    Is there any way of limiting the number of resources that can be placed within a container?

    (If the answer is yes, the approach I'll take for the generation of certain rich nav submenus will be simplified...).

    Thanks!

      You might be able of putting something together with a plugin (OnBeforeDocFormSave, check the number of children in the chosen parent, change it or return an error) but there's nothing for that out of the box.

        Ah, yes. Thanks Mark, that's the approach I'll take.

        Cheers!

            I will most certainly post it - first, for comments/tomatoes, then for whatever purpose it can be used for... smiley
