Custom styled top menu drop-down.
Prestashop is a good and mostly free open source online shop solution. Here’s the info where to find latest top menu module to use with it.
Go to Julien Breux GitHub download zip file. Unzip and put jbx_menu folder into Prestashop Modules folder. Disable cache and enable Force compile to see the changes, if not done yet.
On back-end Modules install Menu v2.8.6 by Julien Breux module found in Front Office Modules.
Module of Top Menu
Then go to Configure link and configure. Here you may create a custom top link for dropdown categories of products (functionality badly needed for PrestaShop, by default it will be not translatable Home).
Style with CSS. You may create jbx_menu folder in your theme CSS folder, in Modules (/themes/yourtheme/css/modules/jbx_menu/css/superfish-modified.css will be the right location).
Update: It was updated for 1.5.3.1 here, but some problems with it still reported on forum.
Thanks. I was looking for a drop down option and your post really helped. Regards
Hi! want to know if it is possible that the “Home” not display categories , only to display the page “home”.Start page.
I think only if you change it in the database. Sorry
Hi,
Have PrestaShop version 1.4.7.3.
I have loaded the module Menu v2.8.6 as decripted in your page.
But it dot not appear in the back end.
Any idea?
pascal
have you searched for “menu” in top right search filter? it should appear in front-end modules.
Hello,
Same problem. I’ve installed the module 2.8.6 as required and I can’t see it in the installed modules list. ALso ot found wioth the search filter.
I also use PS 1.4.7.3
Any issue ??
Thanks.
Did you rename the folder in ‘modules’ to ‘jbx_menu’?
Have you noticed any problems in the back office? I can’t delete or edit any of the menus I made. I’ve tried uninstalling and deleting it, but when I reinstall, they are still there. I tried downloading again and reinstalling. No luck. To move forward, I need to get those old ones out of there. Any ideas? (There is a trash can and edit icon next to the box that shows the menus, but when I click on them, nothing happens.)
Thanks!
You should disable cache in 2 places + force compile.
i can’t edit/delete menu items when i disabled cache and enabled force compilation
have u any idea sir?
If you use Prestashop 1.5.3 – it doesn’t work there.
thnak u
but iam using 1.5.3
what i have to do run this module
check github and forum http://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/182563-menu-horizontal-julien-breux-pour-ps-15/page__pid__1123826__st__20#entry1123826 – they say it’s fixed
in my localhost its working
where are the two places of cache
I cant set dropdown menu at all added subcategory to one of main menu but no luck how to set dropdown menu.
Cannot seem to get module to show in admin PrestaShop™ 1.4.6.2
. Installed folder in modules directory, disabled cache and force compiled, search in modules for menu….no module to install.
Hmm, the folder uploaded should be jbx_menu. In root modules.
I had the same problem where the module installed but did not display in the Modules directory. I checked the modules folder and renamed the folder “jbx_menu.” (It had uploaded as jbreux-jbx_menu07d0f.) Once I did that, it showed up and could be configured.
Nice post..i was looking the same. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for sharing.Nice post. How can I modify the javascript such that all categories show up on hover.Currently an element has to be under the mouse for it to be visible. Thanks
Thanks a lot. It worked on the fly!
Thank you Jessica!
Actually just rename jbx_menu-2.8.6 -> jbx_menu, and it works with Prestashop 1.4.9?
Where I can download this file ? Link is dead !!!

Hello,
I like very much this module and I have not found anything other with these characteristics, the problem that after upgradt to 1.5 version, it doesn’t work. Do you know if it exists a version for prestashop 1.5?
Thank you
I think 1.5 already has decent menu module.
Yes, I saw it… but it does not meet my needs. it is not possible to name a menu button as I like, to select only some categories – not all the tree of the selected category, to decide how menu levels can be shown, to configure sub categories for cms buttons. with menu of julien breux I was able to do all this. do you know where can I find it for 1.5 version?
thank you
sorry, I wasn’t able to update to 1.5 yet, so poka chto can’t tell you 🙂 a na site ego net update?
:-)… na saite ne nashla… I have not found it on the site, it is a real pitty that it doesn’t work in 1.5 ((, it was a very good menu
Finally I’ve installed Prestashop 1.5.3.1, so to correct that you’ll have to modify a bit the module file
AdminModuleMenu.php. For 1.5.3.1 just delete first line, if you have previous versions, I saw in forums such codesrequire_once _PS_ADMIN_DIR_ . '/../classes/AdminTab.php';orrequire_once _PS_CLASS_DIR_ . 'AdminTab.php';, also notice that search doesn’t work in my version. But I’ll put another search module on top 🙂Hello, I installed the module with jbx_menu folder name. Compile Force enable and disable Cache but when I try to set menu tells me. Tab file can not be found.
What is the problem?
PrestaShop ™ 1.4.9.0
disculpe mi ingles, traductor de google
mayybe you missed some file when uploaded the module? Or maybe not enough memory?
I downloaded the module several times and my host has space available. I can not find the problem.
finally installed, but the version 2.8.4. Differences?
Is it working on prestashop 1.5 v yet ? cheers
fixed: compress the folder that contains the module and use instalardor theme of prestashop modules.
Mhhh,
I am not even able to insert my categories and sub-categories. Is there a manual or how-to?
Could someone please make a blog entry with pictures? 🙂 I am not so savvy…
How do I add RTL support to this module? I want the menu to be left-align in LTR language, and right-align when using RTL language.
You should override CSS in rtl.css
I used this moduel in PS 1.4.X and works perfect. No I amd unsuccessful to even instal the module v.2.8.6 to PS 1.5. When I copy it to module folder, it does not shows in BO/module and when I tiedy to instal it, it writes “The module jbx_menu-master you uploaded is not a module “.
DO you advice me, how to get JBX menu module to 1.5?
still no update for this module 🙁
I would be so happy to have this nice module in PS1.5.x … without being a coder…
hi i have installed the menu in prestashop 1.5.3.but iam unable to create the menus in it.where can i find the menus their.in prestashop 1.4.9. their was a modules in that we are getting it as menus.and their we can create the menu as we wish but in prestashop 1.5.3 iam unable to see the menus and add the menus.actually i got the same problem with top menu in default theme so started working with this jbx menu but here also iam getting the same problem iam unable to understand where to create the menus.
In 1.5 go Modules >>>>> Modules >>>> and in the full list look for “Top horizontal menu” – enable it (if necessary) and click “Configure”
i have installed this module and everything is working except the “title” field. When I create a new list item with the type “CMS” (or anything else), the Title doesn’t save. I treats it as if I have left the field blank. Basically saves everything BUT the title.
Is it working on prestashop 1.2.4.0 Tnx.
Hey,
any updates for prestashop 1.5.6?
Thank you
Can I have the same menu vertically?
Hi,
I would like to show sub categories horizontally.
Please suggest me.
Thanks And Regards

Grand MERCI! And best wishes! Great works in Prestashop 1.6
How did you get it to work with 1.6
When I install the module it does not display anywhere in modules even though it says it has been installed.
Doesn’t seem to be working for prestashop 1.6
Is version 1.5 still available for download, a mirror link or something perhaps? I need it to try out something.
