Category menu with multiple nesting levels
Hi guys,
A client of mine wants to be able to basically have an unlimited number of nesting levels to his categories, that also need to be dynamic, since site’s structure isn’t yet fully known.
Basically I am looking into something along these lines:
- category
- category
-- subcategory
---subsubcategory
----article in subsubcategory
----article in subsubcategory
----article in subsubcategory
- category
-- subcategory
---article in subcategory
---article in subcategory
---article in subcategory
---article in subcategory
…So articles can appear directly within category, subcategory, subsubcategory, and so on. Any known way of doing this?

Re: Category menu with multiple nesting levels
Once you’ve created some categories under the category tab, you can click on them them and assign them to parents. For example, if category A were made the parent of categories B, C and D, then A would be the main category and B, C and D would be the subcategories. You can go a step further and make a subcategory the parent of a subsubcategory.

Re: Category menu with multiple nesting levels
I know that of course, I needed a way to display them with that same hierarchy.
Finally I achieved that by using stw_category_tree plugin.
