I have one question: can I insert a web menu into my blog platform blogspot.com? I mean a web menu that your program has generated

Thank you, hi from Russia!

Hello,

Blogspot.com is an online authoring tool. If it allows you to upload files online (javascripts, etc.) then you can do it.

The AllWebMenus menu can be inserted in any hosted website, as long as the user is able to do the following in the hosting environment:

1. Upload javascript files online at the hosted website, either in a subfolder called "awmdata" OR in the ROOT if subfolders are not possible OR in any special subfolder dedicated for javascripts by the host (we need to know the arrangement so that we give proper instructions to the user).

2. Similarly, upload image files online at the hosted website, either in a subfolder called "awmdata/menu" OR in the ROOT if subfolders are not possible OR in any special subfolder dedicated for images by the host (we need to know the arrangement so that we give proper instructions to the user).

3. Add some lines of javascript code inside each page (or the template) that will be online (the hosted pages should permit this with some method).

Does blogspot.com allows you to do so?

Hello again,

Yes, if you can upload the compiled menu files in one domain/host and link the menu to your pages in another domain/host, there should not be any problems.

The only case where this will not work properly, is if you have “https” secure pages, in which case the viewers will get a message for allowing scripts to run from a different domain every time they view a page.

The main idea is that you upload all the compiled files wherever you want, and then add the menu Linking Code with the full-path to wherever you uploaded the files.

Let me know if you need more help on how to implement this.

Do your products work specifically with ModX Revolution CMS?

Hello Rick,

First, thank you for your interest in our Likno products.

Our script can be inserted in any html authoring tool, capable to create properly formatted html code.

The only thing relative to the authoring tool is to have the ability to enter the "linking code to the compiled project" in your page's HTML.

Also, you should be upload to upload the compiled "likno-scripts" folder online.

Is there a way to make the buttons on this menu a little shorter?  I want to adjust the height.

Hello Ellen,

These are 3 images (per state) in these properties

So, you need to access them from a 3^rd party graphics tool (photoshop, etc.) make them as you wish and add them again in the assets of the menu (choose them).

I am developing a website where I am using the accordion tool. The load time in firefox is horrible...no problem in chrome or IE. http://76.162.207.207/treatments.html is url...I need some suggestions to speed this up.

Reply From: Likno Customer Support

Hello,

I checked your site, and it seems that it is slow to load even without accordions in Firefox (and in most browsers).

The main problem seems to be from the heavy background image you are using. Please keep in mind that the accordion will not even start loading before the whole page is completed.

You may want to reduce the size of the background image (which is now 2508x1627 and a bit less than 700kb) using a graphic editor.

Initial Email Subject: add menubar to google blogger
Support Case Month: June 2012

I could really use some help. Does this AllwebMenus5 program allow me to add navbar or menubars to google blogger? If so i could really use some help right now. I have been working on this for over a week,

Hello James,

We doubt that google blogger allows you to upload javascript files on your account.

When the online website builder you are using does not let you upload any files or folders that you like to your online account, a major limitation is imposed to you for using javascript files (like our libraries or any other 3^rd-party libraries) on your website.

However, there is a way to use your Likno compiled projects on your website provided that you have access to any other hosting environment that allows files to be uploaded and served (hotlinked) from there.

How this works:

1. Provided that you do have access to an alternative online host that can host and serve files/folders (allowing "hotlinking"), you can simply upload the compiled files and folder there:

For example, after you compile an "AllWebMenus" project, the following compiled folder is created (at the location you specified at "Project Properties").

This folder contains the compiled files.

Therefore, you upload those files and folder somewhere on your alternative hosting account (that should allow "public access" and "hotlinking" of these files).

2. The second step is to update the "src" parameter of the "Linking Code" that you added to your pages, so that it points to the compiled file (.js file) that is now located at the alternative host (using an absolute external URL, starting with "http").

For example, this is a change you should make (for the "Likno Web Accordion Builder", but the same applies to AllWebMenus):

FROM:

<!-- ******** BEGIN LIKNO WEB ACCORDION CODE FOR accordion_example_external_javascripts ******** -->
<script type="text/javascript">var lwacLinkedBy="LiknoWebAccordion [1]",lwacName="accordion_example_external_javascripts",lwacBN="116";</script><script charset="UTF-8" src="likno-scripts/accordion_example_external_javascripts.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<!-- ******** END LIKNO WEB ACCORDION CODE FOR accordion_example_external_javascripts ******** -->

TO:

<!-- ******** BEGIN LIKNO WEB ACCORDION CODE FOR accordion_example_external_javascripts ******** -->
<script type="text/javascript">var lwacLinkedBy="LiknoWebAccordion [1]",lwacName="accordion_example_external_javascripts",lwacBN="116";</script><script charset="UTF-8" src="http://www.alternativehost/youraccount/likno-scripts/accordion_example_external_javascripts.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<!-- ******** END LIKNO WEB ACCORDION CODE FOR accordion_example_external_javascripts ******** -->

We are aware that this solution requires that you have access to an alternative host (while you already host your website somewhere else, but with file limitations) which you may not have. However, this is the only way to be able to run javascript files (like our libraries or any other 3^rd-party libraries) on your website, since the online builder tool you are using imposes limitations on uploading such files on your website's file structure.
