Help with Spry menu bar editing

I posted this discussion topic, and have received loads of viewing but no comments:

 

http://forums.adobe.com/message/4657643#4657643

 

When I looked at the discussion just now, it was saying Read Only, but I don't understand why.   Can anyone help me the original query, or why the discussion has changed to RO.

 

If you need more information, or I'm posting in the wrong place, perhaps someone could let me know.

 

Thanks.

    Adobe announced a few days ago that it plans to stop developing Spry. That's probably why the Spry Forum is locked.

    Do you still want to keep using Spry?

    GitHub is a repository for scripts.  Adobe moved the Spry scripts and sample files to GitHub for people who want to keep using/developing it.

     

    You can keep using the Spry menus in your web site.  Nothing has changed in that regard unless you previously linked to Spry's CSS and JS files on Adobe Labs server.  If so, you'll need to download those support files from GitHub and save them in your site folder.

     

    As to your other questions, can you post a link to your site and explain what you need help with?

    Why so many templates?  Even for complex sites, one Template is all you really need.  Changes to layout should be contained in your CSS code.

     

    Anyway, I use Server-Side Includes for site wide menus, headers and footers.  In this way you only need to edit & upload one file.  Changes are automatically populated to pages by the server.  It's much more efficient than Templates or Library Items.
