BLOCKTOPMENU category buttons link to homepage

[MusikMachineMan]

Dear all,

i'm dealing with an issue while using the Blocktopmenu module.

 

Explainations :

i used to have lots of categories and no sub-cat,

most of all the categories were listed in the blocktopmenu with link to the good place and a useful name.

 

while there were quite lots of categories there were almost 3 lines in the menu, i noticed it would be more efficient by editing sub-categories.

 

I so did changes to make this better, and now have less categories in only 1 line which is great. :-)

and the sub cats do appear correctly when hovering over each button, but...

 

i see that each "top" category button links to the homepage of the website and not to the category page (while this works well for the sub category appearing) and i can't see where to fix this :-(

 

Does anybody would have an idea to solve this ?

 

I still have products listed in these categories and that do not enter in a sub,

i guess it could be possible to reach these category pages without passing by the listing in the footer

 

many many thanks by advance

regards

Go to the modules/blocktopmenu directory :

 

$menu variable will render into blocktopmenu.tpl file that is called by the blocktopmenu.php.

In the blocktopmenu.php make search for the makemenu() method that will generate topmenu for header.

 

$this->makeMenu();

Thank you very much Sandip Chandela,

i was already checking in this blocktopmenu.php but unfortunately i'm not that familiar with coding,

i was rather looking for a <a href and i must confess i don't know how to fix this $this->makeMenu(); stuff

could you tell me more about the way i must follow ?

 

cheers man

better to see blocktop menu that may have blank url.

See module listing from admin panel and then go to the blocktopmenu module. 

or else have you used any third party module for that functionality.?

 

can you share your url pls ?

i sent you the adress by pm.

i did not use other third party module for this

replace in blocktopmenu.php

$html = '';

        foreach ($categories as $key => $category) {
            if ($category['level_depth'] > 1) {

with:

$html = '';

        foreach ($categories as $key => $category) {
            if ($category['level_depth'] > 0) {
