simplemenu - number of layers

[mcschulz]

I'm using simplemenu for navigation on my cmsms 0.9.2 site, which actually consists of three sites in one, each having its own design.

Since these three sites had their own subfolders I decided to install CMSMS three times, but now I'm wondering if it's possible to do this with just one installation and according to this just one admin-interface.

The different templates won't be three problem, even the news Script supports categories, so having three newspages won't be a problem as well.

But the navigation still needs a solution.

I thought of a startup-page that lets you choose between the three basic sites. When one site is loaded its navigation should only show a Home-Link ( back to the startup-page ) and the links which belong to this single site, but not those of the two sites you did not choose before.

Something like this:

1) Startup-Page

1.1) Site 1
1.1.1) Sub 1...

1.2) Site 2
1.2.1) Sub 2...

1.3) Site 3
1.3.1) Sub 3...

As soon as the user reached page 1.1 links to 1.2 and 1.3 shall not be displayed anymore.
On page 1 only the layer below but not all layers ( not 1.x.x ) shall be visible.

So I basicly need to know if there's a chance that this is going to work ( without too much trouble ), and some advice

hey,
i have a similar site iovadineva.com/beta

and i got the menu working by making 2 (in may case) section headers and making all the contect theur respective childen. then you  just set 3 templates and make the menu for each site only see siblings and chilndren.

works like a charm.

hope this helps.
