myMenus support for themes

[liomj]

Hi

Really nice work with xoops 2.5.11 so far

i would like to propose to add mymenus support in xoops core theme for easy menu creation

some theme examples with mymenus support
https://github.com/insraq/old-xoops-premium-themes/tree/master/InsApp
https://github.com/insraq/old-xoops-premium-themes/tree/master/InsLight
https://github.com/liomj/gentelella
https://github.com/liomj/sbadmin

Example
put all the menu files inside the menu folder \themes\xswatch4\menu
Activate the My menu Block
In the block settings, use the following:
a. Use skin from theme —> Yes
b. Display Method —> Assign to template
c. Unique ID —> xswatch4

then we can use <{$xoops_menu_xswatch4}> in theme something like
<{if $xoops_menu_xswatch4}>
<{$xoops_menu_xswatch4}>
<{else}>
xswatch4 default menu
<{/if}>

by the way i tested with an old version of mymenu 1.3 and xoops 2.5.11 beta 2

...the option use skin from theme is not working properly somehow in my installation using latest mymenus and latest core from github

a multilevel menu that i play around based on this example https://bootsnipp.com/snippets/35p8X

i use font awesome icon instead of image <{if $menu.image}><i class="<{$menu.image}>"></i><{/if}>

i attached the menu here if anyone of you would like to improve or edit it
menu.zip
upload the menu folder to \themes\xswatch4\

Hi,
Sorry if I dont understand,
but with xswatch4, there is Bootstrap 4 included,
So u can use easily the navbar function, nav

With that, you can change color, submenu...

Hi @alain01, this is just to help the user create menu list easily using the mymenu module and we can also use bootstrap class in mymenu skin

@liomj Is this still an issue? Can we close it?
