($info_box_contents, true, false);

 

///////////To This://///////////////

 

// Initialize HTML and info_box class if displaying inside a box

if ($show_dmcats_as_box) {

echo '<tr><td>';

$info_box_contents = array();

new infoBoxHeading($info_box_contents, true, false);

 

 

Basically I wanted to remove the infoBox header. Maybe there is a better way but this worked for me. I am no PHP expert.

 

Lastly I added the box onto my STS Template pages.

 

Open your HTML page(s) and add

 

$dmbox

 

Where you want your menu to appear.

 

 

I hope this helped some. My menu can be seen at www.mysampleshop.com (it's a demo for my clients so you can test to your hearts content)

To be more specific, I had isues with the drop down feature working properly.
