main nav and internationalization

Permalink Browser Info Environment October 30, 2013 at 4:31 PM

Hi Looking for a bit of help on this issue.

I've installed the internationalization add on for my site. each language is at the second level of the site map. So I need the main drop down menu to start at the second level. Is there anyway I can do this with the featurist main nav?
Thanks!

Sorry for the delayed response. The best way will be to change out the hardcoded autonav template in the theme and replace it with an area you can add an autonav block to and set according to your needs. You will need to change a couple of lines in the header.php file (located at theme_featurist/themes/featurist/elements/header.php) to do this.
Replace this:

<?php
$bt = BlockType::getByHandle('autonav');
$bt->controller->displayPages = 'top';
$bt->controller->orderBy = 'display_asc';                    
$bt->controller->displaySubPages = 'all'; 
$bt->controller->displaySubPageLevels = 'custom';
$bt->controller->displaySubPageLevelsNum = '1';                   
$bt->render('templates/featurist_main_nav');
?>

With this:

<?php 
$a = new Area('Header Nav');
$a->display($c);
?>

Then simply add an Autonav block to that new Header Nav area and configure accordingly. Then make sure you use the Featurist Main Nav custom template.

hallelujah! worked like a charm!

I'm a designer not too strong in php. So I would have raked my brain on this for many hours!

Your help was very much appreciated!

What about the featurist slideshow. I also need it in two languages for internalization.
I've tried creating a new page type home_fr, copy of the home.php .
but what code would I replace or use so that I can use the slideshow as a block content.

Thanks!

Yeah, you really can't easily modify it to be a block. But in your home_fr.php file look for this code:

$slideshowName = 'Slideshow';

And change it to this:

$slideshowName = 'Slideshow FR';

Then just make a new stack called Slideshow FR and add your content there.
