Hello,

same problem here.

[vekia]

it's not possible to share "universal" solution in this case,

it's because categories ID numbers are different for each shop.

 

if we want to remove these links (href="") we need to know ID of category and modify module php file.

sadly, this is the only one module where contents are generated inside the .php file - so we need to alter php file

 

there is also some workaround, to remove href="" param with jquery,

but in this case it will remove href from EACH first level menu item

I´m trying to change blocktopmenu.php, but no success

when I add # to a href" " it si not works

Can you help me with this, please? Thx

[vekia]

sure, can you show an example of code that you modified?

Hi,

I modify blocktopmenu.php from :

 

case 'CMS_CAT':

$category = new CMSCategory((int)$id, (int)$id_lang);

if (count($category))

{

$this->_menu .= '<li><a href="'.Tools::HtmlEntitiesUTF8($category->getLink()).'" title="'.$category->name.'">'.$category->name.'</a>';

$this->getCMSMenuItems($category->id);

$this->_menu .= '</li>'.PHP_EOL;

}

break;

 

 

TO:

 

case 'CMS_CAT':

$category = new CMSCategory((int)$id, (int)$id_lang);

if (count($category))

{

$this->_menu .= '<li><a href="#" title="'.$category->name.'">'.$category->name.'</a>';

$this->getCMSMenuItems($category->id);

$this->_menu .= '</li>'.PHP_EOL;

}

break;

 

On PS 1.6 and It looks to run OK.

 

Can you, please, confirm this is the right way ???

[vekia]

after modifications you regenerated module code with shop cache clear ?

mmmm I´m not sure, think not...but anyways, It´s looks like works fine!

so if it works fine now it was a cache related problem :-)
