DoNotLinkIt

[Pedro]

Hello, i use the cms typo3, with bootstrap and smartmenu as menu.
And did set that i can tell every page in menu that it not linked. But if i do this dont expand the submenus anymore from the mainmenu.
example
Games/
Multiplayer/(notlinked)
Gamename(invisible)

where can i find the rule, where i can set if site isnt linked, the submenus expand.

thank you

Hi, honestly it’s a bit difficult for me to understand what exactly you need to achieve. I guess you could output a special class to the parent <li> element of the item (e.g. <li class="notlinked">...) and then use some CSS to hide/disable the sub menu or something like that.

But to be able to help you, please at least share some kind of demo URL and try to explain a bit better what exactly you’d like to achieve.

So, as you asked me to for a better explanation of my problem I will try it with the help of my testwebsite http://htulambo.test.v22017124090757741.bestsrv.de/.
On my testwebsite are different tabs like “Suche”, “News_Detailseite” and so on.

The problem I currently have is, that when I’m hovering on the tab “Suche +”, two tabs, “+Results” and “testseite” below, usually show up. If you continue to hover with your mouse on the linked site “+Results” another tab is expanding to the right called “Unterseite”.

Now we come to the important part of my request. The tab “testseite” is in contrast to “Suche+” NOT linked. As a result the subpage “unterseite” is not expanding to the right like above “Suche+”.

My question I logically have is, how could I fix the problem that even not linked pages can expand subpages and where in the code do I have to search for it.
Kind regards, Pedro.

Just change your no link items’ HTML from this:

<span class="btn link">testseite</span>

to this:

<a href="#">testseite</a>

Or if you like, you could also add a class to the link – e.g.:

<a href="#" class="no-link">testseite</a>

and some CSS to use the default cursor (or even disable the hover, etc.):

.no-link {
	cursor: default;
	background-color: white !important;
}

In general, it’s not recommended having no-link items that have sub menus for various reasons. For a bit more insights as to why, you can take a look at the following topic:
