Menu

[ccurle]

I have looked at the menu help and it is very confusing.

Here is what I need.

I have a home page with links

link1
link2
link3
link3.1
link3.2

What I want is for it to not show the children 3.1, 3.2 etc.

What I also want is if you go to link 3

The menu only shows:
Link3
link 3.1
link3.2

How would I do this?

[Deblus]

you turn these on and off in content / pages

then select a tick to show active page or an x to turn off and hide a page

reordering is by moving up and down with the arrows

There are two ways you can do this:

1. Different Templates

On the home page, use a command like this:

{menu number_of_levels="1"}

Create a new template for 'link3' pages, and use this instead:

{menu start_element="3" show_root_siblings="1"}

You'll probably end up making a lot of templates.

2. CSS

If you're using a list-based menu, hide all the children by putting this in your stylesheet:

li ul { display: none; }

To show children of a selected element, put this:

li.activeparent ul { display: block; }

You may have to play around with these a little, but option 2 is your best bet.
