I would like to implement a responsive MegaMenu (using Bootstrap).
However, Kartris menu works with categories and sub-categories and creates dynamic pages.
Kartris menu seems tightly coupled with the category database.
Is it even possible to replace Kartris menu with a custom menu?
The menu system I have in mind will have links to hard coded pages containing relevant products. But I would also have to know sql queries to properly retrieve products in category/products hierarchy - the problem gets larger and larger!
Is it somthing that Kartris techs can help me with? for free or there is a charge?
The more I try to follow the code, which is very well written, the more I find learning new ways to do things but I am starting to think that its not possible.

Its definitely possible - you have full open source code, so virtually anything is possible.
Its possibly something that could be done as a custom job but you'd need to specify quite clearly how it was to work, and it could be costly to do, because it sounds like quite a complex modification.

You could always post it as a project on freelancer sites; the Kartris code is open, so it's certainly possible for someone with good asp.net and HTML/CSS/Javascript skills to do this.

Well, I think I need to learn a bit more about how the category links are created. I am starting from looking at the HTML generated by the category menu. I can see how it uses resources/code to create the dynamic products page.
Rather then ask further questions, I will spend sometime reverse engineering the menu (big words for a humble asp.net 1.1 programmer) and bringing my skills up to date.
It is wonderful to learn from your code; there are things you are doing with configurations settings that I never thought about doing or using.
Watch this space!
