ABOUT MENU BLOCK
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
Like Drupal core, the Menu Block module allows you to create blocks of menu
|
|
items. However, Menu Block's blocks are much more configurable than Drupal
|
|
core's.
|
|
|
|
INSTALLATION
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
You must remove and re-add any existing menu blocks after installing this module.
|
|
|
|
Currently the module has no effect on existing menu blocks,
|
|
see issue: #2787677: Reconfigure core menu blocks to be menu_block blocks

CONFIGURING MENU BLOCKS
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
When adding or configuring a menu block, several configuration options are
|
|
available:
|
|
|
|
Basic Options:
|
|
|
|
Title
|
|
The default block title will be the menu name.
|
|
|
|
Display title
|
|
Checkbox to have the block title visible or not. If unchecked, the block
|
|
title will remain accessible, but hidden visually.
|
|
|
|
Menu levels:
|
|
|
|
Initial menu level
|
|
The menu will only be visible if the menu item for the current page is at or
|
|
below the selected starting level. Select level 1 to always keep this menu
|
|
visible.
|
|
|
|
Maximum number of menu levels to display
|
|
The maximum number of menu levels to show, starting from the initial menu
|
|
level. For example: with an initial level 2 and a maximum number of 3, menu
|
|
levels 2, 3 and 4 can be displayed.
|
|
|
|
Advanced options:
|
|
|
|
Expand all menu links
|
|
All menu links that have children will "Show as expanded".
|
|
|
|
Fixed parent item
|
|
Alter the options in “Menu levels” to be relative to the fixed parent item.
|
|
The block will only contain children of the selected menu link.
|
|
|
|
Use as title
|
|
Replace the block title with an item from the menu.
|
|
|
|
HTML and style options:
|
|
|
|
Theme hook suggestion
|
|
A theme hook suggestion can be used to override the default HTML and CSS
|
|
classes for menus found in menu.html.twig.
