Multi level menu
I want to display muilti level navigational menu on the left hand side.
It is something like I have "Home", "My Reports" , "Sales" as the top level
folders, and each folder has subfolders and subfolders has sub
folders(another level). When logon to the portal, it should display the top
level folders. when click on any top level folder, it should just expand and
shows up the pages&subfolder init.
When I click on the top level folder , for example "Sales" it is taking to a
page where it displays subfolders and pages only. It is missing the parent
folders in the navigation menu.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Vasasree,
One hint: you can start by defining the 'page-navigations' menu in your
PSML until you get the idea. From there you can override the 'pages' and
'navigations' menus to suit.

Re: Multi level menu
Posted by Mansour Al Akeel <ma...@gmail.com>.
That's what I did in the past to get this working (this is straight from my old svn repo):
in the top level folder.metadata
<!-- temporary menu definitions for jscookmenu layout decorator; will be standard -->
<menu name="additional-links" regexp="true" options="/*.link"/>
in my decoration-macros.vm
#* include nested menu links navigation component *#
#macro (includeNestedLinksWithIconNavigation $_menu $_orientation)
#set($menuTitle = $_menu.getTitle($preferedLocale))
#set($menuName = $_menu.getShortTitle($preferedLocale))
#if($menuName)
<div class="pagetitle" title="$!menuTitle">${ menuName}</div>
#end
<div>
#foreach($element in $_menu.elements.iterator())
#if($element.elementType == "option")
#set($linkTitle =
$element.getTitle($preferedLocale)) #set($linkName =
$element.getShortTitle($preferedLocale))
#set($linkUrl = $jetspeed.getAbsoluteUrl($element.url))
#if($element.type == "page")
<div><a href="$linkUrl" class="LinkPage" title="$!linkTitle">
${linkName}</a></div>
#elseif($element.type == "link")
#set($linkTarget = $element.target)
<div><a href="$linkUrl" target="$linkTarget" class="Link" title="$!linkTitle">
${ linkName}</a></div>
#elseif($element.type == "folder")
<div><a href="$linkUrl" class="LinkFolder" title="$!linkTitle">$linkName</a></div>
#end
#elseif($element.elementType == "menu")
#includeNestedLinksWithIconNavigation($element $_orientation)
#elseif($element.elementType == "separator")
#set($separatorTitle = $element.getTitle($preferedLocale))
#set($separatorText = $element.getText($preferedLocale))
<div class="pagetitle" title="$!separatorTitle">
${ separatorText}</div>
#end
#end
</div>
#end

Vasasree,
You need to customize the standard menu definitions using declarative menus.
There are many ways to do what you want, but you need to experiment
until you get close. I'll be happy to answer specific questions, but
best that you forge ahead in your environment first.
