[SOLVED] Menu Image and Contact Form
 
Hi there,

First off thanks for making this Montezuma template free it is amazing.
I've been browsing through the forum and see lots of people have what i believe to be custom images for their menu...

Where can I get those icons? do i need to make them in PSD? and how do i insert them there? As is my site has two pages http://hammyenterprise.com/Bushwalking
Then also other sites have a contact form is that just a good old fashioned html form? or is it a widget?

Thanks.

There are 100 included icons. The instructions for using them is laid out in the Using Menu Icons section of the theme options. It also describes how to create your own.

Contact forms are generally created with a plugin. The JetPack plugin that is usually installed with WordPress has a forms component as well.

I believe i have done this correctly.
Code:

#menu1 .about > a > i { background-position: 0px 0px; }
#menu1 .page-news > a > i { background-position: 0px -888px; }
#menu1 .sample-page > a > i { background-position: 0px -1824px; }
#menu1 .about:hover > a > i, #menu1 .about.active > a > i { background-position: -24px 0px; }
#menu1 .page-news:hover > a > i, #menu1 .page-news.active > a > i { background-position: -24px -24px; }
#menu1 .sample-page:hover > a > i, #menu1 .sample-page.active > a > i { background-position: -24px -48px; }

This i have inserted onto menus_menu1.css yet when i refresh my page (ctrl f5) the icons have not been updated, what is it i am doing wrong?

Thanks.

The class names are incorrect I beleive they should be '#menu1 .page-about...' etc
Take a look at the source of a page.

That worked perfectly :) Thanks, however now when i am on the page the image stays blue and does not resort back to being grey... what did i do wrong now :(

Also I have added the contact form :D but the page can only be gotten to from the homepage, when i am on any of the other pages the contact us page doesnt appear.

do you mean teh 'Contact Us' page? It shows the form for me when ever look.

One thing you should NEVER do is make changes to a site while a caching plugin is active...at least not if you want to see the changes right away.

Maybe i should have been more clear :(
when i go to http://hammyenterprise.com/Bushwalking/page-news/ i can not see the contact us page, how do i make it appear?

Thanks for putting up with me :)

Edit:
All the links in the menu show in firefox but not chrome :s

Shut off your caching plugin
