Site Builder Menu Wrong Way Round

When adding menu items to the site builder the list when they are added is the wrong way round. I know you can drag them into place but should it not be that the first menu item added should be the first in the list not at the bottom ? So lets say you start by adding your Homepage link then choose to add another link of let's say Gallery and so on. If you look at the list it will then show the hompage at the bottom then the Gallery above it and so on if you added more links. So to make the home page first you would then have to go and drag that up and so on for the others.

It would be a lot clearer if the first tab in the list would be the first tab in the menu list and so on, rather than the first tab for the menu at the bottom.

I agree - I thought that was odd. *lol* Oh well - we will adjust.

Makes sense!
That drove me nuts when adding images to my Blogger Blog- I always had to add the last image first, all in reverse order.

Your talking about the Ningja skin right? The issue is the menu is on the right in the ningja skin, so the menu elements are floated right
float:right
on the Slate skin the top menu item is the left menu item.

Cant think of another way to get the menu to the right on the menu without setting a width.

Thats why it feels upside down in ningja. Suggestions.

--edit--
Might be able to get it normalized, ill have a play.

Yeah, its possible, it just needs to be implemented at the skin level. It requires the templates to be shuffled around a bit. I'll have to check with Doug before fiddling with the skins.

if you want to implement it for yourself, the solution is here

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7614717/li-elements-have-float-left-to-be-aligned-to-the-right-in-a-container

in
/skins/jrNingja/css/menu.css
#menu li {
    float: left;
    border-right: 0 solid #000;
    position: relative;
}

and
#menu, #menu ul {
    padding: 0;
    list-style: none;
    float: right;
}

That will reverse the order of the menu items in the header menu. Then swap the order in the templates:
/skins/jrNingja/header_menu_desktop.tpl and
/skins/jrNingja/header_menu_mobile.tpl

Just a note, there is no need to reverse the order in the header_menu_mobile.tpl file, just the header_menu_desktop.tpl file.

I'll have a fix for this in the next skin release.
