Accordion Menu

This simple module for Joomla! 1.5 creates an accordion menu using unordered lists and the Mootools library. It is based off of the standard mod_mainmenu and a script written by ah72 and shared on the Joomla! forums.

It will automatically create an accordion menu based on nested <ul> tags. Simply define a menu in the Menu Manager that has nested items and then tell mod_accordionmenu to display it.

Current Version: 0.5

You can find this module on the Joomla! Extensions site here. There is also a tracker open for feature requests and bugs.

Installation:

Install the module
Go to your Module Manager and select the “Accordion Menu” module
On the right select the menu you want to display where it says “Menu Name”
Go look at your new accordion menu

Note:

Javascript must (of course) be turned on
There is no styling on the menus
If you want to run multiple instances of the module, the new instances must have a custom “Menu Tag ID” parameter specified

Troubleshooting:

If the plugin is not working for you, please take these steps first:

Check to make sure Javascript is turned on.
Use the Firebug or Web Developer extension and see if the error is obvious.
Do a fresh install of Joomla! and enable mod_accordionmenu first. Then enable other modules, plugins, and components and see if one of them is breaking mod_accordionmenu.
I have found that it is usually another element of the page that is breaking mod_accordionmenu. Something may be importing an older mootools library, stopping the script from executing, etc. Unfortunately, these are things which I can’t control. If the above steps don’t reveal an answer, feel free to send the problem my way.

NOTE: This module was managed by James Frank of http://jamesfrank.info and now have been handed over to us to take this to the next level.
