-- The Table - Contact Category Menu Item adds a link to an existing category of contacts, displaying the category as a table listing all published Contacts in this category as clickable Names. If there is only one Contact published, the Table will default to the full display of that contact as in 'Link - Contact Item'. Details:
Name : Type here the name of the Menu Item as it will appear on the menu on your site. If you leave this blank, the Category name will automatically be used. Category : Here you may select one published Contact. The list shows the 'Contact Categories' names as defined in Components -> Contacts -> Contact Categories. URL : The URL for this item will show after Apply/Save. Parent Item : Select 'Top' if you want the menu item to appear at the same level as your primary navigation. You can also put the menu item under an existing menu item by selecting that existing menu item as the parent. Ordering: By default, Joomla adds new items to the end of the existing menu items list. After saving or applying the new item, you can change its order when editing, using a pull-down menu to select the item after which the item will appear. Access Level: Sets who can view this item. Published: Sets whether the menu item is published or not. By default, new menu items are set to be published. Parameters:
Menu Image: Allows you to set an image that would appear to the left or right of the menu item. The image must be placed in the /images/stories directory. Furthermore, for the image to show, in Modules -> Site Modules -> [name-of-menu], the 'Show Menu Items' option must be set to 'Yes' in the parameters.
Page Class Suffix: Allows you to set customized styles for this page. The suffix you type here is automatically added to the CSS classes for this page, and will have to be defined in your template's CSS stylesheet for usage.
Back Button: Controls whether to show or hide a "Back" text link that would appear on the bottom of the page and return the user to the previously viewed page. The pull down lets select 'Use Global' to use the parameter as defined globally through the Site->Global Configuration, 'Hide' or 'Show'.
Page Title : Show/Hide the page title.
Page Title: Text to display at the top of the page. If left blank, the menu name will display instead. Other Categories: Hides or shows other categories when viewing a specific contact category.
Category Description: Hides or shows the descriptions for other contact categories. These category descriptions appear under the category name in the list of categories, which appears under the table of contact details.
# Category Items : Show/Hide the number of items for each category displayed. Table Headings: Show/Hide the Table headings ('Name,' 'Position,' 'Email,' 'Phone,' and 'Fax').
Position Column: Show/Hide the column displaying the contacts' 'Position'.
Email Column: Show/Hide the column displaying the contacts' 'Email'. Joomla automatically makes email addresses listed on the contact category page invisible to spambots (computer programs run by spammers that search the Internet looking for email addresses). Users who have JavaScript turned off in their Web browsers will not be able to view these email addresses.
Telephone Column: Show/Hide Show/Hide the column displaying the contacts' 'Telephone' number.
Fax Column: Hides or shows Show/Hide the column displaying the contacts' 'Fax' number.
