I usually use a clean URl solution like “sgb_url_handler” or “gdp_permlinks” to do /section/category could you add a clean=“1” attribute to output category links in this format?
I tested with “gbp_permanent_links” – i think there will be no work required for my part. If you set up a permlink-rule that looks like this: “section/category/” – via the permlink-admin-interface of this plugin – it all works. “zoo_section_and_category_list” then automatically produces links like “http://dev.test.de/Section/Category/”.
It seems to me, that of 4.0.5 “sgb_url_handler” isn’t working (i also read some threads here stating just that). But i think / hope it it is the same as above (not requiring any modification to “zoo_section_and_category_list”).
So, after all – i think no “clean” attribute is neccessary.
Since i am only using 4.0.5 – if anyone uses “zoo_section_and_category_list” successfully on former versions, a quick “hello – it works in X.X.X” would be nice.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] zoo_section_and_category_list
This is a great plugin, and it almost does what I need it to :)
Is there any way I can make it output a nested unordered list? Setting wrap to ul and break to li gives me:
<ul>
<li>Section A<li>
<li>Category</li>
<li>Category</li>
<li>Section B <li>
<li>Category<li>
</ul>And what I need is:
<ul>
<li>Section A
<ul>
<li>Category</li>
<li>Category</li>
</ul><li>
<li>Section B
<ul>
<li>Category<li>
</ul><li>
</ul>I realize this a quite specific request, but this would make it possible to make standard dropdown menus work with this plugin…

ooh kemie’s request is a sound one. i’d love an option for nested ul’s as well. sounds like a tricky implementation though.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] zoo_section_and_category_list
I like kemie’s idea, but the way Textpattern works might make it an iffy way to organize navigation. There’s no way to dictate that a category “belongs” to a particular section, so one could end up with “Category 1” in “Section A” and “Section C.” This is less likely for a site maintained by one person or a small team, but larger sites with many contributors would need some tight editorial control to keep the desired navigation scheme.
Another way to get a hierarchical site structure is by using categories and subcategories. This might be a better option for some kinds of sites.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] zoo_section_and_category_list
Hi, looks like an awsome plugin, my only query is.. does it do more that one sub categorie. I.e;
Students Exam Timetable Homework Homework Timetable Canteen Menu Clubs and Activities Competitions Image Gallery Art Clubs and Activities Maths Primary Sports Day Sixth Form Visits and Trips Web Design Challenge Links/ log-ins E-mail Network SAM Learning Student Bodies The School Day Parents
Thanks

Textpattern Warning: tag does not exist on line 983
I can’t get this to work, which is a shame. It looks promising.
Any ideas?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] zoo_section_and_category_list
looking at the plugin, <txp:zoo_section_list /> doesn’t actually look like a tag. the only two i see are <txp:zoo_category_list /> and <txp:zoo_section_and_category_list />
im assuming zoo_section_list was something preliminary and arnski just hadn’t updated the forum post to reflect that. as you can also see in the plugin help section, it carries no mention of zoo_section_list and only the above two functions (with txp:zoo_section_and_category_list> being the main one to use i assume)

Me too. after getting this working, I’d really like to see it bent so that it outputs nested unordered lists…

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] zoo_section_and_category_list
Hello fellow Textpatterners –
Iblastoff is right – some old help must have slipped into the forum-post.
I have just updated the post. So it should now match the help from the plugin itself.
I will have a look into the nested lists soon – and also some of the other requests will get looked at.
Cheers, Arnski
