Determine site hierarchy level of current page

[pomfret]

Can someone explain how I go about determining if the current page's hierarchy level >=3?

I'm trying to add a secondary subtitle to pages that are 3 levels or deeper in the site page structure.

Thanks,

Do you mean the

$node->depth -- Depth (level) of this node in the current menu

parameter that is in the MenuManager to check its level?

I tried all the MenuManager options.  However, since the navigation is split across separate menu calls, MenuManager does seem to think anything is more than 2 levels deep (which would be correct at the point of the {menu} calls in the template).

What I'm thinking now is creating a UDT to split $gCms->variables['friendly_position'] into an array, then counting the number of items in the array to determine page depth (ie. 2.2 = two levels, 1.3.2 = three levels).  With all the other info readily available, I had hoped I was overlooking a much simpler method of doing the same.

OK.  So, I went the UDT route and seem to be in good shape.  I'd still be interested in hearing if there's an easier way to go about all this:

My UDT (get_page_position):

Code: Select all

global $gCms;
$hierarchy = count(explode(".", $gCms->variables['friendly_position']));
$smarty->assign('page_level', $hierarchy);

The, in my template:

Code: Select all

{get_page_position}
{if ($page_level gte "3")}
  {$cgsimple->get_page_menutext($cgsimple->get_parent_alias(),'')} :: 
{/if}
{title}
