Need some help with additional menu
31 August 2011 at 10:21pm
Hi there,
I am desperately trying to get an independent menu on my webpage to work.Referring to this post:
http://www.silverstripe.org/general-questions/show/5822
I implemented the following in the mysite/code/Page.php:class Page_Controller extends ContentController {
function Menu3(){
$whereStatement = "ShowInTopMenu = 1";
return DataObject::get("Page", $whereStatement);
}And in the navigation.ss I have written:
<ul>
<% control Menu3 %>
<li class="$FirstLast $LinkingMode">
<a href="$Link" title="$Title.XML"><span>$MenuTitle.XML</span></a></li>
<% end_control %></ul>All I get is:
Server error
Sorry, there was a problem with handling your request.What am I doing wrong?
Any hint would be really appreciated.

Hi,
What's the error message when you run your site in dev mode?

Hi, it says:
[User Error] Couldn't run query: SELECT "SiteTree_Live"."ClassName", "SiteTree_Live"."Created", (...)
AND (ShowInTopMenu = 1) ORDER BY "Sort" Unknown column 'ShowInTopMenu' in 'where clause'I have no idea what that means.

Seems like you did not run dev/build did you define ShowInTopMenu in your model?

Did you ever create the ShowInTopMenu field? Only then does /dev/build/?flush=1 actually create the field in the database. The following example adds a new checkbox to the Behaviour tab on each page in the CMS, where you can then check the pages you want in the topmenu...
It comes from the recipe in the link you'll find in the topic you got your example from...
class Page extends SiteTree {
static $db = array(
"ShowInTopMenu" => "Boolean"
);function getCMSFields() {
$fields = parent::getCMSFields();
$fields->addFieldToTab("Root.Behaviour", new CheckboxField("ShowInTopMenu", "Show special menu "));
return $fields;
}
