Cant get to level2

Hi folks!

I have a little problem with wayfinder for my sub-navigation. everything works fine in the main navi!

heres my site tree:

-folder (not published) (6)
- Site1 (7)
-Sub site1 (8)
-Sub site2 (9)
-Site2 (10)
-Sub site1 (11)
-Sub site2 (12)

my main navi:

[!Wayfinder?&startId=`6`&level=1&outerTpl=main_navi&rowTpl=inner_navi!]

my sub navi:

[!Wayfinder?&startId=`6`&level=2&outerTpl=main_subnavi&rowTpl=inner_subnavi!]

i want the sub-navigation to show all the sub-sites of a main Site (f.e Site1), but I dont get the items from lvl2. Hope someone can tell me what I did wrong.

Don’t know if it’s a typo, but you should place all values between backticks ` `

So your call should be:

oh....forgot about that
Still it dont works the way i want it.

When Im on Site1 i want Sub-Site1, Sub-Site2 to appear in the sub navi, but i see the same navigation as i see in the main navi (Site1,Site2)...
I think its something with the level, i thought when i tell him &level=2 he takes all the sub sites and show them, but hes not doing so.

I’m no expert but I think you need to use SectionRoots.

That is how I did the navigation at olson.bz . Basically the wayfinder snippet keeps looking at the parent document until it finds one of the id’s listed in the SectionRoots call.

So in your case it would be a call something along these lines:

[!Wayfinder?&startId=`[[SectionRoots?Sec_roots=7,10]]`&level=`2`&outerTpl=`main_subnavi`&rowTpl=`inner_subnavi`!]

You can find the sectionRoots snippet in the resources. Another option could be to use the UltimateParent snippet.

Hope that helps,

Made my day Taff, SectionRoot did it
