Totally nice plugin, really like it, but I have little problem.

Menu 1 *

Menu 1.2
Menu 1.3
Menu 1.4
Menu 1.5

Menu 2 *

Menu 2.2
Menu 2.3
Menu 2.4
Menu 2.5

Okey, that I made, but how to made menu, who works like this: When I’m in Menu1, then I see only Menu1 submenus, when I’m in Menu2, then I see only Menu2 submenus, like this:

——————————————————-

Menu 1 *

Thank you!

Version 1.2 available for download

section-specific article sort (for bg)
enhancement: adi_menu admin sections link to TXP section tab
fix: ampersands in article titles (thanks renobird)
fix: admin styling for Hive
now uses lifecycle events for install/uninstall, so TXP 4.2.0+ is now required

Try using current_children_only="1".

Thanks, gomedia it works!

How to get class to second and third menu level, like SUBMENU1 and SUBMENU2 ?

<ul id="navigation">
<li class=""><a href="/home">Home</a></li>
<li class=""><a href="/about-us">About us</a></li>
<li class="active"><a href="/contacts">Contacts</a>
<ul class="submenu1">
<li class="active"><a href="/contacts/main-contacts">Main contacts</a></li>
<li class=""><a href="/contacts/employers">Contacts of employers</a>
<ul class="submenu2">
<li class="active"><a href="/contacts/main-contacts/office">Office</a></li>
<li class=""><a href="/contacts/employers/workshop">workshop</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>

Now my menu code is like this:

 <txp:adi_menu current_children_only="1" active_li_class="active" active_ancestors="1" parent_class="" class="navigation" />

As you’re only listing submenus of the currently active section, you can use this for submenu1:

ul#navigation ul { ...}

And for submenu2:

ul#navigation ul ul { ...}

Alternatively, if you use list_id="1", you can target specific submenus, e.g.

ul#navigation li#menu_contacts ul { ...}

I can’t publish to default section no more. Is the last version of adi_menu?

Hi wornout,

OK, here’s the deal. You can’t assign articles to the default section, well, not in standard Textpattern anyway.

The ability was introduced in an early version of adi_menu (0.8 probably) and it’s a bug. In version 1.2, I introduced a mechanism that prevented this – it kicks in if there’re no existing articles in the default section. Websites that already have articles in default won’t be affected.

It’s been such a useful option, that has worked well for me, it’s taken a while to realise that it’s not allowed! Why shouldn’t the Home page have it’s own articles? Maybe I should ask one of my “Why does it have to be that way” questions.

Anyway, here’re the options when using version 1.2 & above:

For existing websites:
- Keep calm and carry on – if you’ve got articles in the default section then adi_menu will still allow you to add more. If there aren’t any, you won’t be allowed to go down that path
- Don’t panic – if you don’t like the idea of default articles then reassign them to a different section and adjust your home page accordingly. As soon as the last one is taken out of default, adi_menu will quietly hide the option
For new websites:
- Nothing to be seen here, move along now – you can’t have articles in the default section

Thanks for quick response Adi!
It’s not a big problem… but I use this hack always (I use adi_menu in every Textpattern installation) so I’ll change my work plan for future projects :)
Basically I think there are logical reasons!

Hi Adi

Is there a way of enforcing the global admin preference “Prevent widowed words in article titles?” when including article titles in the menus generated by adi_menu?

Cheers

Steve

Hi, Steve. In brief, yes – if I program one in! I’m away from Textpattern for a few weeks, so if you can be patient I’ll sort it out on my return.
