Separators! (or how to not ask a support question)

I have a menu that needs to look like this:

Item 1 - Item 2 - Item 3 - Item 4

How can I do this with wayfinder? Please, don’t just say "use the templating". A step-by-step tutorial would be very nice.

Please show us exactly what you want your HTML output to look like, and exactly what your document structure looks like. Makes all the difference in the world as to how your templates should be structured. You will be using the templates after all to achieve what you want.

I want it to look like this:

Link1 - Link2 - Link3

where Link1 to LinkX is a subdocument of a specific thing. It is for listing out a bunch of biographies, so the file structure thing looks like this:

Biographies
|-Link1
|-Link2
|-Link3

I guess....

Just out of curiosity, have you looked at any of the examples supplied with the latest Wayfinder 2 code?

I have searched extensively. Could you please just answer the question rather than yell at me for being a newbie?

Interesting how different people react. My mother was always telling me to go looks things up in a dictionary or encyclopedia, and I actually came to enjoy doing it. One of my kids would get angry, one would just shrug and drop the question altogether, while the other one also enjoyed learning how to find things out. I suppose it’s just coincidence that the first two have been in and out of prison a few times...

Wayfinder by default just puts out an unordered list. You can use CSS to manipulate the display of the list (see http://www.alistapart.com/articles/taminglists/.

Using a template, you can modify that behavior to suit yourself, adding whatever characters or text you want to each item.

For example, your rowTpl chunk template could be:

Then in your CSS, just have the li elements use display:inline to line up the items, as per the article in A List Apart.

Interesting indeed. Good call essentially calling the project founder a jerk for asking a legitimate question with a claim of me yelling at you. There actually is a chance that you didn’t understand the examples and might have had a question about them. Keep it up!

Note to other new users: This is a perfect example of how not to ask for support.

Maybe he just came from the mootools forum and was feeling sensitive...

LOL ... good point!

I didn’t search extensively, but I did manage to find this rather complete tutorial for each of the examples included in the Wayfinder 2 snippet package that kylej spent a lot of time creating on his site (and linked to from a prominent pinned topic in the Wayfinder forum):
