Collapsible menu in Section List

Hi cjpritchard,

If I'm understanding what your looking for, it's pretty simple once you get the hang of it.

1) Create the section editors (tables) that you need for your site either from scratch (single or multi record), from presets, or from existing section editors. (admin>section editors> add new editor)

2) Here's the trick. To create the collapsible menus, create an editor called a "Menu Group" from the advanced menu pull down. You must use a unique name for the section, but you can then change the "Menu Name" to anything you want to.

3) Drag any sections that you want to "collapse" under that menu group to below the Menu Group editor in the section editor list.

You can create as many Menu Groups as you need to. The section editors below any menu group will collapse under that group until they encounter another menu group. Then the process starts over again.

There's a lot more on these kinds of "tricks" in the recipes in my CMSB Cookbook http://www.thecmsbcookbook.com.

Hope that gets you started.

Thanks for your response, Jerry. I tried this over and over again, in all browsers, and then realized I had "Always show expanded menu ..." selected in General Settings. Alas, when de-selected, menus collapsed as they needed to. D'uh!

Thanks again,
Chris
