- All Templates
Widget Options
| Option | Use | Comments | Available from Version |
|---|---|---|---|
| Description | A short description of the widget's use. | We recommended this field be updated so the widget's purpose is clear at a glance from the template page. | All |
| Layer | The layer the widget is valid for. | The layering technology allows for the content to be shown to specific audiences. This is handy if the content is only valid for a certain type of user, or if the same widget is required for more than one audience, but different configuration is needed. The widget can be added to the zone more than once and the layer feature can determine which audience can see each widget. | All |
| Mobile Menu Prompt | The top level menu label when viewed on a mobile device. | Default is: Categories | All |
| Number Of Levels To Show On Mobile | The number of category levels the user can drill down to on mobile devices. | Default is: 3 | All |
| Mobile Back Prompt | The text label for the 'back' link within the menu. | Default is: Back | All |
| Number Of Levels To Show | The number of category levels the user can drill down to on desktop browsers. | Default is: 3 | All |
| Show Single Column for 2 Level Categories? | Determines whether just the upper level category is displayed in cases where the category consists of 2 levels. | Default is: ticked Untick to disable | All |
| Max Number Of Columns | The maximum number of category columns under any one menu item. | Default is: 4 | All |
| Category URL Prefix | The prefix inserted into the category URL before the category name. Primarily used during existing site upgrades to BPD, where it is desirable to maintain existing URLs. | Example: /category
| All |
| Break Descriptions Over Two Lines | Determines whether longer top level category descriptions are broken into 2 lines. This is useful where there are many top level categories, as 2 line descriptions are more compact. | Default is: unticked Tick to enable | All |
| Use Manual Column Sequencing? | Determines whether to use manual assignment of categories into columns. When ticked, obeys the sort sequence from Category Maintenance program in PRONTO. | Sort sequence 100s will appear in the first column, 200s will appear in the second column, etc. Default is: unticked TIck to enable | All |
| Home Page Link Icon | Setting this field inserts a link to the home page (in the form of the selected icon) at the start of the mega menu. | All | |
| Render Mobile Menu? | Determines whether the menu should be displayed on mobile devices. | If the flyout-style Mobile Menu widget has been added to the Theme Layout, we recommend this setting be unticked so the mega menu does not render on mobiles. Default is: ticked Untick to disable | All |
