Hi all,
I've been reviewing "menu" element and I think I don't fully understand
how this element works in J2 (especially, when used in combination with
specific directory structure) =/
So I have several questions:
1.- When a new user is registered, a new folder with its username is
created under "_user" directory. But I don't understand how
"breadcrumbs" menu knows that, when the user logs in, the new root
folder is "pages/_user/username/" instead of "pages/". And especially,
why the psml pages located under "pages/" are still displayed as if they
were located under "pages/_user/username/"? I've read something about
"invalid URI's", but I didn't get too much of it. Does it mean that any
psml located under any path containing a directory whose name starts
with "_" displays as if it were located under "root" (or a virtual root
specified by something -in this case the LoginPortlet-)?? Can anyone
explain this to me, please (with other words different from J2 docs if
possible)??
2.- Is it possible *not* to show an specific psml located in "pages/"
when I've logged in and my root is supposed to be
"pages/_user/username"??
3.- Supposed a menu defined, for example, this way:
<menu name="xxx">
<separator>
<text>yyy</text>
</separator>
<option regexp="true">/*/*.psml</option>
</menu>
this would create a menu:
- identified in J2 context by "xxx"
- labelled by "yyy"
- containing all the psml pages of all subfolders of the directory
where this menu is defined.
Is that true?? Am I missing something??
4.- Supposed the menu defined above, if I want to include it in my left
navigation column, could I achieve this just by defining an <include>
tag in the "page-navigations" menu defined at the top level?
Similar to this:
<menu name="page-navigations">
<include nested="true">xxx</include>
</menu>
This way, my left navigation column should show a navigation pane with:
- folders available
- all the psml pages that we wanted when we created the menu "xxx"
Am I wrong again??
5.- What if I want the menu "xxx" to be displayed in some tabs but not
in others of the same level?? Could it be done by defining the menu in
the psml code??
Thanks a lot in advance,
Enrique
