Help installing 'Horizontal Category Menu', please.

Hi

I need a horizontal category menu for my website and cam across 'Horizontal Category Menu', and need some help installing it. Please do let me know if there's a better way to achieve a horizontal menu with drop down.

I am running 2.3.1 so presume to start with I don't need to install the 'One Folder Template System' first ?

The instructions to install 'Horizontal Category Menu' say:

========

STEP 1

Upload
superfish.css to catalog/template/your_template.
Upload
cat_navbar.php to catalog/template/your_template/plugins.

where your_template is the name of the template that you wish to install the horizontal navigation bar.

=======

*There isn't a /template/ folder for the installation 2.3.1 so whats it on about ?

There is a 'Templates' folder within the file you down load for the install, but no template/ ?

Really need some help with this guys, I've installed many many CMS's, plugins etc, and I installed the OSC 2.3.1 manually, but this simply doesn't make sense to me.

I even asked this and offered to pay someone to install but had no offers.

Just need to get this done how urgently.

please help.

Thanks

Ashley

If I was you I would use this instead ... html/css only and you can pretty much cut and paste it in!

Not sure how this would work on e commerce categories ? I presume I would need to move <php> ?

You can just hard code the links to the categories as relevant ... no php needed ... just hover over the category to get the URL.

Doing it for someone else and they will need to add many categories (hence the drop down sub categories) over the coming months. So really need it just to work from the start automatically.
