Navigation and sub-navigation

Post by nils73 »

It looks like you can have a threaded navigation with at least a main navigation and one level sub-navigation. But what about 2, 3 or more levels of sub-navigation, i.e. something like this

--HOME
|
--ABOUT
|
--COMPANY
|
--TEAM

Question: is this possible (I didn't manage it) and if so, how?

What is the easiest way to make a menu item show it's on state in CMSMS?

Example..

Home / About / Contact

on the About page I want the nav to show as:

Home / About / Contact

This seems to be one of my first posts here ... this is far-out! ;-) But now I can probably answer my own questions (at least sometimes):

To have something like:

Home / About / Contact

or in HTML


  Home
  About
  Contact


you should add a class called "currentpage" to your link (if you use bulletmenu it will be automatically added):


  Home
  About
  Contact


and you should of course have a CSS where you have something like

a { text-decoration: underline; }
a.currentpage { text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; }


or whatever you would like your links to behave. I do not like this "cloaking" of links that are active, but things will be better when 0.12 is out with MenuManager as westis and others told me.

Regards,
Nils
