How do I add an item to Finder's sidebar?

Any joomla experts out there?

  • I am new to Joomla 1.5 and have placed my Main Menu at the top instead of the left. I would like to format the menu but can't seem to find the class .menu or _menu in template.css. Does anyone where I can find the css code for this menu? Also, I would like to have a large image that stretches across the page (ie 900 px) and have it change with each menu item. Underneath the image is where I want to have a left sidebar. Right now, the left sidebar stretches from just below the header to the bottom of the page. Basically, I want to cut off the top half of the left sidebar so I can fit an image across the site. Does anyone know how to do this? Thank you. Forgot to add that I am using rhuk_milkyway template.

  • Answer:

    What I'd do would be grab Notepad++ (free version) and check the page source of your site. Then find the class descriptor for your menu and using Notepadd++ do a "Find in Files" search with the descriptor (ie. <li class="Menu_Descriptor"> Menu Link </a>). The search results should let you know where the CSS style is in the relevant CSS file. As for changing the image, you are looking at using javascipt to change the image for you. Not super difficult BUT be careful that you setup your divs properly not to disrupt the module framework on your site.
