I would like to have Wayfinder output a menu for my nav which consists of images for links. Each link uses a different background image. Is it possible to use Wayfinder for this menu? I’m supposing that I would need Wayfinder to output a unique class or ID for each link. Ideas?
Wayfinder will generate a unique ID for each link.
The ID # of the document will be added to the id you specify.

Oh, very cool. Thanks!
Another thing I’m interested in learning is how does one use wayfinder with Weblinks? I set the starting ID as a weblink and wayfinder doesn’t output anything. Any idea? Thanks again!
That’s because the startId is the ID of a container/document and Wayfinder makes its menu out of the children of that document. Does your weblink have children (that is, it’s also a "folder" or "container" document)?
As far as how Wayfinder actually makes links for weblink documents, it uses the actual content of the document to make its link. If the content is a number (the ID of another MODx document) it generates the correct URL for that document. If it is a URL already, then it siimply uses that.

Hate to revive an old topic but this seems like it is on the path I am looking to follow.
I to wish to have images instead of text and have rollover images. Problem is I don't understand how to translate this into use. I have read over the manual and the explanation above, but fail to see how this connects to my menu, I have a limited knowledge of the menu system in ModX to begin with.
