NAVT 1.0.27 is released

The newest version of NAVT was released today. The release includes a few important bug fixes. I’ve changed the look a little to conform to the color choices used by Word Press 2.7. I’ve also (temporarily) removed the restore/backup functionality. The code isn’t working correctly and it’s on my list of things to fix next.

Now that the JQuery Team has released a stable version of their User Interface library I’m seriously considering rewriting the NAVT interface (once again). There are a few things about the current NAVT interface I’ve never been completely happy about. In addition, I think the code base is becoming a bit bloated – maybe its just time for a rewrite.

NAVT V1.0.27

Over the past few months I’ve been reading messages in the forum about strange NAVT behavior; each time I look into it, I’ve not been able to duplicate the problem – until two days ago. It took me two days to finally find the bug and fix it. (Leo will be happy about that).

The problem has been described as

  • Group items get reset
  • Items are missing
  • Configuration randomly changes
  • Group settings are not saved

In the next day or so I’m going to finish up a couple of other minor changes, test the plugin with Word Press 2.7 and I’ll release version 1.0.27 of NAVT.

Working with CSS Collapsing Menus and NAVT

A discussion in the NAVT forum has promoted me to sit down and explain how you can use CSS collapsing menus with the NAVT plugin. This article assumes you have some working knowledge of Cascaded Style Sheets used to style your Word Press theme and some experience with NAVT. The article explains where and how to begin integrating a collapsing menu into your web site using NAVT to construct the correct tag structure. This article applies to NAVT version 1.0.23 and above.
