AaronP Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Super annoying menu manager bug: I remove the all of the menus from the Menu manager (I'm using a custom navbar and don't want anything from IPS's menu manager there). So I delete both menus/their children menus. "Publish this menu". Then, I wake up the next morning, and the menu is back. Again, I have to go in and delete the menu. I also notice upon updating the Forum application it automatically adds the default menus even though I deleted them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin 7 Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Hello @AaronP; Try this: Delete your custom menu application Re-enable the default IPS Menu Manager feature Use the menu manager from IPS, and simply customize it to have all the same menu links, etc that you'd like No difference, same result, it's built in with IPS so it'd 100% supported, plus no bugs - at least not yet.

Rheddy Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 I'm willing to bet that he didn't try recaching his forum software or deleting his browser cache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy Several reasons I didn't do that: 1) The forum has custom CSS icons above each link, that are unique to each link, etc. 2) For whatever reason you can't set a specific forum link as a navbar links. So if I want "Home, Forum 1, Forum 2, Bookmarks" as my navbar I can't do that.

That's irrelevant regardless, as it has nothing to do with caches. There's no menu, so it adds itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take a look at my website menu bars for example, which I use Menu Manager - www.projectgaming.net/community Why not give it a try, other than the menu icons?

If wanting to remove the menu's then try using css ... in custom.css add: nav { display: none; } Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried that and it turned my links to look something like this if I remember right: http://mydomain.com/index.php/mydomain.com/index.php?=forumblah blah blah - so it was like appending a redirect onto my domain. I simply wanted it to be a clean url like "/pictures/ but it demanded I have an actual URL In the box. It also doesn't allow for custom CSS rules so therefor the icon issue is still present. I ended up removing all the "Navbar" related template calls in the template leaving just my custom navbar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
