Menus
Permalink
I haven't the skills to build a custom template but I want my menu to present it's self as it does in my style sheet. It's not complicated just simple vertical bars that change colour when the mouse is over them, usual stuff.
So my solution is to code the list in the default.php and drop in the url copied from a autonav block , which I'll remove once I'm happy.
Is this OK?

Already done that the Autonav doesn't take any notice:(
Sorted this! - I'm using Artisteer to create the template and style. So it was just a matter of replacing the class, ul and li references in the view file and all works fine. Any kind of menu I want now and it looks exactly as I designed it. I liking C5, not sure about the menu thing though; do I have to put an autonav block on every page?
No!
If you go to dashboard> Themes> then click the "page" tab at the top of the page. here you will be given a list of all your page types. If you click "edit" it will bring up your website page. Edit it and add the nav_block. after adding the nav_block click it again and choose the "add child" option at the bottom of the options menu. This will allow you to assign the menu to all your pages of that page type. Save it and your done. The auto_nav should be on all your pages now without having to do it individually for each page.
Again, Remo has a great tutorial for this:
