Hi folks,
I'm looking for a CMS solution that will allow us to maintain a collection of online documents, each a separate page.
The main requirement we have is that each of these documents could exist within a number of different categories (or sub menus - e.g. one document may exist in the scientists and americans and women section). So I need to be able to somehow tag these documents as belonging to a number of different parent menus and the menus dynamically reflect any changes to the document archive (additions/deletions and changes in categories).
It seems fairly straightforward requirement for a DB driven CMS to do but I've looked around the forums and at the modules available and can't find anything that confirms CMSMS will do it.
Can you help please..
Thanks
Can CMSMS build dynamic menus using pages with multiple parents?

Hello,
yes the main content organization is a hierarchical tree (not a free graph) with only one parent.
I'm not a module expert but I'm not aware of such a tag module. There may be one, I don't know.

Well I don't know about the tag but you could use the 'Content Type: internal link' after you made the page under another parent and just link to it and any changes you make will be reflected, these types of links can be replicated/made under multiple parents...

By default there is only a hierarchical tree order possible. But there are some options to show the confent of an entry in different trees.
