Multiple autonavs

Permalink
Hi,

First post and first site with Concrete so I know I'm going to just ask loads of dumb questions and make you all grown.

I'm building a site for a client and it is to have 3 levels of nav:

1. Main Nav. This is fixed and will not change so does not need to be editable or be able to be added to. There are 4 sections.

2. Sub Nav. Each of the 4 sections has its own subnav. This does need to be editable and added to when someone creates a page in that section.

3. Sub nav 2 (electric boogaloo): This might be for sub sections under certain items in the above menus.

So what I'm asking is if its possible to have 4 autonavs that would be different for each section and be added to when some one adds a page in that section (but wouldn't appear in the other sections). Or is this a silly way to do it?

Wow, that was more complex to explain than I thought.

Thanks very much in advance for your help.

You can use autonav for all your menus, but if you want a static nav for main then I suggest you try out Jordans 'Manual Nav' add-on: http://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/manual-nav/...

For a deeper understanding of the autonav and how to set it up correctly, I suggest you read this how-to (which still apply despite the age of the article): http://www.concrete5.org/documentation/how-tos/editors/primer-auto-...

Hi,

Sorry for the late reply, very rude. Thanks for the links. It's taught me a lot about the abilities of autonav.

I still can not seem to figure out how to display a third level of navigation though.

I have the top level and then the second in a side menu. The third needs to be added under the relevant second level nav in this side menu. Is this possible?

So would look something like this.

Option 1
---Option 1.1
---Option 1.2
Option 2
---Option 2.1
---Option 2.2
Option 3
Option 4

I hope that makes sense!!!!

Thanks again!

It would be easier if you could link to the site or supply screenshots.

Have you tried with all options available? Show all subpages?

You can send me an email and I can have a look at it in about 16 hours. I currently don't have computer access (on the phone now) so I won't be able to help you until tomorrow.
