hello

have several ideas and issues regarding mcp

first of all: mcp is an really excellent tool! ive been looking
for that kind of menu-tool for a long time.

with 100% fullwidth menu, all columns should be the same width
ex: 8 cols = fullwidth/8 or 1000px/8
at the moment i get totally different widths due to the lenght of text of menu items
doesnt look nice
if text of menu item is longer than width of column, it should break to next line

is it possible to just replace default menu of theme i use.
for ex: i use shopper-theme, menu is in banner centered and very narrow.
but mcp ist placed below and needs full width of site with default mcp css.
so would it be possible to use default navigation and default style,
but use mcp just to generate the menu without any style ?

in past i generated categories and built some redirects for new menu items. works fine, but redirects are very confusing and inconvenient.
maybe just use mcp to generate the redirects i need for menu ?
so it would work fine with themes default menu style and placement.
using mcp as an excellent tool just for generating menu-items for each theme.
hope u can understand what i mean ?

if i set “developer-mode” to “no” … there is no menu displayed anymore in frontend. if i set back to “yes” it works fine again. can u help me with this ?

if i add a custom css class to one menu item and add the class in menu-creator-pro.css with “!important” … doesnt work anyway. what am i doing wrong ? unfortunately http://www.menucreatorpro.com/wiki/ is not available today

mobile:
if i have a menu item that is also a link and also a first level-item for sub-menu and i click on arrow beside top-item … it opens up linked site at once instead of opening sub-menu. can i change this ?

thank u so much!

Thank you for your suggestion.
Regarding for your questions, please find my answers below:

with 100% fullwidth menu, all columns should be the same width
We would like width of sub categories are flexible and easy custom grid layout in sub menu items. The full width 100% are not fixed value, and sometime you want to setup menu like this
http://menucreatorpro.com/livedemo/#multi-columns . It is not full width menu item.
http://menucreatorpro.com/livedemo/#full-width Fullwidth but 4 columns in sub menu, each column will be 24.90%, so what about when you want to split to 5-6 column? Just need to add a Custom Class and a bit update on CSS, right?
For example Full width / 5 columns:

.grid-container100.custom_class .grid-column { width: 19.9% !important; }

1 2 3 4

.grid-container100.custom_class .grid-column {   width: 19.9% !important; }

is it possible to just replace default menu of theme i use.

I got your idea, replace the default menu without using MCP style. But how we know the HTML structure of your default menu of shopper theme? 🙂 MCP has basic style so you can easy custom.
developer-mode:no
For this option, MCP will auto generated your all group menu created into HTML format(keep all links and data). The static HTML files will be saved in /app/design/frontend/base/default/template/menupro/static/*
Just make sure you don’t copy the folder /app/design/frontend/base/default/template/menupro/ into your custom theme. It MUST always be same path as orginal path in module package.
Wrong setup:
/app/design/frontend/shopper-theme/default/template/menupro/
/app/design/frontend/shopper-theme/default/template/menupro/
if i add a custom css class to one menu item and add the class in menu-creator-pro.css with “!important” … doesnt work anyway
Because the CSS property will apply for which element has option IMPORTANT. If you add .custom_class{ ..!IMPORTANT } then it will work.
