Hello there,

I am using the Metropolis (newest version) in Joomla 3.2.3. I notice that the menu is using mootools which makes my bxslider (jquery script for slideshows) to be unusable. As soon I disable mootools from site, the slideshows are working just fine, but the Menu stopos working as it should.

Knowing the fact that the Mootool library will be eventually removed from Joomla, shouldnt be usefull to use something like bootstrap or even jquery for the Menu?

I try the Jquery easy plugin hoping that it will help me out, but unfortunately it didnt. I also noticed that the problem is occure when I am using Chrome, Opera and Explorer (all in newest versions). In Firefox I have problem only if I make a soft refresh (F5). If I do a hard refresh (CTRL+F5) everything is fine. I check it in different computers, all the same problem.

The module that I am using with bxslider is the Phoca Gallery Slideshow bxSlider .

I hope for a solution soon, because the site is nearly to get online!! :)

Hello

May I suggest sending temporary administration access to your Joomla installation to info@joomla51.com and we will examine this issue further. For our reference please paste a link to this post in your email.

We do indeed plan on moving our dropdown menu away from Mootools however we have been waiting for Joomla 2.5 usage to fade a bit so we no longer have to support it.

Thank you

Your slideshow and dropdown should be now working correctly.

We amended the issue by replacing the following at the top of your templates index.php (../templates/j51_metropolis/index.php)...


JHtml::_('behavior.framework', true);


With...



JHtml::_('behavior.framework', true);

JHtml::_('jquery.framework', false);

I dont know what is the problem then. The slideshow keeps "crashing" in every browser I test it (Opera, Chrome, IE, Firefox). I reset all the caches of all the above browsers and the problem insists...

I think I should try and replace the mootool menu with something else... Its an obselete library anyway for Joomla...

Hello

I notice we are having the issue with IE.

I am going to look in to creating a CSS3 version of the dropdown menu. All going well I should have an update for you in a few hours. Note that due to some limitations on CSS3 this update won't have the exact same animation but will hopefully be just as 'stylish' :)

Hello

The template has been updated with a CSS3 dropdown menu. To update download the latest version of the template and install the template install file via your Extensions Manager.

That was fast and it is WORKING!!!! :) The dropdown effect it is also perfect! :)

Just a minor thing. In responsive.css in line 11 you should change the width from 95% to 100% because the hornav bar is getting smaller than the rest content when you change the width of the browser.

Great! :)

And thank you for bringing that issue to our attention. If you wish to continue to use the 95% width replace the following in the top of your templates responsive.css..


.wrapper960, #header_items, #header, #logo {width:95% !important;}

#logo {width: 97.5% !important;}


With...


.wrapper960 {width:95% !important;}

#header_items, #header {width: 100% !important;}

#logo {width: 97.5% !important;}
