I want to set up a tactic section so i want to be able to setup subcategories. What i want it to do is have it like this: When dungeon1 is active is shows their sublinks
And when dungeon2 is active it shows their sublinks
But it doesnt seem like the e107 supports more than 1 sublink without altering some coding for it.Atleast i halt on it so it consider my subcategories to be sublinks and ignore their childs. Found a plugin that does sort of a fix but its based on javascript popup menus so it doesnt work well with the themes. Anyone know what to do? | ||

If so what I'd do in this case is create a "Tactics" section header, then create a "Dungeon1" forum with "boss1, boss2, boss3, boss4" subforums. Then create a "Dungeon2" forum with the same "boss1...bossx" subforum. Admittedly this is more work but it's also easier to navigate. When you go into the "forums" you'll get links for both "dungeon1, dungeon2, etc." but also to each subforum of that dungeon...thus if I know I need to look up tactics on General Vezax in Ulduar I scroll down the forum list to Tactics, find the Ulduar forum and click the "General Vezax" link from the forum front page which will be in small type under Ulduar. Easy and quick to get to. Now, if you're talking about menus (i.e. having a Main Menu item that opens up to sub forums" then you're pretty hosed. The "Main Menu" of e107 is something I've always had issues with. Personally, however, I don't think you're using the right tactic for it. IMO for something like this I would use either a forum setup as above or a wiki where people can add to or detract from as strategies change. --Illydth - Douglas Wagner - Site Admin | ||

Then set tactics with a link with no parents,dungeon1 as a link with parent to tactics and boss1 as parent to dungeon1. Found a plugin that handles it,but its pure javascript and it doesnt work well with themes | ||

I understand the reason to "custom page" it but you get REALLY limited by e107 pretty quickly in this regard. Their main menu leaves A LOT to be desired...you can't even setup "headers" in the main menu...very limiting. - Douglas Wagner - Site Admin | ||
