Single Menu Page with Bv and PHP

Re: Single Menu Page with Bv and PHP

Hey George

Just curious, is there a way to call up the menu if you've created a subfolder inside of your public_html folder with its own index page without having to publish the menu in that subfolder??



Cheers

Unless something is published online, there is no access/associations attributed to it, and thus would be dysfunctional altogether.

Depends on the type of menu. If it is a button (images) based menu, then it is not possible as the images will not be found. If instead it is a pure CSS menu or a text menu or a self contained (no external js files) Javascript menu, then there is no issue.

If it is a images (buttons) based menu, it is still possible, using a path statement or absolute URLS for the buttons, but this is far more complicated than a simple "Publish" of the menu in the subfolder.

Of course, you will need to set the correct path to the menu that is published in the main folder, like:

<?php
include "../menu.html";
?>

instead of simply

include "menu.php";

Hi George

I'm trying to do this.

I had to add a folder in my public_html for this software to work, as mentioned though I had to publish my menu to the folder.

My menu is text not images.

Is there an easier route other than having to publish the menu to the folder?

Cheers
Mike

Re: Single Menu Page with Bv and PHP

Honestly, with the software you use, just use a masterpage. If you need to update the site just publish Entire Site

Re: Single Menu Page with Bv and PHP

Thnx for the tip George, I tried that route, with same results, I still have to publish to the subfolders individually as everything gets published to the public_html folder.

As I have over 30 pages/folders to create, it would be a pain in the neck if I have to change the menu at a later time. Was hoping for an easier solution.

Yes, it is normal that it doesn't appear. You see, it has to be retreived from the server using php. When in preview, you are on computer level, where php doesn't work (unless one has Apache server / php environment installed on his computer, something that usually only programmers have)

Do i got to set all the pages to php where I want to put the menu in?
or just the index page?

The menu page can be either .html or .php

The pages that use this method to include the menu, MUST be .php

It's all "in there" if you look close enough!

Re: Single Menu Page with Bv and PHP

Dude this thread rules! I was stressing a little because I had posted a text box for my 'Copyright 2010' at the bottom of each page...well, we're in 2011 now and in less than 6 months we'll be in 2012...and my site has well over 100 pages. Of course I'm gonna have to change each page once to place the initial php (html box) but I'll only have to do this once! Thanks!
