Show submenu in box on page

Post by tcdk »

Hi

I have a little problem doing following.

I have a site with a horizontal menu, and want to display the submenues in a left box right under.

How can I do that? (I also don't want the submenues to be displayed in the horizontal menu)

Thanks

Open menu manager and read the help.

Or do a search on the site, there are many answers to your question.

Hi,

I dont think you have enough knowledge to change a menu around. Maybe you should choose a different template that already contains a menu in the way you like it.

There is a default template that holds that logic.... "Top simple navigation + left subnavigation + 1 column"

In short, for the horizontal you pass "number_of_levels='1'" to make it only show 1 level. For the second call, you pass "start_level='2' " to make it only show children of the selected parent of the horizontal menu.

So just 2 {menu} calls.

This is one of the many advantages of reading all the pages of the default install, there is a page devoted to telling you exactly how to do this...
