Structure Module - Segment 4 quirk
Development and Programming
I just came across this today, and I’m not sure what’s going on.
This is what my sub navigation looks like when the url has three segments:
This is what my subnavigation looks like when the url has four segments:
I have no idea what is going on. I tried altering the limit_depth and show_depth with no luck. The navigation expands for each item only when the url has four segments … weird. I’m sure I’m missing something simple.
Here’s my code:
{exp:structure:nav_sub start_from="/{segment_1}" show_overview_link="yes" limit_depth="2"}For a live view, you can see the site here: http://www.thelearninglamp.org/families/preschool/register/hyndman/
Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Because the site is live for the client, I made a temporary (hack) fix:
{if segment_4 == ""}
{exp:structure:nav_sub start_from="/{segment_1}" show_overview_link="yes" limit_depth="2"}
{if:else}
{exp:structure:nav_sub start_from="/{segment_1}/{segment_2}" show_overview_link="yes" limit_depth="2"}
{/if}Note, this is not what I intended for the navigation on the segment_4 pages. Instead, I wanted something like
Nav Level 2 Item A Nav Level 2 Item B Nav Level 2 Item C – Nav Level 3 Item A – Nav Level 3 Item B —- Nav Level 4 Item A —- Nav Level 4 Item A Nav Level 2 Item D Nav Level 2 Item E
You shouldn’t need the depth parameter as only children pages will be revealed as you drill down. Or am I not understanding something?
I want all of the navigation for /{segment_1}/ to show on all of that segment’s pages, but when a particular child has sub-navigation items it looks like this: http://www.thelearninglamp.org/families/after-school-programs/
However, when you get more than three segments in the URL, ALL of the other nav items “expand” like the image link in my first post.
Also, if I don’t put limit_depth, all of the items expand as they do when you reach a url with a segment_4.
I’m confused.
I see. This looks like a bug that was fixed a version or so ago. Are you running 2.0.7? I’d upgrade if not.
I must have missed an upgrade. I realize now that I had notifications turned off. (Duh!) I’ll try it out, but I’m sure that will solve the problem. Thanks, Travis!
