Hi all
I’m new to modx (changed 3 weeks ago) and I know this kind of question has been posted before (I’ve read everything), but I’ve already spent 6-7 hours trying to make it work.
Modx is truly amazing and powerful, but… ya…
The navigation is the most important part of each site. Believe-me, I’m working as web-usability consultant (yeah, I’m not very good at coding, only at… blah blah

) for a Swedish official organization. This question though is related to a… private matter.
I have a site with a tree like menu structure, where some of the main folders (these are top level) have 2 to 4 sublevels. By default, all the elements in the menu are shown. I’ve applied some CSS found on this forum, so only the active menu’s children are shown. That’s still very confusing.
Is there a way to show only the main elements of the menu and only the immediate children of the active menu?
Example:
Main menu 1
Main menu 2
Main menu 3
Child 1
(this child has also children, but they are hidden, until it becomes active)
Child 2
(this child has also children, but they are hidden, until it becomes active)
Child 3
SubChild 1
SubChild 2
SubSubChild 1
SubSubChild 2
SubSubChild 3
SubChild 3
Child 4 (this child has also children, but they are hidden, until it becomes active)
Main menu 2
……………..
I know that CSS is the best way to do this (at least, according to this forum), but can CSS solve this also?
Thanks for any help

May I suggest for the next version, a truly Tree Menu structure, controlled programmatically?
