XF 2.1 Add Forum List to Forums navigation bar? How?

[gogo]

A picture explains what I mean:



America, Europe, Asia are categories. Forums list could be multi-leveled.

admin.php?navigation/

admin.php?navigation/

Trying, but can't get what I want..

admin.php?navigation/

He wants an entire node list available in that dropdown menu.

Exactly.

Actually I did that before.. I didn't need to add nodes one after one manually which would be a disaster. There's something that can show all nodes (with proper view permissions)..

But I forgot what I've done now.

Quote from @Mike (I guess his statement for XF1 also works for XF2, unless he gives a different opinion here):

No I didn't even touch the template last time. I just add a new Navigation tab which shows all my nodes.

There got to be something on this page that I need to change. I forgot whether I used Basic or Node and what value I used if it's Basic.

 

[gogo]

is there something like {$xf.nodeList}?

Type: Basic
Link: {{ link('forums/list') }}

 

[gogo]

Type: Basic
Link: {{ link('forums/list') }}

It takes me to /forums the forum list page but not showing the node tree in the navigation tab..

Type: Basic
Link: {{ link('forums/list') }}

OP (gogo)'s request definitely is a recursive matter. One single link may not be able do this well, I am afraid.

So then create each navigation item manually. If all this is automated, then there is already an add-on that would collect all this.

Only XenForo 1.x has such addon: https://xenforo.com/community/resources/nodes-as-tabs.9/

Check 'Display children in navigation'.

Is there a way to append this menu to the "Forums" dropdown menu (like what shown by OP at the beginning of the current thread)?

 

[Paul B]

Set the parent entry as 'Forums'.

I tried it just now. But for the Node part, I can only choose one of the categories/forums which shows only that part of the node tree. What if I want to show all categories and forums?

It will only display a specific selected category

All nodes need to be under a single master category in order to show them all with a single navigation entry.
