show_children_of MenuManager

[giggler]

How do you change show_children_of to show only the first level and not any sub level?

There are a lot of parameters inside modules help !!!

Search for number_of_levels.

Yeah, I tried that and when I use this it works, but shows the child of the start page:

Code: Select all

{cms_module module='menumanager' start_page='Parents' template='show_children_of'}

When I use this with the number of levels, it gives me a blank space, no menu at all.

Code: Select all

{cms_module module='menumanager' start_page='Parents' template='show_children_of' number_of_levels='1'}

Please post the template.

I just got this from the doc area. So maybe I just don't know what I need to change to get that to work.

Code: Select all

{if $count > 0}
{foreach from=$nodelist item=node}
{if $node->index == 0}
{assign var="icon" value="house"}
{elseif $node->haschildren == true }
{assign var="icon" value="folder"}
{elseif $node->haschildren == false }
{assign var="icon" value="page"}
{/if}
{if $node->index != 0}


<li><a href="{$node->url}"{if $node->target ne ""} target="{$node->target}"{/if}>{$node->menutext}</a></li>
{$node->titleattribute}
{/if}
{/foreach}
{/if}

Are you sure template is complete?

In the first part I can see some assigns for var icon but it isn't used in the second part ...

I'm clueless on this one. I just got the code from here:

http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php ... hildren_of

[cyberman]

Code: Select all

<li><a href="{$node->url}"{if $node->target ne ""} target="{$node->target}"{/if}>{$node->menutext}</a></li>
{$node->titleattribute}

You should be sure to copy complete template - found this

url}"{if $node->target ne ""} target="{$node->target}"{/if}>{$node->menutext}

{$node->titleattribute}

I took that off since I don't need any icons. The menu shows, but it shows children of children as well and when using number of levels, the menu does not show at all. I would like to have only the first level of the menu shown. Any ideas?

Why you wont use MenuManagers template "simple_navigation' ?

That's IMHO all you need ...

Call it with parameter number_of_levels='1'.

[giggler]

I used that before and the shows the parent link as well:

parent
sub 1
sub 2
sub 3

Finally, I changed the level to 2 from 1 and it works the way I want it to now. I didn't think it counted the parent as a level, so I was using 1:

Code: Select all

{cms_module module='menumanager' start_page='Parents' template='show_children_of' number_of_levels='2'}

Thanks for your help - otherwise I would have given up and left it as is!
