Below are details on key components of the visionCMSTM:
Er; MEG,', ME!J
The Advanced Mega Menu is a fully customizable mega menu. Along with the options
to define how many levels of navigation and how many columns to use like standard
mega menus, the Advanced Mega Menu also allows users to add extra columns to the
mega menu and place widgets in these columns. Each main navigation item mega
menu is designed separately so that, for example, hovering over "About Us" would show
a different mega menu with different widgets than hovering over "What's New". By
default, all of the standard "Box" widgets can be added to the Advanced Mega Menu,
such as News, Events, Staff, RFPs, FAQs, Facilities, Jobs, Businesses, and Services, as well as
content area widgets, mini calendars and image widgets. More than one widget can
be added to a column, stacked on top of each other.
Widget columns can be added before or after the navigation columns, not in between
them. Multiple columns can be added to one mega menu. Widgets can only be
added to widget columns, not to navigation columns.
