I have a site. It has a document tree like any other, but for some pages I want a different menu both up top and on the side. I began by creating a separate template for each page / menu type but since the templates are all the same but for 2 class names and the menu link, there has to be an easier way.
I am assuming that Template Variables would be the choice of a fix, but Iām not sure I understand how to do it. Anyone have an example of maybe 2 different links being pulled based on a TV? If not, what would I use to do it?

Use a TV to contain the menu snippet call. Have the default value of the TV be the usual menu snippet. Then edit the pages you want to have different menu snippets.
I do that changing only the class name in the body tag (i.e.: <body class="special_menu">) then you only need to create the apropiate CSS for your special menu like:
body #special_menu #other_child .... ul li { and here the apropiate CSS sentences...}
Hope this help,
