Introduction

What does it do?

The Reea Teasmenu extension is a modified and improved version of the A1 Teasermenu extension, which displays an automatically generated overview for subpages or a selection of pages.

You can add two images per subpage for the teaser rollover image. The appearance of the teaser page can be defined by changing the HTML- template and via CSS.
