<{if $count >= block.columns_limit}>// Check wether the counter has reached the total number of links to display in a single column
If yes, generate a new column but although I've searched through the various mm and config db tables as well as the block code I can"t find where Quote: is set.
It seems obvious that I should be able to do this by selecting the number of columns in the menu preferences but this doesn't work reliably, ie selecting 1 column results in two or three in the block and setting 4 gives me five columns. I have adjusted the block width from 80 to 190 px (inside the containing right block of 200px) but this also has no effect on the column count.
Can anyone suggest how to get the menu to behave again?
I should say that this comes as I try to resurrect the site after it went quite haywire and got worse after i did a db table repair. I've only regained a semblance of normalcy after uninstalling newbb and multimenus and reinstalling the custom theme. After installing MM1.8 I totally rebuilt the menus rather than reload from backups. And now i'm getting these anomalies.

I'm having a similar problem with a 2.0.13 installation so I guess the problem and its resolution is generic. In my case the multimenu module fails to install 2 templates and gives the same response as above when I try to "generate". I'm also experiencing problems with the module itself and I hope this is related to the missing templates. I have tried uninstalling, clearing the template_c cache and then reinstalling, without success. What else should I be doing to get a complete install?

I'm having the same problem but it may be an extension of problems I was having with 2.0.13.1. During the install phase this comes up: Quote: Unable to install System. Error(s):
- Could not delete user configuration category
- Could not insert System to database.

Unknown column 'user_icq' in 'field list'

Module System updated successfully. When I examine the `user_profile` table I find that there is only one field: `profileid` but the upgrade.sql doesn't at any point seem to have a statement that creates all of the supporting fields. Where do I find it, or should I just create it from the `user` table specs? Also I can't find the definitive source references to `user configuration category`, `block_id`, `module_id` or `pageid` that would allow me to solve these errors. The upshot of these faults seems to be that while I can use the website as if logged in attempts to get to the admin side result in a blank screen.

You were quite right. I did a complete deinstall - which incidentally did not remove some tables so I deleted them manually (using CocoaSQL actually).
Then a fresh reinstall of newBB 2.0.2 and everything is now sweet. Thanks for the clues!

Thanks for the flash tutorial, JD. At least I can now get a block up. However I still can't get it to list the sublinks. Lets see if I did all the right things:
Select Preferences from the Multimenu module.
Display main page = no
Banner = no
nav bar, icons = no
image wiodth = 0
menu to display = none
Theme = path
Menu Title 01= "College Documents"
Display in Index=Yes
The rest left untouched. Go1
Add two Permanent sublinks
"get the College Manual". Relative link to file. Absolute link to picture. Make it accessible to webmasters, Members and anonymous. Status Online (different from Visible?) .Target self.
"get MOPS". Relative link to file. no link to picture. Make it accessible to webmasters, Members only. Status Online. Target self
Go to Blocks Admin
Set menu Block #1 (College Documents) to right side, weight 4
Make visible on all pages
Block format = Unordered List, 1 column
Links to display = All, by weight
Display Title and Image
Leave the rest untouched
So when I drop in on the site I see only the Block Title, no sublinks, regardless of user type.
What am I doing wrong?
UPDATE: A total uninstall, reinstall did the trick.

I'm bamboozled by this module, even though I've read the manuals and this thread a couple of times. In trying to understand it I've comparede its action to the standard main menu but I have found some terms are not fully defined:
Category?
_MI_MULTIMENU_NAME_01 vs _MI_MULTIMENU_NAME_A or B?
What is a main link vs the permanent sublink or dynamic sublink
Why do blocks have the same names as menus? and why is there no Menu A or Menu B?
sorry about the pedantry but its the last refuge of the confused mind

Quote: To newbb2? Not really. Its a new install, but having said that I have just upgraded XOOPS itself from 2.0.7 through to 2.0.13.2 and during that process have installed, uninstalled and reinstalled newbb a couple of times. The essential thing though is that it hasn't actually been used. Well, now that I think about it, yes. I installed newbb and setup a couple of forums and some dummy topics. Then I unistalled it entirely and installed newbb2 and recreated the category structure from scratch. Are you suggesting remnant scrap in the db structure somewhere?
