Tip: (Ning 2.0 and 3.0) How to add multiple custom navigation menus in Ning?

[Bernard Lama]

How to add multiple custom navigation menus in Ning?
Follow the steps and instructions:

Step 1: Copy and paste the below code into custom code in Ning 2.0 and custom code (End of Page Code) in ning 3.0. If you want to customize (you should have a basic knowledge of css) the menu please download the custom_menu.css file and upload it into your own server after editing it.

<!--YOU CAN EDIT THIS CODE-->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/1048210?profile=original" />

<!--DO NOT EDIT THIS CODE-->
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/1048175?profile=original">
</script>

 

Step 2: Download the html.txt file and save it on the desktop. After downloading it you can edit the html.txt file but you should have a basic knowledge of html.

Now add AD BOX BELOW HEADER> switch to html mode> copy the code from html.txt file> and paste the code into ad box. You are done.

Now the original navigation bar is not required. You can hide it using the following code in custom css via design studio in ning 3.0 and advanced css in ning 2.0.

/****** hide menu bar in ning 3.0 ****/

.navbar {
display: none;
}

/**** hide menu bar in ning 2.0***/

#xg_navigation {
display: none;
}

Hey Bernard, nice tip. We sometimes get questions about adding sub-subtabs, sub-sub-subtabs, and so on, and this looks like it will be a big help!

nice tip Bernard.... looks very promising for 2.0 networks but doesn't seem to adapt to screens in a responsive manner.. is this something you are working on presently?

[Bernard Lama]

Well Jfarrow, this tip is based on ning .2.0. the multiple  menu has such a long menu when we show vertical menu bar. So I thought this is not a good idea to make it responsive. Perhaps, I'm thinking of making it responsive later on. If you have a better idea please feel free to suggest us. Thank you Jafarrow, you are awesome.

no, thank you!  I like where you are going with this, just thought it might not be ready for 3.0 yet... i'll see what I can do to make it responsive..

great tip... wish i had this a year ago!
