Best way to hide some menu item
12 January 2012 at 3:52am
Hello
I have this scenario where a website has 2 main section (A and B) those are not part of the menu they are hardcoded (maybe they should be)
Their main menu is common exept for 2 or 3 items that changes or dissapear . So my question is is there a best way to dynamicaly hide some menu item depending on a global variable or something else
If someone could give me a link to some doc or tutorial I could use for that it would be greatly apréciated
Thanks

You can hide given pages in the CMS by unticking the 'Show In Menus' checkbox under the behaviour tab.

Hello Willr.
I just saw your answer.
I can not do it like that, because the visiblity of my menu item depends on wich section A or B I'm. Those sections are not a menu level in my scenario they are defining a global variable to select the visible and not visible menu item.
Thanks

You could define something like this on your Page class
public static $db = array(
"HideFromMenuA" => "Boolean",
"HideFromMenuB" => "Boolean"
);Then for your main menus something like this for Menu A
<ul>
<% control Menu(1) %>
<% if HideFromMenuA == 0 %>
<li class="$LinkingMode"><a href="$Link" title="Go to the "{$Title.HTMLATT}" page">$MenuTitle</a></li>
<% end_if %>
<% end_control %>
</ul>And this for Menu B
<ul>
<% control Menu(1) %>
<% if HideFromMenuB == 0 %>
<li class="$LinkingMode"><a href="$Link" title="Go to the "{$Title.HTMLATT}" page">$MenuTitle</a></li>
<% end_if %>
<% end_control %>
</ul> -

Thanks a lot
It looks great and simple.
The only problem I have now is how to trigger those bollean values with my 2 hardcoded buttons
Thanks

What do you mean by hardcoded buttons? Can you post your code?

Hello
These are two hardcoded button <a href> buttons in the Page.ss template
But I guess it is not the good solution as they could never relate to the bollean variables.I will first try to set up your code and see how it goes from there
Thanks for your help
