  I don’t know what my problem is, but out-of-the-box, calling Wayfinder in any fashion, e.g.
  
  

  [!Wayfinder!]

  
  
  ..does absolutely nothing?
  
  Am I missing something? ...DropMenu used to work and output all links. Is there something special needed out of the box to enable WF?
  
  NOTE:
  I have the most recent SVN trunk installed, with All default snippets/chunks, as well. Wayfinder is present...?

  Call wayfinder like this:
  
  [!Wayfinder? &startId=`0`!]

  Rock on, Kyle!
  
  lol. That totally worked. Thank you!
  
  
  So, if you will, tell me this: I have created 2 chunks:
  
  topNavOuterTpl
  

  <ul [+wf.classes+]>[+wf.wrapper+]</ul>

  
  
  topNavRowTpl
  

  <li [+wf.classes+]><a href="[+wf.link+]">[+wf.linktext+]</a></li>

  
  
  Why does this method not work?
  
  

  [! Wayfinder? &outerTpl=`topNavOuterTpl` &rowTpl=`topNavRowTpl` &hereClass=`here` !]
  

  
  
  Hmmm... It appears this works:
  
  

  [!Wayfinder? &startId=`0` &outerTpl=`topNavOuterTpl` &rowTpl=`topNavRowTpl` &hereClass=`here`!]
  

  
  
  I bet it’s the spaces: [ !Way...

  Hi guys,
  
  Is it possible to change the sort order of the document ? Instead of displaying,
  - doc 1
  - doc 2
  - doc 3
  
  Display
  
  - doc 3
  - doc 2
  - doc 1
  
  like it’s possible with Ditto using &sortDir ?
  
  Thanks
  
  Edit : Also another question : Is it possible to display how many documents a folder contains ?
  For example :
  
  - Folder 1 (3 articles)
  - Folder 2 (15 articles) ...
  
  Thanks !

  I am planning on adding the sorting functionality, just need to set a new parameter for it.
  
  I will look into the document counting idea.
  
  Thanks,
  Kyle

  no it’s the: &startId=`0`
  
  @ Ryan & kylej : Maybe it would be a good idea to let the Wayfinder snippet assume a startid of zero (like Dropmenu) instead of ignoring the entire call?

  Currently it uses the current page as the startId, so without the startId parameter you get a submenu for the current page. If the current page has no children, obviously you don’t get a menu. So, I guess I figured it was easier to tell people if they want a menu from the root to set startId=`0` instead of for a submenu use startId=`[*id*]`

  Kylej, how to get the document parent id to call it as &startId ?
  
  I display doc 23 (for example), which parent id is 22. I would like to call Wayfinder &starId=`22`. I tried with GetField snippet but doesn’t work
  
  PS : I didn’t say it before but very nice snippet with so much way to customize output with css... Nice nice, good job !
