The Mega Menu is built into the template framework so this template can also use the Mega Menu if you choose. If the Impact Menu does not suit your needs, you can disable this module and enable the Mega Menu. As you can see, we have done this for this page. Displayed above is the Mega Menu.

To make it easy to switch back and forth between a custom menu and the built in Mega Menu, we added a template parameter to completely disable the Mega Menu. When this is selected the mega menu will not be shown on any pages.
In order for this menu to work all you have to do is install and enable the MegaMenu plugin in the backend. Next you set the width of the dropdown in the template manager. The rest of the settings are all done in the menumanager.
All Simple Grid powered templates with the Mega Menu give you the choice between 5 menu types.
- CSS Dropdown Menu; a dropdown menu displaying the lower levels in columns.
- Smooth Dropdown Menu; the same as CSS Dropdown Menu but with a smooth javascript effect added for dropdowns.
- CSS Dropline Menu; a dropline menu displaying the first sublevel in line.
- Smooth Dropline Menu; the same as CSS Dropline Menu but with a smooth javascript effect added for the dropline and the dropdowns.
- Joomla Splitmenu; the old faithfull splitmenu which gives you the ability to display the sublevel menu items in a module position.
