Nested category and article navigation menu, restricted to a section
I am following the example here and I wonder if it’s possible to restrict the results to the articles within a section. It would be very helpful as I’m using sections to implement a bilingual site, each section hosting content in its respective language.
Here is the code:
<ul>
<txp:category_list children="0" break="li">
<txp:category title="1" link="0" />
<txp:article_custom section='<txp:section />' category='<txp:category />' break="li" wraptag="ul" limit="999">
<txp:permlink>
<txp:title />
<txp:if_last_article></txp:if_last_article>
</txp:permlink>
</txp:article_custom>
</txp:category_list>
</ul>It almost does what I need, except that all categories are printed.
Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Re: Nested category and article navigation menu, restricted to a section
Hi
I’m now working on a trilingual site (en,el,ru) so you are in luck:)
the way I went about it is that I created 3 sections named: en,el,ru and 3 categories with the same names as the sections. Under each one of the categories I created their sub categories and sub-sub categories after them. Here’s the menu script
<ul id="nav" class="sf-menu">
<li><a href="<txp:site_url />"><txp:if_section name="el">Αρχική</txp:if_section><txp:if_section name="default, en">Home</txp:if_section><txp:if_section name="ru">Главное</txp:if_section></a></li>
<txp:category_list break="li" wraptag="" parent='<txp:section />' exclude='<txp:section />' children="0">
<txp:category title="1" link="1" section='<txp:section />' />
<txp:category_list parent='<txp:category />' exclude='<txp:category />' break="li" wraptag="ul">
<txp:category title="1" link="1" section='<txp:section />' />
</txp:category_list>
</txp:category_list>
</ul>Yiannis

Re: Nested category and article navigation menu, restricted to a section
Thank you for your swift reply.
I have created two categories, named them like the sections (en/fr) than made the original categories, sub-categories of each en/fr category. The category list is indeed restricted to one language but there are no articles under them. Is this the designed behavior or am I missing something?

Re: Nested category and article navigation menu, restricted to a section
Hi,
the above code just displays the menu without any articles.
Do you get a list of articles after clicking on the category?
