Superfish - getting a little deeper
Permalink
Hi All,
I have experience o fusing superfish on joomla sites and installing it myself so I do know the CSS and setup etc to customise.
I have installed the superfish addon which is great although a little limiting as one cannot style the first and second children differently etc.
I have edited the view.php file now to remove the blanket background colour css call and the other specified codes so I can override with css. However I woudl love to be able to develop a menu system that looks as good as this:http://www.saelstrom.com/
They are using cufon and from the looks of it have installed superfish directly as opposed to using the plugin.
Can someone tell me how I would go about installing superfish like this so that I then had total control without the various css classes being grouped together like in the addon.
Re any requests - the addon is a great start but I think it could be developed to include lots more of the superfish features - if I knew how I would!
Thanks

AS far as getting icons like the menu you show for an example;
What I've done in the past is create a page attribute (page_icon) and then customize the view to grab the icon and display it in the menu.. it's pretty easy..
Optionifying everything in superfish as far as the possiblities are almost endless, I find that I'd rather style it using my global theme css.. But thats just me :)
