Silverstripe Extra Nav

This module provides some extra types (Secondary, Footer) of nav in the admin and views.

Requirements

• "silverstripe/framework": "~3.1.0"

Install

Composer

{
    "require": {
        "btlcreative/silverstripe-extra-navs": "master"
    },
    "repositories": [
      {
        "type": "git",
        "url":  "[email protected]:btlcreative/silverstripe-extra-navs.git"
      }
    ]
}

Manually

• Download a compressed version of silverstripe-extra-nav
• Unpackage in the root of your silverstripe project

Getting Started

• Run a dev/build
• From Views, you can access the dataobjects with $SecondaryNav and $FooterNav

Sample View Loop

<% if $FooterNav %> 
  <ul class="navigation">
  <% loop $FooterNav %>
    <li>
    <% if InternalLink %>
        <a href="$InternalLink.Link" title="Go to the $LinkText.XML page" class="$LinkOrSection">$LinkText</a>
    <% else %>
        <a href="$ExternalLink" title="Go to the $LinkText.XML page" class="$LinkOrSection">$LinkText</a>
    <% end_if %>
    </li>
  <% end_loop %>
  </ul>
<% end_if %>

Note

Would benefit greatly from a refactoring - first attempt at a silverstripe module.

Replace static methods

Replace static methods with something more dynamic so that it can allow users to name their own "nav"
