In Evolution 13, I was able to set up a side bar menu from ‘Template - Main Menu style’.

How do I do this in Evolution 14 please?

Hello Malcolm

You put a menu-object in the side-bar.

But it have to be a top-menu.

Else  - you can also put the menu object on every page. This way you can have a side bar menu for the level you want/specify.

Alternative you have to use some custom code like I have here on one of my testsites :

Sticky pagemenu : http://www.bramminginfo.dk/brm02/starten.html

Sticky buttons : http://www.bramminginfo.dk/brm02/side-26.html

Hello John

Sorry - but I am still confused.

Attached is the menu which I set up in Evolution 13 - now automatically converted when I upgraded from V13 to V14.

It appears from the attachment below that, on upgrade, Evolution 14 has converted the menu  into a backgroud image and has slightly corrupted the right hand side of each item on the menu.

I need to set it up again and can't figure out how to do this. Help please.

Hello John

Excellent. That is very close to what I want.

Please do let me know how you did it. Hopefully I will then be able to tweak it ever so slightly to replicate precisely what is currently on the website.

Many thanks.

You can just download the PDF.

I will advice you to make the header lower than the example, and the menu items also not so high - as you have many menu items.

If you make the sidebar a bit wider, you could have the menu in 2 columns in the sidebar.

Kind regards

John. I now understand how to fix my problem with the menu. I have deleted the menu image that was created automatically on upgrade from V13 to V14. Now just need need to fiddle around with some width settings to make sure menu fits. Many thanks for all your help. Much appreciated. Best regards. Malcolm
