treemenu doesn't show up

Thursday 27 April 2006 2:50:21 pm

I have used the code sample under 'treemenu' in Documentation (http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/3_6/reference/template_operators/miscellaneous/treemenu) in my pagelayout, but nothing is generated. I have changed the code to the minimum, as follows:

<ul>
{def $mainMenu = treemenu( $module_result.path, $module_result.node_id)}
{foreach $mainMenu as $menu}
    <li class="level_{$menu.level}">
        <a href={$menu.url_alias|ezurl}>{$menu.text}</a>
    </li>
{/foreach}
</ul>

and still nothing. Is this code supposed to retrieve all subtrees in the system? What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for any help.

I had exactly the same problem, using the syntax provided in the Learning Exponential 3 book. I went looking, and found this response on a French forum (if you don't read French, take a look at the code near the bottom)

It isn't exactly the same, in that it only generates a menu from whichever node you give it, but it's very clean code, which I appreciate. Of course, you can substitute 'tree' for 'list' to get everything below the current node.
