    Hi

    Only one small problem, the drop down menus still appear to let the test/links/images in the page show through the menu. In other words the menu drops behind text links and images.

    Can we please make it so that the drop down menus are placed on top of everything else on the page?

    Regards

    That is a problem with the integration with your theme. It is not possible to cater for all coding possibilities unfortunately.

    Hi

    Yes, that appears to be the case.

    Thanks

    If you post a link to your site I’m happy to figure out the specific problem you may be having at the moment.

    Attached is a new version of the plugin.

    Hi Ryan

    The sites homepage is: http://networkofcoaches.com[/url:2r9vfy1d%5D

    However I have moved down and across widgets which would show this problem although as soon as the site is busy it would show up.

    You can see the problem on this page:

    Many Thanks
    Regards

    P.S. This is a free membership site for coaches and athletes, so anyone can signup however it is still in soft launch.

    Hello! You are a star <img decoding=” title=”Smiley” /> Many thanks indeed… please send my gratitude to the developer! Havn’t installed yet, but shall do in a moment… I will post and tell you if everythings fine on my install..

    Many thanks
    Dan

    Update: I have installed it, however im getting various php burps in the admin section… I’ve had to resort to using the ‘second menu contents’ because in the admin page for ‘Menu Contents’ every option to do with ‘Main menu contents’ has given the error:

    [code:24csn2k9]Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #2 is not an array in /var/www/funnywonders/wp-content/plugins/multi-level-navigation-plugin/admin_page.php on line 284

    Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /var/www/funnywonders/wp-content/plugins/multi-level-navigation-plugin/admin_page.php on line 288[/code:24csn2k9]

    Is this a problem my end, or a problem with the plugin?

    Cheers

    Hi,
    This is probably a problem with the plugin. I’m too busy to deal with this today, but I’ll try to take a look tomorrow evening.

    The plugin works great for me and every update feature works, the only problem which may be my theme I am told is that the drop downs fall behind links and images on the page. Very strange indeed.

    Check it out at http://networkofcoaches.com

    I have managed to modify the CSS nicely and it fits in well with the site now.

    Great work, Ryan

    I’ll take a look and see if I can figure out what is causing that problem.

    The first thing I can see is that you have UL tags wrapped around the menu like this:
    [code:1f17go7k]<ul id="nav">
    <?php pixopoint_menu(); ?>
    </ul>
    [/code:1f17go7k]

    Whereas you just need this:
    [code:1f17go7k]
    <?php pixopoint_menu(); ?>
    [/code:1f17go7k]

    The unordered list will potentially cause problems otherwise.

    Your problem seems to be caused by the following code in your [url=http://networkofcoaches.com/wp-content/themes/buddypress-home/css/base.css’base.css file[/url]
    [code:l5x3ymz4]* a { position:relative }[/code:l5x3ymz4]

    If you remove that your problem will be fixed. I don’t recommend using star selectors on links like that or it will likely cause problems with other HTML/CSS you attempt to integrate into your site.

    Hey Ryan

    The:
    "Your problem seems to be caused by the following code in your
    Code: [Select]
    * a { position:relative }
    If you remove that your problem will be fixed. I don’t recommend using star selectors on links like that or it will likely cause problems with other HTML/CSS you attempt to integrate into your site."

    Solved my problem. The menu now drops down on top of anything else on the page.

    You are a life saver.

    Thanks

    Not yet sorry, I have too much on the boil at the moment. I may get to it on the weekend.

    Attached is another new version of the plugin. This version adds two major new features:

    [b:1w5e760f]Categories with child posts[/b:1w5e760f]
    This has been a long requested feature. You can now choose the ‘Categories with child posts’ option to have a menu showing your categories and it will display the posts for those categories in the dropdowns. This upgrade was performed for one of our premium support members.

    [b:1w5e760f]PHP in the custom code boxes[/b:1w5e760f]
    This particular options is not available by default. I don’t like allowing PHP code to be executed by entering it into the WordPress admin panel. This is most likely 100% safe to use (I intend to use it myself), but there is always potential for security holes when features like this are added to software. So to activate this option you will need to unzip the mln_advanced.zip file and copy those files into the main plugin folder. Those files actually contain another plugin called ‘Multi-level Navigation Plugin – Advanced Addon’ which can be activated from the plugins area in your WordPres admin panel. Once activated, you will be able to use [code:1w5e760f][php][/php][/code:1w5e760f] tags in the custom code boxes. Note, you can not use <?php tags, you must use the square brackets. So something like

    wp_list_pages();

    would display a list of your latest WordPress pages. This feature is not officially supported. If you require support for it or want to know how to use it then you will need to sign up for premium support (https://geek.hellyer.kiwi/premium_support/).

    [i:1w5e760f]Note: Although this is a non-support featured we are still keen to hear any bug reports you may have. We do still want it to work![/i:1w5e760f]
