[Drupal] Monster Menus

[Little, Jason]

This isn't the answer you are looking for but...

There are currently 12 sites in the world that reporting using the latest stable 7.x release of monster menus (33 across all versions) and the maintainers of this module are not maintainers for many other things.

As this module appears to do some very advanced and specific things, that is a very scary place to be. You could easily end up maintaining it, forking it, or running into a lot of compatibility issues with other contrib modules which simply never came up in the 33 sites using it.

Have you considered domain access (more like monster menus) or Aegir (multisite)? Both have fairly large install bases, and I believe there are people on campus who are well versed in both solutions.
https://drupal.org/project/domain (I think someone around here is using this)
http://community.aegirproject.org/ (asc, eng, prior?)

Alternatively, you might be able to do a lot with workbench and its access control modules.

Subject: [Drupal] Monster Menus

Hi all!

I'm wondering if anyone around here has used Monster Menus. From what I've read, it will do exactly what we need for segmenting a site into departments so each one has its own navigation and permissions, without resorting to a multi-site installation.

We've got it installed (which was a long process) but we're running into some issues, which I suspect is partially a learning curve thing but it's also perhaps how we set it up. It's a new Drupal 7 instance so I don't know what might be causing the issues.

Long story short, is there anyone that might be able to spare some time to visit Fisher and help us out?

Thanks,
Rob
