Site Menu Modification

Hi,

I'm not sure if I have done this correctly, but here goes.  I am using the Superfish site menu and I wanted add an extra span for text below the main menu link text.  I created a copy of SiteMenu.ascx and the adapter class.  I added my code to the adapter class and read the text value from a resource file based on the menu item text.  I added my new menu control tag prefix to the web.config.  All went well until I tried to add it to layout.master, it seems that mojoBasePage is expecting a SiteMenu type.

2010-10-27 18:05:14,590 ERROR mojoPortal.Web.Global - 127.0.0.1-en-GB - /Default.aspx
System.Web.HttpParseException: The base class includes the field 'SiteMenu1', but its type (mojoPortal.Web.UI.FPANSiteMenu) is not compatible with the type of control (mojoPortal.Web.UI.SiteMenu).

I have not amended any source code, but I'm wondering if I have done this correctly?

Thanks,

Vince.

Re: Site Menu Modification

I couldn't seem to resolve this, so I changed CSSFriendlyAdapters.browser to point at my CustomMenuAdapterSuperfish.cs.  This is working, but the rendered menu is being overwritten with the standard menu by a double post-back.

Once I've resolved this, I'll be back.

Vince.
