Possibly this is answered at I would like to be able to customize, easily edit and have auth control over the side bar links which change frequently based on what projects and areas are "hot" and what projects are dead or completed and "cold" and no longer need top level links.
Also I would like this list to only "reveal' the groups that a user is authenticated to see I have this already functional in other page lists. So, obviously a page list will work, but I would rather not have to edit the page list string: (:pagelist group=-Pmwiki,-Site,-Team,-TODO*,-XToDo* list=group $g0=1 :) with a dozen groups manually entered groups, instead what would be really easy would be if we had a page called "Site.ActiveProjects" I might even make this open to a wider group of users who could edit out cold projects and add hot projects i.e. Main.ActiveProjects would be the page with the list and there we have a simple line delimited list of groups, where the assumed destination will be $Group.$Group, which is our default for home pages i.e. some where we have simple editable list: VisitorCare HTDE HTDE-MediaViewer WebContent-FAQ PageUpGrades Lexicon Cybertalk MailLists which results on a page list for what is currently manually coded into the side bar as: * [[VisitorCare.VisitorCalendar | Visitor Calendar]] * [[HTDE.HTDE | HToday Digital Edition]] * [[HTDE-MediaViewer/HTDE-MediaViewer | HTDE Media Viewer]] * [[WebContent-FAQ/FunctionalSpecification | Web FAQ Dev]] * [[PageUpGrades/PageUpGrades | Web Page Upgrades]] * [[Lexicon/Lexicon]] * [[Cybertalks/Cybertalks]] * [[MailLists.MailLists | Mail Lists Home]] Can we do this? I suppose comma delimited would also be just as easy where Site.ActiveProjects contained: VisitorCare,HTDE,HTDE-MediaViewer,WebContent-FAQ,PageUpGrades,Lexicon,Cybertalk,MailLists One envisions some kind of nested include-- of course the following can't possibly work, but gives the general algoritm we're fishing for: (:pagelist group=(:include Site.ActiveProjects:),-Pmwiki,-Site,-Team,-TODO*,-XToDo* list=group $g0=1 :) I would be willing to forego the custom "label" | Visable Link Text, on the side bare (which i have now) as I think that would be asking too much of a page list! I suspect there are several ways to peel and cut up this mango: with fmt with Site.LocalTemplates, but I would rather not be editing there or allow anyone else access to that page. I would also be content with a fmt= section on the Site.SideBar page itself, for now... but I don't know how to build it.
