Or you can create another menu with MyMenus Would like to, just don't know where to start and afraid to loose the download menu.


I just gave you a starting point Lambert. I made the beginning of a my menus downloads menu and placed it in a block on the right, it looks just like you want it! The block is only visible for admins right now, as soon as you are finished adding links it can be put online by giving it anonymous rights. And the current downloads menu can be removed.

You can add or change download links in the links manager from my menus, first choose the Downloads menu in the dropdown on the top right.

And please don't be afraid to edit your menu's, no harm can be done. In case needed I'll assist you by removing the old downloads menu and putting the new one online.

I already told you before Lambert, just use the menu module you already use for the main menu for making a second downloads menu. You don't have that many downloads so it's not much work

did you have a look at my mail concerning the slide show that often is used on websites to show examples of what they make or offer.


What you could use is a lightbox script, I have build them into xoops websites in the past. But problem is you need some skills to achieve that. You need to tweak the theme with some extra code and for adding pictures in a post you need html skills...

Do not ever say Mambo to a species called Mamba. They are easily offended and have a deadly bite

I would suggest to forget about making a fixed menu and header, it's complex and not user friendly. Better is compacting content, use 'read more' or in your case a slideshow presenting pictures one by one. And you could consider having less pictures, just show the crucial ones showing the nicest parts of your offering. Do not overwhelm your potential buyers with too many information. Less is more

The site is loading pretty well now.

But just compare the score from the frontpage when measured with the google tool I mentioned (96/100) with a page with many pictures likehttp://fla-ts.com/modules/publisher/item.php?itemid=10 (65/100). This proves the pictures slow down page render, but they still do after being optimized. As pictures use more bandwidth compared to text.

I guess the presentation module Mamba is developing could be a nice option for your site. Now your users have to scroll through some large pages with up to twenty pictures. Having a powerpoint alike presentation is more userfriendly and prevents having endless pages.

You have to compress them with a picture editor. It's the way you save them, less quality means reduced filesize and improved loading speed. Many photo editors also have a feature to save images optimized for web use (reduced filesize).

I also disabled template rebuild in settings, as you don't need it in a production site. It slows down the site!

Sure you can

First of all check your site with an online speed tester, google has a good one:
http://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/

I did test your site (http://fla-ts.com) and there are some issues, some are a bit difficult to deal with but with compressing the many images on publisher pages you can improve loading of that pages.

I checked and it seems module caching is not enabled which is good, as their are some issues with caching after the cache is filled up after some time...
