Hi, well Chris and your answer now makes me wonder if i shouldn't just
use the navigation folder selector.

I now tried to use it and grasping the idea, with this in place i can
set each shopproduct to a certain nav node, then as Chris suggested
filter on current request.navid against the navid in the content
type's extra "linkNavigation" field value created by adding:

<cfproperty
  ftseq="4" ftfieldset="Redirection"
  name="linkNavigation" type="string"
  hint="Link to a navigation folder within the site." required="no"
default=""
  fttype="navigation" ftalias="home" ftrendertype="tree"
  ftSelectMultiple="false" ftlabel="Navigation Folder" />

Then i of course can repeat this approach for a custom dmimage... of
dmfile... if needed.

Thanks both.
