Menu help

Can anyone help with the creation of a menu system, I’ve tried and tried but nothing seems to work here its the problem http://fireblue.net/index.php?id=47

One of the ways to create a dynamic menu system (the main way that I believe most people do it) is to use the Wayfinder snippet. You can download a free guide here: http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php/topic,34176.0.html

Did you check the other website I gave you, plenty of examples there plus directions. You can also look through my beginner series, part 5 is all about Wayfinder and menus -> http://codingpad.maryspad.com/2009/04/05/building-a-website-with-modx-for-newbies-part-5-introducing-snippets/

Best thing is to start, place the basic Wayfinder call there and make sure it pulls the pages you have on your site into the menu. Then you can work on pulling the styles in. It’s not really very hard once you have the basic wayfinder call in place.

I can get the main thing to work but the main problem is that I have a lot of sub categories

home -> guides > internet -> etc.
home -> guides > computer -> etc.

Thanks for the stuff above I will try to come up with something
