How do you create an additional vertical menu style

Hi,

The page display is set in the admin part.

Thank you!

What? Can you please re-read my question. How do I have 2 vertical menus with 2 different styles? On the CMS side it's easy enough to made an additional vmenu, how do I STYLE IF DIFFERENT in Themler than the one I already have styled?

Hello Shawn,
you may create two different menus in Joomla admin back end and then locate then in two different modules.
Just in case: this article describes how to set up vertical menu in Joomla
http://answers.themler.com/articles/6643/how-to-create-vertical-menus-in-joomla

Two make one of modules look different you may set up one of modules to be displayed as Vertical Menu control and the menu as Block control.
Unfortunately there's no way to create two (or more) differently looked vertical menus on the same template.

Hello, I thought it was possible to have different styled vertical menus. I must find a way to change the text/link colors for different menus.

I use vertical menus on every Joomla site for the footer links and the footer is usually a different background color so the menu items need to be a different color.

What is the work around for this? Custom module suffix? Some other way? Can you please help me with this asap.

Thank you

Hi,

You can use module class suffix.

/* default state, visited */
.custom-suff .nav-pills > li[class*="bd-menuitem"] > a:link,
.custom-suff .nav-pills > li[class*="bd-menuitem"] > a:visited
{
color: blue!important;
}
/* active */
.custom-suff .nav-pills > li[class*="bd-menuitem"] > a.active,
.custom-suff .nav-pills > li[class*="bd-menuitem"].active > a
{
  color: red!important;
}
/* hover, focus */
.custom-suff .nav-pills > li[class*="bd-menuitem"] > a:hover,
.custom-suff .nav-pills > li[class*="bd-menuitem"] > a:focus
{
 color: green!important; 
}

To add custom style to exactly vmenu parent items add class parent to li element.

Thank you,
Olivia
