2nd sub navigation (3 level global nav)

#1

Hi all,

Trying to find out how to have multiple level navigation. As it stands I have the main level and a sub level, but I am wanting to have a 3rd level. I’m sure its easy, but I am struggling to locate anything.

Here is the code of the global nav currently:

            <!--@@ =============== Global Nav Start =============== @@-->
            <mysource_area id_name="nav" design_area="menu_normal" cache="yes">    
                <mysource_set name="unwanted_asset_types" value="file" />
                <mysource_set name="settings.class.normal" value="normal" />
                <mysource_set name="settings.class.current" value="active" />
                <mysource_set name="settings.class.hierarchy" value="active hierarchy" />
                <mysource_set name="show_subs" value="always" />
                <div id="navbar" class="navbar-collapse collapse">
                    <ul class="nav navbar-nav">
                        <mysource_asset>
                            <li class="<mysource_print var='settings.class' />"><mysource_print var="asset_short_name_linked"/></a>
                                <mysource_sub design_area="menu_normal">
                                    <mysource_set name="unwanted_asset_types" value="file" />
                                    <mysource_set name="settings.class.normal" value="normal" />
                                    <mysource_set name="settings.class.current" value="active" />
                                    <mysource_set name="settings.class.hierarchy" value="active hierarchy" />
                                    <mysource_set name="show_subs" value="always" />
                                    <ul class="dropdown-menu dropdown-menu-hover">
                                        <mysource_asset>
                                            <li class="<mysource_print var='settings.class' />"><mysource_print var="asset_short_name_linked"/></a></li>
                                        </mysource_asset>
                                    </ul>
                                </mysource_sub>
                            </li>
                        </mysource_asset>
                    </ul>
                </div><!--.navbar-collapse-->
            </mysource_area>

See how you’ve nested the mysource_sub inside to get the second level? To get the third you just nest another mysource_sub inside the one you’ve already got. And to get a fourth nest another one, just keep on nesting for as many levels as you need.

Thanks for the reply Tim.

I see what you mean, but cant seem to get it displaying properly. It appears behind the sub links, rather than being hidden until hovering over the parent.

Is this something I have to fix with CSS, or can it be done in the parse file?

Thanks,
Lance

Yep, that is all your own custom HTML and CSS styling that you can use to control that behaviour.
