Using Wayfinder &where with dropdown submenus

I am building a navigation for my site and I am using the &where parameter to include specific resources. But it only displays the top level menu items NOT the dropdowns. How can I include the dropdowns?
This is my Wayfinder call:

Can you show the code for your &rowTpl=`navigationRows`?

If your &where is just selecting a list of resources by their id number then it might be simpler to use &includeDocs instead

Thanks for your reply, Andy.

What I trying to do is display certain resources in my top navigation (including their child pages, as dropdowns on hover) but exclude other pages in this top menu. I would like to do it without using resources IDs if possible, so that when an admin adds a page it is automatically added to the top menu without me having to update the call with an ID.

Hope this makes sense.

I am unable to post any code unfortunately. It errors

If I understand what you are trying to do then could you achieve it by just using 'hide from menus' on the top level items you want to exclude.

Yes I thought of that but I also have a navigation in the footer area, so if I use 'hide from menus' then the navigation items are hidden there too- which is not what I want.

This is my top menu if it helps to understand

I don't know if this would be practical but in your footer Wayfinder call you could tell it to ignore the 'hide from menus' instruction.



Setting this to 1 ignores the "Show in menu" checkbox for documents, and includes them in the menu anyway. The default is 0.
