I am just starting with CATS module and after classifying all my pages I am a little lost as to how I can now use all this wonderful hierarchical categorization.
So, first my example site:
CONTAINERS:
- Portfolio
- Services
- Company Info
under Portfolio I have CATEGORIES:
- Web
- Db
- Office
- Gov
and under that I have PAGES; which I classify under one (or more) CATEGORIES
- Site1 - under Web,Gov
- Site2 - under Web
- Site3 - under Web,Db
MENUS:
========
The first thought was I should be able to (and figured automatically?) get some menus:
- should I not, now, be able to (automatically) get the following menus:
Portfolio
- Web
--- Site1
--- Site2
--- Site3
- Db
--- Site3
- Office
- Gov
--- Site1
AND, if I like, just a Web menu:
Web
- Site1
- Site2
- Site3
I see there is a cats_menu module but all I have been able to do was get Portfolio listed in menu. And now I can't even get that back (following DOC on Jeremy's site) - all I get are sql "duplicate entry" error messages (perhaps a bug in cat_menu module??).
Then I found this snippet http://drupal.org/node/21390 which gave a list of all categories (but regardless of containers):
so I guess block snippet approach is cool - but can someone suggest SQL for pulling out menu items for a specific Container or Category (I think the snippet here pulls out entire site.
