Creating sublevel menu on static site

Dear all,

I am trying to set up a company site using Txp, and I have searched all documents and forums and topics I can think of, to get a clue on how to make sublevel menues. (several levels requested…)

I can not use the link tab to create sub menues, right? Because when creating a link in the form of “/section/subsection/” I only get 404.

I must do this some other way, but how?
Or is it at all possible to create sub levelse?

I have a clue it should somehow be done with sections and/or categories… but how?
The articles get presented in the URL as “www.mysite.com/section/article”, so I think it would be possible to get URL:s as “www.mysite.com/section/subsection/”. But how?
And if possible – how many levels is it possible to create?

Please bear with me – I am all new to Txp, not knowing php or programming at all, having problems with the tecnical english, so please be kind and extensive … :-ı

Re: Creating sublevel menu on static site

  1. There are no subsections in TXP yet
  2. Were there subsections, you’d need one of the URL scheme plugins to do so gdp_permalinks or sgb_url_handler.
  3. Then you’d need the “section” equivalent of stw_category_tree to display a nested list

You could however use categories for your structure and use #3 from above

Re: Creating sublevel menu on static site

Thanks for your quick reply!

Obviously 1 and 2 does not apply…

So… I can use categories (to get one more level?), with the help of 3.
But what does 3 mean? What is it? Is it a plug-in?
How do I implement it?
