[plugin] [ORPHAN] rdt_dynamenus - automatic section and article menus
Please check out rdt_dynamenus
I’ve used them to provide automatic section and article menus on several so-called static sites. I’ve also written an article, Building a static website with Textpattern, documenting a website building technique supported by the plugin.
cheers,

version .2 corrects a bug that prevented active articles from getting tagged.
I’ve also repaired the link to this plugin in the documentation, sorry ‘bout that — things just slip through.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rdt_dynamenus - automatic section and article menus
I’ve tried to use the plugin, but I am recieving the following error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: latts() in C:\src\txp_bccs\textpattern\publish.php(767) : eval()’d code on line 635
I’ve tried multiple combinations, however, nothing seems to work.

The rdt_dynamenus plugin requires at least Textpattern rc2 which is when the lAtts function appeared. You would need to upgrade, probably to rc3 at this point.
I’m sorry to say I didn’t look back at rc1 not realizing that the codebase is changing so much. In the future, i’m not sure what the right thing to do will be. Will it be safe to use Textpattern functions?
Sorry for your frustration,
HTH

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rdt_dynamenus - automatic section and article menus
yeah, one template.
it’s irritating, inelegant, to have multiple templates with only one difference or even to use multiple mdn_if_section tags.
bonus: here’s an example of an horizontal rdt_section_menu thru the grace of CSS: http://spiritofcj.org

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rdt_dynamenus - automatic section and article menus
rdtietjen,
nice plugin idea, wish it was around a month ago – I’ve done two semi-static sites in the last few weeks, perhaps could’ve used this. used mdp_sectionmenu and chh_article_custom on one of them, much as you’ve outlined.
an idea: swithching to – or having the option of – using categories instead of sections. I philosophically agree with Dean’s mindset – sections for navigation, categories for… categorizing; BUT, categories can be nested; at the moment sections can’t.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rdt_dynamenus - automatic section and article menus

It doesnt seem to work in RC3 in the Messy mode.
I am running the textpattern RC3 (OK, i am on my way of implementing it).
My site is in a subfolder: see http://kisd.de/~michael
and unfortunatly I have to run it in messy mode!
Any ideas?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rdt_dynamenus - automatic section and article menus
To add rc1 support, add the following code to the plugin.
<code> if (!function_exists('lAtts')) { function lAtts($pairs, $atts) { // trying this out as well foreach($pairs as $name => $default) { $out[$name] = isset($atts[$name]) ? $atts[$name] : $default; } return ($out) ? $out : false; } </code>

Hmm, doesn’t work for me.
I think you forgot a } in your code. But anyway, after i added this part, i dont get a erroro message, but i dont get the wished result either. (as you see on my homepage)
Just copy the code to the end of the plugin, or somewhere else?

What can this plugin do, that txp:section_list cannot ?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rdt_dynamenus - automatic section and article menus
I can’t name sections using underscore as described, i.e. “this_&_that” is changed in the presentation/section into this38that.
