using mega menu with existing theme.

Hi I have 3 templates from you now but am having troubles getting MegaMenu (which I really love !!) set up on a site that has an existing OYE theme already.  I want to use an Uber Sporty layout for parts of the site and keep the existing OYE template for the main front page.  Your MegaMenu system is way better so I would like to use it on all pages for consistency.  The OYE template uses their own menus system not the Magento default.  Which files do I need to change on the OYE theme (and how) to get your MegaMenu to display correctly?  If I disable the OYE menu then currently I get no menu items at all.
Thanks

Thanks Ziven.  It has installed ok -- I just can’t get it to display! I had already checked the documentation for MegaMenu, and as far as I can tell the topnav container is specified in the page.xml file ok, but seems to be overwritten somewhere else by one of the themes or sub-themes because the final page code seems to have a different Nav container specified and I don’t understand enough about where Magento keeps everything to know what to change.  I would appreciate a little more help please.
 
Best regards
Martin

Hi Ziven
I was just trying to suggest that the functionality that the OYE Themetuner add-on gives in terms of being able to chnage the colour and appearance of text, borders, blocks, backgrounds etc. is very useful.  Being able to change the menu text colour easily for example isn’t something that your current themes offer.  If you are after new ways to make your themes more attractive for future buyers then a styling module that worked with basetheme sounds a good idea to me?
I think my original thread has run its course now, but thank you for all your help along the way.
Kind regards
Martin
