How do I edit a menu title?

Post by furbys » Thu Dec 06, 2007 4:33 pm

Hi all,

New to Joomla 1.5rc3 but really got going today and managed to get loads done with ease. Unit now.


I have a Menu Title that I am unable to edit. I went into the menu section and edited but it doesn't change the title. I'm obviously doingit in the wrong section, so which one os the right one? Thanks

It shows up as Key Concepts but I want it to be Useful Links

Code: Select all

<!-- BEGIN: LEFT COLUMN -->

      <div id="ja-col1">
<div class="moduletable_menu">
               <h3>Key Concepts</h3>
               <ul class="menu"><li class="item40">

These are your basic menus and not displayed in front-end.

A basic menu title is edited in the mainmenu module where this menu is assigned.

Are you saying it's not an editable thing in the Administrator management pages?

Or should it be in the Menu Item Manager: [mainmenu]? It doesn't appear in there so I guess not.

I can't find where the menu is assigned, should I just be able to edit the html?

Thanks

Administrator => Modules
In the list of modules that you may filter by choosing mod_mainmenu is a module with the title in question.
You just have to edit the title for that module.

I suggest you read the administration Manual for Joomla 1.0.x

Ah, brilliant, thanks! Will get reading through the manual as well. Downloaded the install manual and thought that was the only one available  :-[
