3 menu's in one website

Hi Folks,

I'm creating a website that actually needs 3 menu's......
I can create it with 1 menu and 2 newsboxes, but then a submenu is not working proper.

Here's an example of what i need. I'm talking about the 3 menu's on the left (not the one in the header right) http://cmsimple-xh.nl/layout.jpg.

I really wonder if this can be done in a way that the customer can always add pages to it if he wants.

Thanks already!

Hmm,

maybe a solution is possible by using the "category" feature of advancedtoc :?
http://cmsimplewiki.com/doku.php/addons/advanced_toc

But putting the newsletter form between the navigation parts won't be possible that way.

Somewhere on a old HDD I have a complete documentation of advancedtoc from Jens.
I'll drop you a line if I could find it...

EDIT: Ahh, just found it online: http://cmsimple-styles.com/cmsimplestyl ... vancedtoc/ :)

I have some doubts whether it's a good idea to use AdvancedTOC for new websites, see http://cmsimpleforum.com/viewtopic.php? ... 308#p46305.

Hmm, a refactored li-addon for 1.6+ would be better of course. But at the moment I'm not aware of another ready to run solution for this request.

If you take a look at the example: http://cmsimple-xh.nl/advancedtoc/ , there you can see the use of "category:Head category" and halfway the menu you see "catgeroy:Example category".
Is it possible to show an image instead of text on these places. Different images for each category?

Possibly this is an option via css nth-child
Example - add in advancedtoc.css - Images and size, etc. adapt accordingly.

Code: Select all

ul.menulevel1 > li:nth-child(1) > div.menuspacer {
color: transparent;
background-color: #008C37;
background-image: url(http://cmsimpleforum.com/styles/prosilver/imageset/forum_logo3.gif);
height: 70px;
width: 270px;
}

ul.menulevel1 > li:nth-child(8) > div.menuspacer {
color: transparent;
background-color: #164A8E;
background-image: url(http://cmsimpleforum.com/styles/prosilver/imageset/forum_logo3.gif);
height: 70px;
width: 270px;
}

AWESOME !!!! Great, perfectly !! Thanks Ludwig. Never to old to learn :-)
This is what i need!!
The only thing that i client can't do is add some pages (h1) in between..... Should there be a solution for that problem?
