title: Joomla! 3.2 - Add a Global Parameter to "New Menu Item"
body: <p>I am busy trying to customize Joomla's Menu Parameters so that in the administrator area when you create a new menu item, You have an additional option of "1 Column" or "2 Column", And this has to be both accessible by the index file of the template and also Joomla! Update Friendly..</p>
  
  <p>And this is basically just to give the user the freedom of selecting the layout style of a particular page.</p>
  
  <p>What Would be the Best way to go about this?</p>
  
  <p>Any Help Greatly Appreciated.</p>
  
  <p><strong>UPDATE</strong></p>
  
  <p>what i am trying to achieve is similar to when you select a category for a menu item in Joomla!, I want to append it to the url exactly like a category, so you select 1 of 2 columns when creating a menu item and then in the url it should say: <code>&amp;col=1</code> or <code>&amp;col=2</code>.</p>
