How to move page menu bar to footer?
It's a great theme, I'm enjoying getting to know it. One question: I would like to move the page menu bar from the header to the footer. I tried putting %pages% or %pages in the footer content, but all I got was % pages in the footer? Is that possible? How do you do that?
Thanks a bunch |
edit bfa_footer.php and add the following after line 14 (global $bfa_ata;)
HTML Code:
// Page Menu Bar |
white color text gone
your suggestion worked fine on my site except the letters in the menu bar are no longer white as they are in the top menu bar but rather red.

you have made several changes to the footer style and that is causing the difference. |
Juggledad,
Thanks for the code. It works! First time I missed the bottom line and screwed up my whole site. Had to delete the theme and reinstall it to get it to open up. But, I figured it out! Are the options for page menu supposed to control the page menu in the footer? The "home link in menu bar" option works, but the border option and the colors, don't. Also the text in the footer is centered, except for the page menu, it's at the left. Thanks again for your help. This forum is awesome. Jim Morris |
footer colors
The menu bar takes on the colors of the footer styling. If anyone figures out how to override those style settings just for the menu bar, please post that here.
Thanks |
In Atahualpa 333 they do, what version are you using?

Juggledad,
I'm using 3.4.1 Jim |

in a new install of 3.4.2 it works fine, style changes effect both. You must have other code/plugins that also effect the footer and are causing a conflict. what's your url |
Juggledad,
Thanks for looking at this. I had 3.4 installed, so I installed 342, to see if that made a difference. It didn't. The "Home link in Page Menu Bar" works. The "Sorting order of Page Menu Bar" works. I can't get "Border around all menu items" to work I haven't had any luck with colors I can't get it to center. The drop down menu goes off the bottom of the page, can that be changed to "drop up"? Take Care, Jim |
I've just tied this again and in a plain install, the changes to the menubar show up in both the header menu bar and this new one in the footer.
It is possible that you have 'other' things in the footer - google analytical code, but in my case the footer styling does not effect this menu in the footer. As this is a hack, and the code that creates the menubar is designed to do 'drow down' menu's it won't be an option to do drop up menu's (unless Flynn reads this and thinks this is a good idea and puts the code in place) |
I do have google analyticator installed. I will shut it off and see if that makes a difference. But, that's about it. It's a fresh install yesterday. I've got an experienced Wordpress person helping me out, today, she will probably see something that I don't. OK, thanks a bunch for your help.

I agree dropping up sure would be nice. I have the menu bar in the header and the footer to help users who don't want to scroll back to the top so that they can select a different menu option.
It would be great to have an option where the bottom menu unfolds upwards (drop up), while the top menu continues to drop-down. Great theme btw so I donated to bfa today. |
Sorry to bump this post, but could this hack do what I want to do in this post:
http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthr...9577#post39577 Can I change some code so that the menu variable will be the ones from the menu2 instead of menu1? Thanks in advance! |

you could always use the 'exec php' plugin and then add a 'new widget area' to your page and put the 'custom menu' widget into the widget area. |
Thanks for the quick reply.
Sadly it's not possible to split the page, and the data is not just static text. I already thought about the suggestion with the custom menu, but the menu has to look exactly the same as the menu in the header. |
so use the same custom menu in the header
|
I tried this in atahualpa 3.7.11 and WP 4.0 and it doesn't seem to work any longer... Too bad, that was exactly what I was looking for.
I will keep on digging. |
You could put a dynamic widget area in the footer, create a custom menu, add the custom menu widget to the dynamic widget area and style it with css.
It might even be possible to add the code above to a text widget and use the 'exec PHP' plugin to run it. Why are you still on 3.7.11? Current version is 3.7.18. |
