copy existing menu layout to Buildr

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

Hi there,

I have a menu in a custom position. The layout comes from base3 + some customization. I installed Buildr on the same site as the site owner wants to slowly port it over.

When I now copy the module, publish it in a new custom position in Buildr the menu layout changes. This means it takes a different modul.php for Buildr which is not easily customized with CSS.

My question is: How can I copy the original layout, and add it as a module style in order to have the same menu layout in Buildr?

Thanks a lot

Hi

Can you add a link for the original layout?

Sure: www.laschoresch.org/chassidische-geschichten.html

here you have the original menu (it is also customized).

I do not have the new module on Buildr online at the moment, but can assign it again, if you need.

hmm with the menu on the new template are you loading bootstrap assets?

ok, checked it.

Seems the Bootstrap settings are not stored.

(I only get the message: Updating css for the base4 theme).

With Bootstrap its loading via the Design button on the left

Which opens the sidebar on the right - on the right of the sidebar select assets

In there you can select bootstrap options

Do you mean nothing is saving?

Thanks for the fast help :-)

Yes, it means that nothing is saving.

I only see a blue field telling that it saves CCS. I can only exit by going to assigment and then exit there.

Are you on a local or live host?

Do you see any error in the web browser console?

I am live. I do not see an error, will check.

To my best knowledge I disabled all components with security features (like sf404) as I know this issue from the past.

update:

I installed the latest version Buildr. Now the CSS to Less throws a number of 500 internal errors and says it has a problem with a variable in nav***.less.

I think memory and execution time are ok. In case would need help to change it via htaccess

Any idea?

Thanks

Hi there again,

Rob helped me to compile Bootstrap3.
I assigned it to the menu which had no immediate effect.
Is there a way to copy the existing layout to Buildr?

FYI: At the moment I reassigned the old template again, but in case can switch Buildr on.

Thanks and best regards
