#solved# SM2 challenge question: show siblings only from different menu's

<< < (3/4) > >>

Boudi:
Ok. I give up. After tens of hours testing I come to the solution that what I want is simply not possible.

With SM2 it's not possible to:

- create seperate 1 level deep menu's from 1 menu
- to show only siblings/childs  from multiple menu's on a different location

Reason why this is so important is when it WAS possible I don't have to create 7 different templates. My intention is to create a website with only 1 template in which the menu's and siblings create the structure.

Still hope for a solution.

Regards,

Boudi

Have you tried putting every page into one menu and then rooting the first two menus by page_id to get those.

And for the final one to use conditional formatting to assign an "invisible" class to items you don't want so the rest show.

Again, I can't give a clear answer since I can't see the full menu structure from here.

Yes I did. The problem that comes up is that from 1 menu the childs are getting visible on the other location. It seems (correct me if I'm wrong) that SM2 cannot handle this structure in order to achieve to show the childs only from different ID menu's. Looks like it's conflicting with itself.

I worked with hidden ID's too, same issue.

Regarding the full menu structure, I can give a screenshot, but since I changed the structure so many times in order to get it to work what you see is just 1 menu with some pages with childs. :)

Okay, how's this:

Home
P1
--PP1
----PPP1
----PPP2
--PP2
--PP3
P2
--PP4
--PP5
P3

So, out of that, what you you want for the third menu?

Boudi:
I think the best way is to experience it by yourself. I can PM you for the url if you like.
