Hi,
I am using the Delacroy template. When I am logged in, I can see a user menu in the upper right corner. This menu has the user icon, my username and two menu items (Profile and Logout). How can I edit this menu so that I can add several other menu items for the logged-in user? I cannot find the right place to do that.
Thanks
Uwe
User Menu in Delacroy Template

Hi,
as I remeber it request template plugin code customization,
becuase that module was overriden by us.
Here:
plugins\system\helixultimate\overrides\mod_login\default.php
Hi Paul,
I have checked it but this plugin is not what I am looking for. It must be some other plugin or module.
Just to make sure we are talking about the same thing, it is the login that only shows when I switch it on in the template settings (Basic -> Header -> Enable Login).
Could you please double-check?
Thanks!
I have found it. It's in /templates/delacroy/features/menu.php. I can edit it but how can I make sure that my edits do not get overwritten when I install an update of Delacroy? Is there a way to create a custom override for this file?
Indeed, if we don't talk about login module,
is here:
templates\delacroy\features\menu.php
I am using the standard Joomla login module. But as I said above, the changes have to be done in /templates/delacroy/features/menu.php and I now need to find a way to protect them against getting overwritten. Any idea?
Sorry, but that file cannot be overriden.
So you have few options:
- Note it! And remember after next template update, templates are not updated so often, so nothing to worry. Keep backup of customized file in case of.
- Change file rights from 644 to 444 - it may help.
- Use customized login module instead. But it's very time consuming.
