Can WB build dynamic menus from pages with multiple parents?

[varjak]

Hi folks,

I'm looking for a CMS solution that will allow us to maintain a collection of online documents, each a separate page.

The main requirement we have is that each of these documents could exist within a number of different categories (or sub menus - e.g. one document may exist in the scientists and americans and women section). So I need to be able to somehow tag these documents as belonging to a number of different parent menus and the menus dynamically reflect any changes to the document archive (additions/deletions and changes in categories).

It seems fairly straightforward requirement for a DB driven CMS to do but I've looked around the forums and at the modules available and can't find anything that confirms WB will do it.

Can you help please..

Thanks

in General that is not possible with WB. There might be a workaround, but you would need coding in the template. There is the menulink option which you could use. But you will need to extensivly maniputlate the menuoutput to make it work the way you want it.

This is the one thing that I really really miss in wb - I'll ask in the mod request section to see if anyone wants to take it on.

you could achieve this with the menu link, which you can link to internal and/or external resources. Which means, you can link to a page with a different parent ...
