Nodes can be separated into categories, which can be defined in the Admin Control Panel options for this add-on.

Other options include checking viewing permissions for all nodes and limiting the number of children shown for...

What are categories in the options for? Also can you include a check box for forums that you don't want to be included in the menu? I would like this to be in the area where you edit forums.

And I would like an option to not show subforums.

Thanks for this one @Waindigo I'm attemting to create jump menus but it does return empty all the time.

For example for the one value 35 and the other Bölüm

Once you have created a category, you need to add nodes to the category by editing the nodes you want.

Everytime I try to save it, it deletes the text in the text boxes. If have a category named "2DMods" then what would I put in the text boxes?

Yes I see that picture but I still don't get it.

 

[Matthew Hawley]

Has anyone gotten this working?

@Stuart Wright maybe you could shed some light.

 

[Matthew Hawley]

Ah. I think I know what to do know. But there is still this problem.

Does this add queries or does it create a cached template?

Does this add queries or does it create a cached template?

It currently adds one query to every page (or two queries if you check permissions). Unless you have a huge number of nodes, this is a very small query.

It will be possible to cache the nodes query, but it will not be feasible to cache the permissions check.

It took me a couple of minutes to figure it out, but once I did it works great... with the default style. Arty's Soft Responsive doesn't show it - is there a known fix for that?

Edit template modification for navigation. Change search regexp to

#(<li class="navTab forums[^"]*)(">.*<a href="{\$tabs\.forums\.href}" class="navLink[^"]*)(">{\$tabs\.forums\.title}</a>)#Us

It expects <a> to follow <li>, but my styles use <xen:if> between it to change navigation behavior. That regexp change will fix that.

 

[Jon W]

Thanks. I will update the template modification.
