Hi all,

I'm trying to create a menu tree that displays the links to the children pages directly under the parent link. For example if I clicked on 'tractors/machinery':

Home.

Parts/Accessories.

Tractors/Machinery.
- New Machinery
- Used Machinery

Workshop.

Contact.

Here is the code in my .ss file I have at the moment:

<ul id="Menu1">
   <% control Menu(1) %>
      <li class="$LinkingMode"><a href="$Link" title="Go to the &quot;{$Title}&quot; page">$MenuTitle</a></li>
   <% end_control %>
</ul>
			
		<% if Menu(2) %>
  <ul id="Menu2">
    <% control Menu(2) %>
      <li class="$LinkingMode"><a href="$Link" title="Go to the &quot;{$Title}&quot; page">$MenuTitle</a></li>
    <% end_control %>
  </ul>
<% end_if %>

Any help?! Cheers.

Try replacing the <% if Menu(2) %> with <% if LinkOrSection %>. The menu you are trying to achieve is similar to the default theme isn't it? You can use that as a good starting point.

Cheers Willr,

Yeah I've just been using the menu from the default theme and have edited the CSS so it's styled like a virticle tree style menu. I just tried chaning <% if Menu(2) %> with <% if LinkOrSection %>, still looks the same damnit. Any other advice?

Hi again, I'm still having trouble with this. Any help please?

ahhh ha, I've figured out a bit of the problem. My code in my Page.ss is as follows:

<ul id="Menu1">
   <% control Menu(1) %>
      <li class="$LinkingMode">
	  <a href="$Link" title="Go to the &quot;{$Title}&quot; page">$MenuTitle</a>
	  </li>
	  
	  		
		<% if LinkOrSection = section %>
  <ul id="Menu2">
		  	<% control GroupsMenu %>
  	    		<% if Children %>
			  	    <li class="$LinkingMode">
					<a href="$Link" title="<% sprintf(_t("GOTOPAGE","Go to the %s page"),$Title.XML) %>" class="$LinkingMode Nobottom">$MenuTitle</a>
	  	    	<% else %>
		  			<li><a href="$Link" title="<% sprintf(_t("GOTOPAGE"),$Title.XML) %>" class="$LinkingMode">$MenuTitle</a>
				<% end_if %>	  
	  		
	  			<% if LinkOrSection = section %>
	  				<% if ChildGroups %>
						<ul class="sub">
							<li>
				 				<ul>
								  	<% control ChildGroups %>
						  	  			<li class="$LinkingMode">
						  	  				<a href="$Link" title="<% sprintf(_t("GOTOPAGE"),$Title.XML) %>" class="$LinkingMode">$MenuTitle.LimitCharacters(22)</a>
										</li>
 				 					<% end_control %>
			 				 	</ul>
			 				 </li>
					  	</ul>
			 		 <% end_if %>
				<% end_if %> 
			</li> 
  			<% end_control %>
  		</ul>
<% end_if %>
		
   <% end_control %>
</ul>

My only issue is that it now formats like what is found on the left of this page http://www.designalt.co.nz/jml/tractors-machinery/

How can I make the 'new tractors, used tractors, etc etc..' use the Menu2 CSS formatting?
