Multi-level Menu Plugin

[Zegnåt]

It sounds like the CMS doesn’t have a multi-level menu that a non-programmer can use and consequently can’t use the CMS unless you’re a programmer.

That’s because the CMS is not responsible for what your website looks like. What you want is not a CMS that can have a multi-level menu (GetSimple can) but a theme made to display a multi-level menu. I think there is only 1 theme that support a drop-down menu: abacus by PRAG.

The problem for me is that I can write a plugin to generate the raw code for a multi-level menu, but I can’t make it a drop-down. If I make it a drop-down style menu that works with the Default_Simple (the default theme that comes with GetSimple) it will not work with Cardinal (the second theme that comes with GetSimple). We have 39 topics in on the Themes board, if half of them are downloadable themes that gives us about 20 themes. There is no way I can make a plugin that works with all these themes.

Even worse, if I build the plugin to load a different style for each theme you might want to use your own theme or a theme that hasn’t been covered in the plugin yet. I think you can imagine what will happen: it will break.

Please let me know if you know a CMS that can output a drop-down menu no matter what theme you use, I would love to find a way to make my plugin work for non-coders.
