I am looking for code that will allow just the sub menu categories to appear that are directly below the selected record?

I am placing this within the content body on the page as bullet items so users can navigate to them that way.

Any help? I tried searching for it, but couldn't find want I needed - some posts just went on and on and got a bit confusing.

I have been searching for the same; a way to list sub-categories for a selected category. For instance, on the categoryindex page for a certain cat, I'd like to display the related subcategory names above the article title.

Hi drewh01,

The next release will have a new field called $record['_isAncestorSelected'] that you can test to see if a records ancestor is selected.

We'll be releasing that next week, probably Tuesday if not major issues crop up.

Hope that helps!

faribaa,

See the above post. We should have something that makes it easier to do that next week.

Hope that helps!

Now that the newest verison has been released, how would I implement this new function...or...I guess I should ask, what would the code look like to call the subcategories?

thx
