Menubar 4.7

February 22nd, 2010 andrea 79 comments

Menubar 4.7 improves the PageTree and CategoryTree item types, adding the Exclude and the Headings multiselect fields.

The Exclude field lets you specify which pages or categories, if any, you wish to exclude from the generated menu tree.

The Headings field lets you specify which pages or categories, if any, you wish to display like headings, making them non clickable.

These two new fields, together with the Depth field introduced in Menubar 4.6, should offer you greater flexibility in building page and category menus.

As usual, you can find the Menubar documentation and download links in the main menu of this site. Thank you for your interest in Menubar!

Moving!

February 14th, 2010 andrea No comments

Update: the site move is completed, please update your bookmarks and your feeds! Should you find any problem with this move, please report it in the comments. Thank you!

—————————————
For almost five years I’ve maintained my other site, dontdream.it, in both English and Italian. I’ve never been completely comfortable with that arrangement, and I’m now convinced that a single language site is the way to go. So I’m going to move the English part of dontdream.it to BlogsWeek.com, which is in English only.

The plan is to close the comments on dontdream.it, move the English posts to BlogsWeek.com, reopen the comments here, then remove the English part on dontdream.it. At the end of the process, dontdream.it will be in Italian only, and BlogsWeek.com will continue to be in English only. I hope that you’ll be happy with the final result, and that you’ll update your bookmarks.

Thank you for your patience!

[Updated for the CSSmb_46 template]

CSS Menu Builder is an amazing website that offers a free online tool to build your CSS menus.

You can choose among a number of different backgrounds and menu images, and you can select colors and gradients for the inactive, hover and active status of your menu items.

With this information the online tool generates a stylesheet and a single .png image, packs both files in a convenient .zip archive and lets you quickly download it.

Interesting, isn’t it? And now you can apply a CSS Menu Builder style to Menubar, using the CSSmb_46 Menubar template. Let’s see how to do it. Read more…
