Remove Top/Main Menu

zentoolsIf you use Zentools please post a review at the Joomla! Extensions Directory.

Is there a way to remove the menu from the top bar? I would just like to have a logo in the black bar at the top centered and nothing else. Then I can add additional content if necessary under the Home/Blog Categories section? I'm only going to have 2 finished sections - home page, and then 1 page of downloads, so no need for extra nav.
Thanks!

Hi

First you need to create a new layout out file by cloning the layout in the layout tab

Once cloned and given a unique layout name you need to open up the \templates\novus\local\tpls

Here should be the named layout file you created

Also open up the templates\novus\tpls\blocks\

and open logo.php and remove this line

<?php $this->loadBlock ('off-canvas') ?>

Then save as and chose a new file name and save in the same folder

With the new layout file you created change

<?php $this->loadBlock ('logo');?>

to whatever you called your new logo file in my case when I tested it was

<?php $this->loadBlock ('logo-nomenu');?>

You need to load the new layout in all template styles :)

This process should protect the new template from updates
