Knowledge Base support case for AllWebMenus Pro, abstracted and stripped of all user’s private info.

Hello!

We’re hoping to use Google Translate to make our website available in multiple languages. Although Translate isn’t perfect, it does a decent job. However, we’re having an issue with our menu that we built with AllWebMenus Pro (v5.3) as shown in the pictures below.  Is there a way to fix this (text overlap, fixed width of sub-menus)?

Hello,

Can you please send us the URL to have a check and see what technique you are using for the translated text to show on the menu?

Kind Regards,

Is there a way to set a fixed width for each menu item so that translated text ends up on 2 lines whenever necessary?

Reply From: Likno Customer Support

Hello,

You can set a fixed width for each menu item:

In case you want all the items to have at least a width value you can go to Style Editor -> Main Items Style (or Subitems/Subitems+) -> Size -> Minimum Width and set the value.

In case you want each menu item to have different minimum width then you can go to Menu Editor -> Select the menu item you want -> All Values -> Size and set the minimum width value.

After you have made all your changes, you need to re-compile the menu project and re-upload the produced files to your server.

Please, let me know if I can be of further help.

Thank you.

When I make any selection off my main menu to another web page, I get numbers at the end of it like this:

http://www.bkglrc.com/index.html#.T9dJFcXNl2k

I have two separate menus, with separate folders to contain each JS and image files.  None of my other web sites I use your menus on are doing this.  I'm at a loss for the reason.

The only software that does not produce these numbers is MS explorer.  I see the numbers in Chrome, FireFox, Safari.

Any help or direction would be appreciated.

Thank you, Paul

Dear Paul,

This is not related to our menus in any way.

I am pretty confident that it comes from the “google translate” code you have in this site.

Note that even if you type the URL by hand in the address bar, it “refreshes” automatically and shows the same code at the end.

Dear Paul,

Did you verify that it is indeed caused by Google Translate code?

Anyway, in case you run into other problems in the future, remember that we are here to help.
