Menu display

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

I have installed the Buildr quick package and made my default template style buildr - Background.
I want to use this but with a menu bar across the screen as used in most other templates, instead of just being a small box with three bars and the word more on the right.
What would the settings for this be please?

The background template is designed to be a little different so the menu is where the more is

It won't display in the menu position

What are planning to do with background - I'm just wondering if there might be a different option

Hi Paul, I was hoping to have a full screen slideshow picture with a logo and a menu going right across the screen just below the menu. Please have a look at:
www.themutsnuts.co.uk
Then from the more box choose home/background, then that will show what Iwas hoping for as the home page, but with a menu.
Once a menu item is chosen, then I want it to have a more conventional layout similar to:
www.lightline.org.uk/index.php/select-a-pilgrimage/uk-departures/holy-land
Hope that makes sense!

With the full page my first thought is that it wouldn't be very search friendly as a home page as no text to index by the search engine - has that been factored in?

Just to be clear do you want a menu on screen horizontal on all pages?

No it hasn't so I think it is best I go back to the drawing board for a re-think.

Thanks for the advice.
