Is there a way to have a nav menu to show only subcategories

drswank · Post by **drswank** » Wed 28. Apr 2004, 22:36

I was wanting to know if there's a way that you can have a nav menu only show subcategories of a parent category. For instance, I have Category A listed under index (website start), I want to add other sub categories under category A. When I go to http://website/index.php?categoryA I would like to have the nav menu only show the subcategories of category A, not the entire tree of the index. Sorry if this sounds a little redundat, btw! Any help would be great!

hello swank!

you can do this!

with the {nav_table_column:X} X= structure ID where the navigation should start. it will show all whats below this ID.

so you can create multiple navigations

but if you wanna do this with graphics i think there is no other solution that you create for each it's own template. and then you call in each template the structure you want! hope you understand what i mean

Actually, I have another question. Is the structure ID the alias of the category? Also, I'm running version 1.1 RC2, is this nav menu option available in this version??

Thanks!

Pappnase · Post by **Pappnase** » Thu 29. Apr 2004, 01:50

yes it's also possible with the rc2 version!

no the id is not the alias! if you go with the mouse over the first icon before the structure name you will see the id!
