Figure it out. ‘thematic_postheader_posttitle’ works. But thematic’s css is set to clear all on headers tags in the parent CSS. So I added this to my child css and your code worked! The thumbnail is to the left of the post excerpt! Thank you.

h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6 {
clear:none;
}

Great tip!

Only problem is that floating the thumbnail left doesn’t work for me with thematic_postheader_posttitle

But I know float is successfully applied to the image because it works with get_the_excerpt.

Any ideas? I’m trying hard to get the title and excerpt next to the thumbnail. And I know css well, but float isn’t work with thematic_postheader_posttitle for some reason.

I’m not aware of a plugin that will help construct the mega menus, but I have been exploring WP3.0’s new menu features and there’s a lot of possibility there for creating custom groups of menu items to go in a mega menu. You’d still have to manually create and assign the mega menu panels though…

Hi Thanks for the two articles on Mega Menus I am also trying to make a 200 page html website into WP . I am not confident in my coding skills. Is there a WP Plugin that will allow me to create mega menu?

Yes, the sub menus still need to be hand coded, though you can mitigate much of it by calling WordPress’ menu functions for each group of links and explicitly stating the parent page. I’ve explored having everything created on the fly, but you end up doing a lot of work repositioning groups of links — or I should say trying to reposition them, since not all groups are going to be the same length/height. As long as you set up your subpages in a logical manner with appropriate parent pages, the editing is fairly straightforward.

Looks great. Would I be right in thinking you still need to hard-code the sub menus? Is there any way to have the main nav, and submenus created on the fly?
