Change top level of superfish horizontal menu

[ccbangler]

I'm trying to edit the superfish horizontal menu so that the top level are:

Products | some link | some other link | etc

 

I just want the Products to be filled with categories.

 

I just cant get the menu to write out properly to work with the menu, and I know I can't be the first one to want to use it this way! I tried searching with no luck in the forums.

 

Any help would be great thanks!

There is a Superfish menu in the Header Footer Contents Addon. I also have some modules for that addon that do the same thing. I'll give you the modules if you want to go that route. Either way should give you a working horizontal menu.

I assume you are using this contribution: http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/7541

 

if so find this:

// Close off nested lists
   for ($nest = 0; $nest <= $GLOBALS['this_level']; $nest++) {
    $output .= '</ul>'; 
 }

 

change to this:

// Close off nested lists
   for ($nest = 1; $nest <= $GLOBALS['this_level']; $nest++) {

    //close subcategory
    $output .= '</ul></li>';

    //extra links
    $output .='	 
	  <li><a href=" '.tep_href_link('reviews.php', '', 'NONSSL').'" >Reviews</a></li>
	  <li><a href=" '.tep_href_link('articles.php/acne-t-2', '', 'NONSSL').'" >Learn More</a></li>
	  <li><a href=" '.tep_href_link('faq.php', '', 'NONSSL').'" >Faqs</a></li>	 
	  ';

    // close list
    $output .='</ul>'; 
 }

That worked, I could of sworn I tried that previously because I think it was in another post and it didn't work!

 

Thanks, much appreciated!

Thank you, this helped a lot, I would never have caught you have to change to $nest = 1 instead of $nest = 0

 

Slight change I had to make adding the class name to make it display the same as the others and not off to the side

 

    for ($nest = 1; $nest <= $GLOBALS['this_level']; $nest++) {

 

//if you need extra links uncomment out the lines below

$output .= '</ul></li>';

$output .=' 

<li class="current_0"><a href="products_new.php" class="current sf-with-ul">NEW</a></li>

<li class="current_0"><a href="specials.php" class="current sf-with-ul">Sale</a></li>

';

 

        $output .= '</ul>';
