| Hierarchical pages | April 5, 2006 @ 8:51pm | Maybe I'm missing something really simply, but I can't figure out how I can create hierarchical pages. I create a page that shows up in my menu on the left. How do I then create pages "below" that page, so that you get the breadcrumbs trails at the top of the pages, like:
Main Page 1 > Subpage 1-1 > Subpage 1-1-1, etc.
Thanks
Ron

Unfortunately that isn't an option with FlexCMS as of right now. We do plan to offer that in a future version.
It's worth noting that you can access the navigation menu area by changing the $LocationBar variable from a PHP-enabled page, however that most likely isn't what you were hoping for.

Mm, that's disappointing. I would think that's pretty basic functionality for a CMS. Will it be in version 2.0?
When I look at some of the showcase sites, they do seem to have something in place that creates a page hierarchy because their breadcrumb trails consist of multiple elements. How do they do that then?
Thanks

We have done some custom programming for several clients which are probably the sites you've seen. We have members who have also done similiar things using a series of php scripts. If you would like help creating something like this for your site, let us know and we'll try to assist you.
We do have this on our list for future development as we believe it will be a great feature for FlexCMS.
Thanks!

Essentially I have a "main page" called "Classes," which would be in the navigation menu on the left (that's easy enough). Underneath that, there would be separate pages for each class (say, "Class 1,", "Class 2," "Class 3," etc.). Each of these main class pages would have links to its curriculum, schedule, registration info, etc.
The breadcrumb trail for the "main page" would then be "Home > Classes," and the trail each of the classes would be "Home > Classes > Class 1," "Home > Classes > Class 1 > Curriculum," etc.
I would greatly appreciate any pointers to accomplish this. (Some basic PHP scripts would be great. I know my way around PHP well enough to modify them to my specific needs.)
Thanks!
Ron

As Kel/Otter mentioned, those other FlexCMS sites you've probably seen are highly customized, and use thousands of lines of custom code along with additional databases to do what they have there.
That said, you can create something more basic to accomplish what you're looking for. Essentially what those scripts do is access the $LocationBar variable, which you can do too through a PHP-enabled page. You can experiment with the code below and see where that gets you.
David
Code
$LocationBar = '<a href="'.$BaseURL.'">Home</a> > <a href="'.$MainURL.'/pages/listings.html">Listings</a> > '.$Title1; |
