Adding new 800 number as menu item

Post by basunetw » Thu Apr 26, 2012 5:30 pm

Hello, I’m new to developing websites, but have been able to complete about 85% of my own. My dilemma is that I don’t know how to add my (800) number in the mainmenu tab area following “Jobs” and my social media icons to the left of my “Search” box at the top right. There will be 6 icons.

I’ve downloaded the social media icons and have placed them at the bottom of the page. Any advice? Thank you. ???

Try putting your 800 number as a menu item, using menu item type "Text Separator".

Klementz, it worked. Thank you for the advice. I really appreciate it. Can you tell me how to make my (800) number a dialable link?

No way to do that directly within Joomla, as far as I know. It would not really be a practical thing to do anyway, because it would rely on the users having some sort of telephony system set up on their computers.

Ok. Thanks again. I'm still unable to place my social media icons where I want them, which is right before the search box at the top of the page. Any advice? Thanks.

Your template has a module position called "Top" that is above the "Search" position. Set your social media module to this position.
