This is a great tutorial but the JS section gives me an error on the last line of the script. I copied and paste you’re javascript but it’s not working.

Comment on Magento – Adding CMS Pages To The Main Navigation by Brendon Held

Thanks for this tutorial guys.

I must say, I agree with @mores though, and ended up implementing the method suggested in the tutorial he linked to. With 2 lines of code added to my navigation/top.phtml template, and creating two static blocks where I can add links before and after the categories at any time, which link directly to the pages I am linking to, just seems slicker to me.

Thanks.

Another solution is to create a category with no products in it, and use the description section to style your CMS content in there. You can then simply hide the “no products found” notification with CSS

Your solution worked for me, but once I refreshed the indexes the custom redirects were rewritten to their initial state. I don’t think it is a sustainable way of adding links to level1 top menu.

Thank you for writing this! Every other guide was so terribly written (just like most Magento documentation, it seems) that nothing I did seemed to get it to work. Your steps are written clear and concise and got the job done – finally. Thanks again!

Comment on How to Build a Horizontal jQuery Accordion by Jane

Ps It seems to work using % instead of width. I’ll let you know the progress – currently attempting 84% as the panels disappear off the page otherwise.

Thanks. I’ve fixed it – the size of the various containers was pushing into the footer and pushing the text over, so I have increased the height and it has fixed it.

Now trying to make it work in a tablet and mobile viewport. Is there a way of altering the script to recognize the device, and therefore restrict the width? I think the issue is “$(this).animate({width: “750px”}, 300);” – it seems to be over-riding the narrower width I am setting for .panel .active and/or .active.

Thanks again. Really admiring what you’ve done to get this working! (I’ve also credited you in the CSS – thanks.)

Look at your footer ul. On the page that has the accordion, it is getting different styles from the accordion stylesheet. I’m not sure what is going on without diving into it, but if you put clear: both on the .footer class, your footer nav will look the same as the other pages, just further down.

Thanks for that – there was an error in the CSS, and I have given the .active its own CSS also. Still unsure why the footer should look different on this page, but very, very grateful for your help!
