What would be *really nice* is to be able to override the tree functions for an app to make this possible at a lower level - no publishing rules etc would need to be changed. This could, actually... this would, screw the admin. hrmm... maybe if you allow extension of tree.cfc but only use the extension for the display code. Would this work? I'll have a play and see if I can find a nice way to implement it =)

For the meantime, anybody have any other ideas?

Sounds like you need a multi-parented tree model. However, that will not work in the current Joe Celko Nested Tree Model we use for FarCry.


We've looked at multi-parented trees through the years and generally come to these conclusions... the trees are slow to render, very difficult to visualise as a GUI for contributors, and generally the multi-parented content confuses users. I'd think hard about the site's information hierarchy and see whether there is an alternative content approach.
