Recoded CSS construction

Search Engine Optimisation is an essential aim of any site and the Nexus layout caters to that goal.

In the code hierarchy, the main content block is placed before the side columns, so it is crawled first by Google and the various other search engines.

Non-Standard Fonts

Using the CSS font-face function, we can use custom fonts without the need to use cumbersome flash solutions and not restrict ourselves just to web standard fonts.

Custom fonts provide the perfect means to individualise your site.

Menu Extravaganza

The inbuilt menu has 2 modes: Fusion, a dropdown based javascript menu; and SplitMenu, a side column menu. Fusion can be degraded to suckerfish functionality.

Parameters also allow for a module position or no menu.

Fusion Menu

RokNavMenu, the core application of our menu, has been completely recoded, to provide a foundation for even more complex and advanced menu systems.

Fusion is effectively a dropdown menu which combines the former RokMoomenu and Suckerfish systems into one, offering both a javascript enhanced and basic, simple dropdown modes. The menu itself is built on the rewritten core of the latest revision of RokNavMenu, the core application behind all RocketTheme menus.

Fusion offers a series of new abilities ranging from Menu Icons, Subtext support and much greater controls over the Multiple Column ability for dropdowns.

Menu Modes: Fusion Menu - SplitMenu - No Menu
