The template we've downloaded, Ice Future, comes with a couple of free modules. You don't really need them in order to be able to use the template. However, they can add useful functionality to your site. Especially the IceMegaMenu module brings many advantages in comparison with the Joomla menu module and it renders a menu that blends in nicely with the template design. Let's add this module:
Navigate to Extensions | Extension Manager and click Browse to navigate to the downloaded menu module,
mod_icemegamenu_v.3.0.0.zip
. Install the module.Next, select the
plugin plg_icemegamenu_v.3.0.0.zip
and install this plugin too.Enable the plugin. Go to Extensions | Plug-in Manager and locate the IceMegaMenu plugin. Click on the red cross in the Status column. It changes into a check mark; the plugin is active.
Now we can enable the menu module and change its settings. Navigate to Extensions| Module Manager and open the IceMegaMenu module. Change the settings...
