clangstaff Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 Does anyone know of a way to easily embed a site's sub menu onto a page within that site. I am trying to streamline the navigation of a site for our Science department. See screenshot below.
Graham Quince Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 There are several themes which do this, Binder, Sidebar. If your staff want to stick with their current theme, you'll have to fake it with a Text widget menu. If you make another page, add the text widget to this page, then use the Nested Page widgets you can add it to all the other subpage quite quickly. If you're not concerned about updating these links often, then you can also copy and paste the text widget contents and the links will remain too. You're going to be excited (hopefully) by a new feature in Galileo* (next release after Christie). Sorry, I know you haven't got Christie yet and I'm going on about the next one. From that release onwards, you'll be able to embed a site within a site, so your menus will appear in the way you want #remembertabs *ETA mid-Feb 1
clangstaff Posted December 14, 2017 Author Posted December 14, 2017 @Graham Quince Cheers Graham - I have to say I'd had a look at the themes and although they'd get the menu there they don't really fit the style of the site or restrict the content area to a very small width. I will probably end up doing this in the text widget which I was also trying to avoid as this will be very time consuming to do for a few hundred links in total! I will look forward to Galileo!
Graham Quince Posted December 14, 2017 Posted December 14, 2017 @Chris.Smith Is there any way to do this with FrogCode? Pick up and duplicate a site's menu?
Graham Quince Posted March 23, 2018 Posted March 23, 2018 @Simon Law has turned this into a widget - thank you Simon It's the the Navigation widget and available to download from the showcase https://www.frogeducation.com/community/tutorials/frogcode/frogcode-showcase 1

How do I get it to only show some of the menu?? I get it needs to go in the "Start Navigation Path" bit but what do I need to put in it??
Graham Quince Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 @Simon Law - can you help with this please?
Simon Law Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 The start navigation path is the path found by inspecting the menu item you want to start from. <a href="#" data-link="/some/link/here/"> 1

Graham Quince Posted April 5, 2018 Posted April 5, 2018 OK - finally got a chance to rewrite the tutorial for the new widget: https://www.frogeducation.com/community/tutorials/html-tutorials/external-links I've left the original code in there too, but @Simon Law's widget makes it sooooo much easier
